Editorial Reviews

This handbook emphasizes the use of synthetic membranes for separations involving industrial or municipal process streams. In addition to the classic membrane processes--microfiltration, ultlrafiltration, reverse osmosis, gas separation, and electrodialysis--chapters on enzyme membrane reactors, membrane fermentors and coupled transport membranes are included. The preparation of synthetic membranes and process design and optimization are also covered. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
