In last two decades, rising global population and industrial revolution significantly enhanced the release of waste water in the environment. Accumulation of waste water adversely affects the soil and water ecosystem and ultimately health of human beings. However various traditional methods physiochemical and biological methods have been employed for the wastewater treatment. In general, conventional wastewater treatment methods are successful in eliminating a large portion of degradable organic compounds and suspended solids found in wastewater. Nevertheless, to achieve more advanced treatment and effectively remove the contaminants, membrane separation technology has been considered as one of the effective approach. This chapter briefly describes the different approaches of membrane separation technologies, processes utilized for the waste water management. © 2024 Elsevier Inc.
