Description:

Pervaporation is a membrane technology using & dense, nonporous polymeric film to separate contaminated water from a vacuum source. The membrane preferentially partitions the volatile organic compounds (VOC) organic phase used In this test This process has proven to be an alternative to conventional technologies because it removes VOCs without requiring any pre or post-treatments and Is cost-effective.
