Funded Activity Summary

Developing high-flux ceramic membranes via in situ synthesis of metal oxide nanofibres for separations of biological substances. This project can deliver advanced technology for fabricating ceramic membranes and biological separation, which has considerable commercial prospects in the chemical, pharmaceutical, dairy, food and water industries. The new ceramic membrane and nanofibres are highly-valued end products of metal oxides, which are manufactured commercially on large scale in Australia. The project could bring direct benefits to the existing industries, by fostering their growth into more value-added processes, and exporting highly-valued products abroad. Additionally, efficient ceramic membranes could offer solutions to the large-scale purification of biological substances and to the problems for providing clean drinking water.
