The majority of my membrane research focused on industrial or DOE related wastes. Two particularly interesting projects were the development of a full-scale membrane treatment system for a West Virginia aluminum manufacturer and the investigation of a rotary membrane system for DOE wasters and for wastes high in oil content.
