The aim of this work is to characterize more accurately, through experimental or theoretical approaches, the hydrodynamics of three particular systems usually used for flux enhancement: shear-enhanced filtration with a vibrating membrane module, gas/liquid two-phase flows and Dean vortices. The corr

A new way to prepare nanofiltration membranes, consisting of in-line external modification of the skin of a polysulfone ultrafiltration hollow fibre skin, is described. The paper presents a continuous process (dip-coating followed by photografting) and the influence of the operating conditions on th
