Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The recovery and generation of valuable productions through the separation process have been playing a very important role in industry. With the increasing demand for clean energy and concerns of climate change as well as sustainability, re/innovation of separation technologies are needed. In this Special Issue, research papers of separation science and technologies are solicited, such as separation membranes and other separation process. The research topics may include, but not limited to, the followings:
- Materials and fabrications of separation membranes;
- Separation process modeling and fundamental mechanism understanding;
- Gas separation for O2, H2, CO2, etc.;
- Fuel reforming;
- Oxycombustion;
- Desalination process;
- Recycling and recovering of elements and materials;
- Up-scaling and integration of separation systems;
- Novel separation process;
- Others.
The papers can be research papers and reviews.
