Download or read book Development of Predictive Tools for Membrane Ageing written by Pierre LeClech and published by IWA Publishing. This book was released on 2014-03-15 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study increases our current understanding on the degradation/ageing mechanisms occurring on porous membranes used in the water and wastewater industries. Accelerated membrane degradation was obtained through both static and consecutive ageing protocols on the pilot-scale, and a range of carefully selected characterisation and analytical techniques was used to characterise the nascent changes faced by the membrane material. The report covers four interrelated sections: Critical assessment of characterisation techniques Static accelerated ageing Consecutive accelerated ageing Consecutive ageing of industrially-aged membranes. This final report summarises the aims, objectives, outcomes and limitations of the individual work packages, along with some recommendations for future work. This book is co-published with Water Research Australia.
