✦ Synopsis

This book covers the ultrafiltration membranes, specifically focusing on the elements that are produced using PVDF technology and out-side-in configuration. It specifically targets ultrafiltration technology as a pretreatment of seawater reverse osmosis desalination process. However, what is described in the book can be leveraged in other ultrafiltration membrane types. It explains how to significantly improve the efficiency of the process.

• All the findings are validated through real plant data.
• This increases the process efficiency to 98% and lead to 7% cost reduction in the ultrafiltration process.
