- to develop a new class of functional low fouling membranes for membrane bioreactor technology with high water flux and high rejection of organic matter with low molecular weight
- to conduct computer modelling of the transport processes to enhance the membrane materials optimization process
- to conduct performance tests of the membrane materials on laboratory scale with model water in order to characterize the membranes
- to demonstrate the viability of the membrane materials by producing prototype devices to meet specific end-user requirements
- to demonstrate the possible application for industrial wastewater treatment and reuse through collaboration with industry in MENA countries
