Membrane Surface Engineering for Biochemical Applications
<p>Synthetic membranes have been frequently used for many fields, such as, the food and beverage, biopharmaceutical, and biofuel industries. In the beer industry, microfiltration frequently suffers from fouling due to the interaction between different species. It is shown that polyphenols can form …

Internal surface coating and photochemical modification of polypropylene microfiltration membrane
<p>Membrane surface modification is of interest to most membrane scientists because the surface properties of most commercial membranes are often nonoptimal for particular applications. This thesis focuses on the further development of a thin film coating on the internal surface of polypropylene …

Addressing the Downstream Processing Challenges Within Manufacturing of Oncolytic Rhabdoviruses
… relies on a combination of chromatography and membrane-based processes to remove process-related (e.g. host-cell proteins and nucleic acids) and product-related impurities (e.g. aggregated virus particles). This thesis explores various methods that can potentially be used to address the …

Surface Modification of PVDF Membranes for Treating Produced Waters by Direct Contact Membrane Distillation
<p>Direct contact membrane distillation is a promising unit operation for treating hydraulic fracturing flow back and produced water. However, while a hydrophobic membrane is essential to prevent the passage of water from the feed to the permeate side, fouling by dissolved organic species can …
