A definitive, practice-ready guide that unifies advanced membranes, nanomaterials, and smart control to solve real environmental problems at scale Membrane Technology for Environmental Remediation: From Principles to Applied Solutions distills state-of-the-art membrane science into actionable engineering and maps the path from materials and mechanisms to field deployment. The text explores the core challenges of water scarcity, persistent pollution, and sustainable resource recovery, showing how to design, optimize, and operate systems that deliver measurable remediation outcomes. Covering synthesis and characterization, transport and selectivity, and the engineering of multi-functional membranes, the book integrates catalytic, stimuli-responsive, and conductive architectures with AI-enabled operational intelligence. It connects fundamentals to applications – RO/UF/NF, bioreactors, anti-fouling strategies, and circular-economy recovery – culminating in design playbooks for robust, scalable treatment. Readers will find a rigorous survey of the landscape and a clear line of sight to implementation, as well as up-to-date discussions of: End-to-end system design: From material selection and fabrication to module integration, process control, and performance validation across drinking water, industrial effluents, and resource recoveryFunction-integrated membranes: Catalytic layers for in-situ degradation, stimuli-responsive surfaces for adaptive selectivity, and conductive matrices leveraging electrochemical oxidation/reduction for fouling controlOptimization under constraints: Practical guidance to balance permeability, selectivity, stability, and lifecycle cost while addressing global water scarcity and compliance targetsAI and smart operations: Data-driven monitoring, fouling prediction, and adaptive control strategies that enhance uptime, energy efficiency, and overall treatment reliabilityPerfect for environmental scientists, chemical and environmental engineers, nanotechnology specialists, and water treatment professionals, Membrane Technology for Environmental Remediation will also benefit policymakers and advanced students seeking a rigorous, application-oriented reference.
