Membranes: Improving batch membrane filtration

Batch filtration offers a vital technique within the selection of membrane filtration processes available. Applications can be found in the laboratory, but also in industrial practice where small quantities of liquid concentrates are required, for example in the life sciences. Maciej Szwast, Teresa Suchecka and Wojciech Piątkiewicz of Warsaw University describe a new computational model to help improve batch filtration design.
