Water is the most valuable resource for all human development. With increasing global population the demand for water increases whereas the sources of clean water are decreasing. recycling and reuse of wastewater has become an imperative which demands the development of new, efficient and environmentally friendly treatment methods.

Current Trends and Future Developments in (Bio-) Membranes: Recent Achievements in Wastewater and Water Treatments provides a comprehensive coverage of the existing wastewater treatment including, but not exclusively, membrane-based methods. The book presents most common used methods compares and evaluates them depending on their particular application. It illustrates many aspects of the various treatment systems used in water and wastewater purification and lists the advantages of membrane-based methods to non-membrane based technologies. This book focuses on introducing, applications, advantages/disadvantages, evaluating of membrane-based technologies and comparing it with other non-membrane based systems. It also analyses the various limitations of each method. Hence, the book is a key reference text for R&D managers in industry interested in the development of water/waste treatment technologies as well as academic researchers and postgraduate students working in the wider area of the strategic treatment, separation and purification processes.

Ghasemzadeh, Kamran
Kamran Ghasemzadeh is an associate professor in the Faculty of Chemical Engineering at the Urmia University of Technology, Iran where he has been a faculty member since 2014. From 2016-2018, also, he was nominated as head of chemical engineering faculty. On the other hand, from August 2018, he is nominated as director of UUT research center in Urmia university of technology. His research interests lie in the area of membrane and membrane reactor processes, ranging from modeling to design to implementation. In recent years, he has focused on study of inorganic membranes (graphene, silica and palladium membranes) performances for gas separation and water treatment from both aspects of experimental and modeling point of views. He has collaborated actively with researchers in several other disciplines of chemical engineering, particularly simulation of chemical processes by commercial Comsol Multiphysics, Fluent and Aspen Hysys software. Moreover, he has succeeded to publish more than seventy ISI and conference papers, two patents, seven books and also more than forty book chapters. Hence, Kamran has served on roughly twenty conference and workshop program committees.
