1Membrane (selective barrier) — Schematic of size based membrane exclusion A membrane is a layer of material which serves as a selective barrier between two phases and remains impermeable to specific particles, molecules, or substances when exposed to the action of a driving… …
2Membrane — A Membrane may refer to: In biology Biological membrane Cell membrane, a biological type of Membrane (selective barrier) Inner membrane Outer membrane (disambiguation) The two fetal membranes amnion chorion Basement membrane Mucous membrane… …
3Membrane bioreactor — (MBR) is the combination of a membrane process like microfiltration or ultrafiltration with a suspended growth bioreactor, and is now widely used for municipal and industrial wastewater treatment with plant sizes up to 80,000 population… …
4Membrane curvature — is the geometrical measure or characterization of the curvature of membranes. The membranes can be naturally occurring or man made (synthetic). An example of naturally occurring membrane is the lipid bilayer of cells, also known as cellular… …
5Membrane emulsification — (ME) is a relatively novel technique for producing all types of single and multiple emulsions (o/w, w/o, w/w, w/o/w, o/w/o, m/w, s/o/w), e.g. for DDS (drug delivery system), solid micro carriers for encapsulation of drug or nutrient, solder… …
6Ceramic membrane — Ceramic membranes are a type of artificial membranes made from inorganic metarials (such as alumina, titania, zirconia oxides or some glassy materials). They are used in membrane operations. By contrast with polymeric membranes they can used in… …
7Artificial membrane — An artificial membrane, also called a synthetic membrane, is a membrane prepared for separation tasks in laboratory and industry. Its active part, which permits selective transport of material, usually consists of polymers or ceramics, seldom… …
8analysis — /euh nal euh sis/, n., pl. analyses / seez /. 1. the separating of any material or abstract entity into its constituent elements (opposed to synthesis). 2. this process as a method of studying the nature of something or of determining its… …
9Microbial enhanced oil recovery — (MEOR) is a biological based technology consisting in manipulating function or structure, or both, of microbial environments existing in oil reservoirs. The ultimate aim of MEOR is to improve the recovery of oil entrapped in porous media while… …
10Composite material — A cloth of woven carbon fiber filaments, a common element in composite materials Composite materials, often shortened to composites or called composition materials, are engineered or naturally occurring materials made from two or more constituent …
