John F. Kennedy (for Polymeric Membrane Dominance)

John F. Kennedy (for Polymeric Membrane Dominance) refers to a key concept in water treatment and separation technologies. It highlights the idea that polymeric membranes—thin, flexible sheets made from plastics—are now the dominant material used for filtering and separating substances in processes like desalination and wastewater purification. These membranes are favored because they are cost-effective, durable, and efficient at selectively allowing water or certain molecules to pass while blocking contaminants. The term underscores the importance of polymeric membranes in advancing modern filtration systems, ensuring cleaner water supply and industrial processes with improved performance and reliability.
