S e m in a r In for m a t ion Programm Content Membrane Distillation Membrane distillation (MD) is an emerging technology which attracted a lot of interest in the last years but did not commercialise on large scale until today. A significant increase of research activities is visible due to rising number of publications and conference shares and a few companies already focus their business on this technology. A number of pilot units are already in field operation. The intention of the seminar is to provide a comprehensive overview on MD from theoretical background to practical applications and to bring together researchers, MD system and component producers and companies who are potential applicants for MD technology. The seminar will provide details on the physics behind MD and show the advantages and limitations of the process. Possibilities for process optimization will be shown as well as the impact of membrane parameters. Practical results from the lab and from the field will be provided and potential applications for industrial use of MD will be discussed.
