Electromembrane processes,efficient and versatile tools in a sustainable industrial development

摘要

Electromembrane processes such as electrol-ysis,electrodialysis,diffusion dialysis,etc.have experienced a steady but moderate growth since they made their first appearance in industrial scale applications about 30 years ago.Currently,the desalination of brackish water and the chlorine-alkaline electrolysis are the dominant applications of electromembrane processes.
