Description

The advancement of membrane technology as a sustainable and competitive separation process necessitates achieving a significantly higher specificity, rapid transport, and scalability. Our research focuses on the design of polymeric materials for multilayer membranes through the crosslinking and interfacial polymerization of macrocycles and other selected segments, specifically for the separation of small molecules and ions in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries and for the harvesting elements from complex mixtures. For macromolecular separation, we develop mesoporous membranes via the controlled phase separation of polymers and copolymer solutions. The talk will review the latest developments from our group, including advanced methods for characterizing porosity.
