Abstract

In recent years, solvent stable nanofiltration (NF) membranes with molecular weight cut-offs (MWCOs) ranging from 200 to 1000 g mol−1 have emerged. This new generation of organic solvent nanofiltration (OSN) membranes has been employed in a wide range of applications at full process and lab scale. These include fine chemical and pharmaceutical synthesis, food and beverage processing and refining. Concomitantly, a growing number of publications concerning the transport of organic solvents is OSN membranes have appeared. However, controversy still exists in relation to whether pore-flow or solution-diffusion models should be employed to describe OSN transport.
