Coupling electrochemical process with membrane technology not only enables a higher removal or decomposition of pollutants in waters, but also ensures a more effective control of membrane fouling as well as a more highly selective separation process. The recent development of electrochemical membrane technology has also extended its applications in desalination, energy harvest, and resource recovery from seawater and wastewaters. Electrochemical Membrane Technology for Water and Wastewater Treatment consolidates state-of-the-art research developments in electrochemical membrane technology in water reclamation and sustainability in terms of fundamental theories, membrane and electrode materials, reactor designs, fouling control mechanisms and applications.
Electrochemical Membrane Technology for Water and Wastewater Treatment
