Preliminary study on the preparation and characterization of novel organophilic membranes used for organic extraction

In the extractive membrane bioreactor (EMBR), typical silicon rubber membranes composed of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) can be considerably thick, causing a high mass transfer resistance which limits the extraction of organics. The thickness of the PDMS membrane cannot be simply reduced as they are n...
