Abstract
The group of membrane processes is one of the numerous unit operation systems for separation. Within the separation processes, membranes play a more and more important role. Nowadays membranes are considered as strong competitors of “classical”, conventional separation techniques. Some types of separation processes, including membranes are summarised in Tab. 1 The separation methods are classified in terms of the physico-chemical properties of the compounds to be separated 1,2. It can be seen that membrane.process(es) can be found in almost every class.
