60 Years of the Loeb-Sourirajan Membrane: Principles, New Materials, Modelling, Characterization and Applications bring forth theoretical advances, novel characterization techniques, materials development, advanced treatment processes, and emerging applications of membrane-based technologies. The trigger for writing this book is the 2020, 60th anniversary of the first asymmetric polymeric membrane invented by Dr. Sidney Loeb and Dr. Srinivasa Sourirajan (University of California, Los Angeles, USA) on the breakthrough discovery of the semipermeable membrane for seawater desalination. The book places emphasis on the advances of organic and inorganic membranes in different fields, covering not only the primary application of membranes for water and wastewater treatment but also other applications dealing with energy conversion and storage, organic solvent purification, gas separation, and biomedical processes. - Provides a comprehensive overview on membrane technologies from the fundamental knowledge of fabrication principle and separation mechanisms to a wide range of applications, including new/emerging processes - Covers the use of new/advanced materials (both organic and inorganic), novel membrane fabrication techniques, and cutting-edge characterization methods for the development of advanced membranes - Includes advances in computational modeling and simulation of membrane processes
