ULTRAFILTRATION MEMBRANES BASED ON PES-PEG BLOCKCOPOLYMERS

摘要

Although subject to research for decades, fouling is still one of the major limiting factors in membrane applications. Numerous methods have been suggested to overcome this shortcoming, like crossflow filtration, backflushing, air sparging, all of them in combination with chemical cleaning. However many of these techniques imply off-production cycles, resulting in lower yield, shorter lifetime of membranes and therefore higher costs.
