Objectives

The overall objective of the GreenTechMembr project is to develop a new technology for the water treatment through a technological microfiltration process, by formulating and designing of new types of surfaces - polysulfone membranes functionalized with ionic liquids - integrated in a treatment unit, tested, and validated on a laboratory scale, which significantly contributes to the quality and efficiency of the systems addressing to human health and to progress in this field.

Specific objectives:

  • Formulation/designing and obtaining of polysulfone membranes functionalized with ionic liquids (SLM, PIM).
  • Design and construction of the membrane treatment unit (MTU) by integrating of the optimized experimental demonstrator (SLM, PIM).
  • Properties optimization of the polysulfone membranes functionalized with ionic liquids and their application in microfiltration processes.
  • Experimental evaluation of the characteristics, performance in the operation and the applicability of the laboratory technology using the treatment unit with the integrated experimental demonstrator.
  • Validation and demonstration of the membranes functionality in the treatment unit by technological process of microfiltration..
