Description: Das Projekt "Development of intensified water treatment concepts by integrating nano- and membrane technologies (NAMETECH)" wird vom Umweltbundesamt gefördert und von Vlaamse Instelling voor Technologisch Onderzoek durchgeführt. The Nametech project is funded under the 7th European Framework Programme and harnesses benefits of nanotechnology to bring about improvements in membrane filtration for advanced water treatment. The general objective is to strengthen the European membrane market by making nanotechnology available to large scale European membrane manufactures. The projects brings together all required elements to enable the transfer of nanotechnology towards the field of water treatment. The broad engineering and application know-how of the partners has been brought together to realize cost reduction and process intensification strategies. The starting point of the project is development of the criteria for the identification of nanoparticles with relevance for water treatment applications. After identification and selection of appropriate nanoparticles, attachment of particles to membrane surfaces has been investigated. Another approach examined in the project is to prepare membranes from homogeneous casting solution containing nanoparticles. The major challenge is to identify binders/compounds keeping the nanoparticles stabilized in the casting solution and ensuring compatibility between the polymer, solvent and nanoparticles in order not to disturb the membrane forming process and ensure a desired distribution of built-in particles thereby inducing the maximal nanoparticles activity. Subsequently, laboratory module scale filtrations of both synthetic and real feed are envisaged to asses the filtration performance in terms of permeability and fouling propensity, as compared to unmodified membranes.
