      This project embarks on a microwave enhanced membrane filtration process that uses microwave (MW) irradiated and catalyst coated ceramic membranes to achieve efficient removal of pollutants and pathogens, and significant mitigation of fouling. Under microwave irradiation, the filtration process may involve the production of nanobubbles and hydroxyl radicals on membrane surface.
