An urgent task is the development of new resource-saving technologies for deep processing wastes from hydrometallurgical industry purpose their reuse. Membrane make it possible to create closed technological cycles with reuse recovered components in production, which allows solving many environmental problems. At Abinsk Electric Steel Works Ltd. (Russia), during production copper-coated steel w...

Membrane reactors are currently under extensive research and development. Hardly any concept however is realized yet in practice. Frequently, forgotten as membrane reactors are electro-catalyic membrane reactors where electrodes perform chemical conversations and membranes separate the locations of conversion. In this chapter we extensively describe a technology where the membrane itself is cat...

A microbial desalination cell (MDC) is a new approach for desalinating water based on using the electrical current generated by exoelectrogenic bacteria. Previously developed MDCs have used only one or two desalination chambers with substantial internal resistance, and used low salinity catholytes containing a buffered or acid solution. Here we show that substantially improved MDC performance c...

Electrodialysis is an effective method of water desalination. However, the efficiency of the method is limited by the concentration polarization of the ion-exchange membranes. Applying an electric field with special pulse characteristics can diminish the effect of the concentration polarization. A theoretical analysis is carried out for galvanostatic and potentiostatic pulse regimes. The time d...
