Membrane Technology
A membrane is defined as a selective barrier between two fluid phases. The machine that is exhibited is capable of producing hollow fibre membrane that can be used in microfiltration, ultrafiltration, reverse osmosis, gas separation and pervaporation processes. The driving force for transport across the membrane is the chemical potential gradient and the physical structure of the membrane determines the flux and selectivity. The effectiveness of any membrane process is describes in terms of the flux and selectivity.
