Membrane filtration is becoming the technology of choice in liquid separations around the world for applications including desalination, pretreatment, removal of suspended solids from water and wastewater, for membrane bioreactors as well as food and beverage processing. Advanced Ceramics for Photocatalytic Membranes: Synthesis, Characterization and Applications in Water and Wastewater Treatment reviews recent research on the application and use of advanced ceramic materials in photocatalytic membrane processes. Divided over five main sections, the first section discusses current developments in photocatalytic membrane processes. The second and third sections focus on synthesis and fabrication techniques using either physical or chemical approaches. The remaining sections cover diverse characterization methods and performance evaluations, followed by various types of environmental applications. The book is not only limited to the conceptual theory, but it also gives a detailed review of recent progress in materials science. It presents applications in different disciplines, i.e., chemistry, physics, and mechanics, that are critically required in modern science and engineering. The book presents an across-the-board briefing of the field, which will be suitable for use as a major reference, as well as a knowledge sharing tool. Designed for both experts and newcomers alike, the book provides a comprehensive overview of the most recent advances in the field on the application and use of advanced ceramic materials in photocatalytic membrane processes. - Provides a comprehensive review of advanced ceramic materials used in photocatalytic membranes - Covers synthesis of ceramic membranes via both physical and chemical approaches - Discusses materials characterization, properties, and performance analysis - Covers modeling, simulation, and the theory of mass transfer mechanisms - Features applications in water and wastewater treatment - Discusses system scale up, economic viability, and cost analysis
