In the field of process engineering, the term "process intensification" includes measures to improve the efficiency of a process drastically. The improvements may include, for example, an increase in the space-time yields of a system, a significantly higher energy and / or raw material utilization or relate to a new product or new product qualities. A process intensification may involve different concepts and measures, which are explained in the introductory part of the following article. Based on the specific properties of the membrane process is shown later that with the use of membranes a process intensification was associated mostly. Frequently thus could also be created new products and/or product qualities.
