The phase inversion technique was used in this study to prepare polyethersulfone membranes. After optimizing the synthesis factors, like the relative air humidity, the concentration of the polymer and the used solvent, nanoporous membranes were obtained. Characterization of these membranes indicated

The prediction of binary and multicomponent fluxes through a microporous silica membrane from the pure component fluxes through the membrane is not straightforward. Although for small concentration intervals, concentration effects are neglected they must in fact always be taken into account.
