The crossflow microfiltration of concentrated titania dispersions

This work is the subject of an EPSRC-Tioxide Industrial CASE Award, the principal area of study being factors affecting the achievable steady state permeate flux during the crossflow microfiltration of concentrated titania dispersions. The performance of this continuous thickening process is of particular interest to Tioxide as a potential alternative to current batch filtration processes, which delay the manufacturing process.
