Development of tuneable polyamine top layer for nanofiltration with high stability in bleach and at extreme pHs KU Leuven
State-of-the-art membranes for nanofiltration are thin film composite membranes, comprising of a thin top layer on top of a porous support. Many separation processes in organic chemistry involve extreme conditions, e.g. aggressive solvents, solvent-water mixtures or extreme pH, e.g. in acid mine drainage or in Cleaningin-Place cycles. However, the most commonly used thin film composite membranes are polyamides, typically prepared by reaction of ...
