The DMC process for radioactive waste treatment

Description

This paper describes AEA Technology's patented Direct Membrane Cleaning (DMC) technology for enhancing the filtration of finely divided solids from aqueous streams. Electrolytically generated, microscopic gas bubbles at the membrane surface remove the superficial fouling layer, enching the permeation rate of the membrane. DMC technology has been demonstrated for ultrafilters and microfilters; several applications are summarized, including radioactive waste treatment and non-nuclear applications
