membrane separation processes

Membrane separation processes are techniques used to separate substances from a mixture using a thin barrier called a membrane. This membrane allows certain molecules to pass through while blocking others, based on size, charge, or chemical properties. These processes are widely used in water purification, food and beverage production, and pharmaceuticals. For example, reverse osmosis uses a membrane to remove impurities from water, making it safe to drink. Overall, membrane separation is an efficient and often eco-friendly way to separate and purify various materials in many industries.
