This volume highlights the latest advances, innovations, and applications related to membrane technologies for water and wastewater treatment as presented by leading researchers at the 7th IWA Regional Membrane Technology Conference (IWA-RMTC), held in Palermo, Italy on June 18-21, 2024. The event took place together with the International Conference on Wider-Uptake of Water Resource Recovery from Wastewater Treatment (ICWRR). The contributions cover a wide range of topics such as membrane materials and configurations, hybrid membrane processes, drinking water treatment, domestic/industrial wastewater treatment, water reuse, resource recovery from wastewater, energy recovery from water and wastewater, desalination, membrane fouling mechanisms and control. The contributions were selected by means of a rigorous peer-review process and highlight many exciting ideas that will spur novel research directions and foster multidisciplinary collaboration among different water specialists.

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
This eBook uses Watermark-DRM, a „soft” copy protection. This means that there are no technical restrictions to prevent illegal distribution. However, there is a personalised watermark embedded in the eBook that can be used to identify the purchaser of the eBook in the event of misuse and to provide evidence for legal purposes.
