Le terme «perméat» est recommandé parce qu'il s’applique à toutes les techniques de séparation par membranes alors qu'«ultrafiltrat» et «pervaporat» ne peuvent s’utiliser qu'en liaison avec les techniques correspondantes. Le terme «filtrat» est moins spécifique et donc déconseillé pour la séparation par membrane. 1, record 2, French, - perm%C3%A9at
