Abstract

In this chapter, advances in water treatment by microfiltration, ultrafiltration (UF), and nanofiltration (NF) are explained in detail. General information about membrane processes and the membrane global market is given. In addition, pretreatment methods are compared. Novel membrane materials are explained and compared with conventional membrane materials. Novel membrane moduleconfigurations explained in detail. Microfiltration, UF, and NF membrane applications for water treatment are given in the last part of the chapter.
