Cross-flow membrane separation... part of the overall filtration universe, differs dramatically from traditional filtration methods... it is a tangential technique in which the infeed flows continuously over the membrane... there are always two liquid streams leaving the system : the permeate, or the portion of the infeed that passes through the membrane; and the retentate(or concentrate), or the portion that does not pass through the membrane. 1, record 1, English, - cross%2Dflow%20membrane%20separation
