Sommario/riassunto

<P>Bringing together experts from the fields of inorganic, polymeric, and composite membranes, this book discusses how different membranes can be fabricated and tailored for specific applications. The book details the effects of different fabrication conditions on the three types of membranes and how these fabrication conditions can be controlled to optimize membrane construction and the subsequent application of the membrane system.</P>
