Abstract

In this paper, the basic principle of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) in membrane separation process were introduced, and the application of CFD mechanism of membrane pollution, membrane module design in pressure-driven membrane processes, as well as other membrane process, such as pervaporation, membrane distillation were presented. The prospect of application of CFD in membrane process was discussed.
