Abstract:Membrane-assisted crystallization is a new unit operation for separation and/or promotion of pure crystals formation, where microporous hydrophobic membranes are used not as selective barriers but to pr omote water vapor transfer between phases inducing supersaturation in solution. Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) is one of the most utilized polymers due to its excellent combination of properties and processability and has been used in a wide plethora of applications in membrane technology including membrane cry… Show more
