Resuspension of Abiotic Particles from Ceramic Membranes
Adhesion forces are an important factor when dealing with particle resuspension. A direct measurement of these forces is not possible in industrial membrane filtration processes. However, more knowledge about the acting adhesion forces would be very helpful to use membrane filtration in an economically more efficient way. This article introduces basic experiments that should lead to an indirect, time-resolved measurement of adhesion forces acting during the process of membrane surface regeneration. The aim is to optimize the existing regeneration process and to find new solutions for membrane regeneration.
