Abstract
Various methods and concepts that are currently being used and propose d to control or minimize concentration polarization and fouling in mem brane separation processes are reviewed. A morphological analysis of h ydrodynamic ways to prevent the detrimental influence on fluxes is giv en. The potentials of these different approaches are analyzed and some examples of module designs resulting from the various approaches with special attention to rotary membrane modules are given.
