| Our
Water Treatment programs are based upon our membranes and polymeric/hybrid
material core capability. We design new membranes for
ultra- and nano-filtration and reverse osmosis processes.
In
addition to our core competencies in polymeric and hybrid materials
and testing, we have a membrane water treatment lab with a 5-cell
electrodialysis stack, one high pressure RO stirred cell, three
low-pressure stirred cells, and three crossflow membrane cells.
We measure water flux, salt rejection, small molecule rejection,
and fouling of commercial membranes and membranes that we produce
in-house.
Our
research interfaces with the Sandia
Water Initiative as well as with internal LDRD.
