Membrane Technology for Water Purification, 1st Edition, delivers systematic instruction on fluid separation systems used in modern water treatment. Published by Elsevier, this book establishes an organized technical structure divided into three main parts focusing on fundamentals, processes and techniques, and real-life applications. The text provides methods for evaluating and implementing liquid separation technologies across diverse processing environments.

The content explores deployment across varied operational environments, examining specialized membrane uses in municipal, industrial, agricultural, medical, and pharmacological wastewater streams. The volume further addresses large-scale water treatment challenges through detailed coverage of seawater desalination, drinking water purification, and resource recovery from liquid waste streams.

To support technical evaluation and system selection, the work integrates rigorous analytical methodologies for assessing operational viability. The text incorporates life-cycle analysis, system energy requirements, and cost-benefit frameworks to assist in comparing different separation options.
