Overview
About the project
In the last decades the use of membrane systems for fresh water production has increased strongly to supply the growing water demand due to increasing human population, industrial and agricultural activity, economic growth and urbanization. Fouling represent one of the major drawbacks of membrane systems. In this project, we aim to explore different techniques in order to study the fouling developed in the system and relate with the membrane performance decrease.
The Fouling in Membrane Filtration Systems (Internship) project is offered at King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST)
