Membrane Water Processes and Nanobubble Technology

During the last few decades, membrane technology has been introduced in many sectors including the electrodialysis, reverse osmosis, and filtration. Among others, the main user of the existing membrane market is that of water processing. As the requested water production capacity and the requested water quality is always increasing, the challenges for developing new membrane materials, but also new methods, are in the first priority of the membrane engineering community. To this end, the introduction of other, sometimes "alternative," technologies into membrane process could provide beneficial results. One such example is the nanobubble technology, a relevant new developed technology, which has been proven that can be established as one new promising factor in the water membrane technology in the near future.
