Current Trends and Future Developments on (Bio)-Membranes: Recent Achievements in Chemical Processes in Membrane Reactors introduces and analyzes chemical processes done in membrane reactors. The book highlights their performance and provides an overview of recent achievements in structural development of membrane reactor systems during chemical processes. Starting from chemical processes aspects and fundamentals of membrane reactor systems, via modeling, experimental and design concepts, to practitioners’ perspective and good application examples, the book sheds light and gives a broad but very detailed view through a point-of-view typical of an industrial engineer.

This is a key reference for R&D managers in industry interested in the development of chemical processes by membrane reactor technologies as well as academic researchers and postgraduate students working in the wider area of the strategic chemical, separation, and purification processes.
