Samenvatting The book contains a description of the presence of micropollutants (medicines, hormones, pesticides) in surface water and shows that conventional water treatment poorly removes micropollutants. Nanofiltration and reverse osmosis are more appropriate technologies; however removals can vary depending on the properties of compounds and types of membranes. Thus, quantification of removals is studied by means of multivariate data analysis techniques and more understanding of the separation of micropollutants by membranes is achieved. Water reuse practices will increase due to overpopulation of cities, in that sense water membrane treatment will play an important role for the removal of micropollutants, therefore is important to understand characteristics, advantages and disadvantages of NF and RO, this book helps to achieve that understanding.
