K.GhosalThe main objective of this work is to synthesize asymmetric polysulfone membranes with required morphological as well as performance properties so th at they can be successfully employed for the removal of micron and submicron sized oil droplets from oily wastewater, generated mainly from the post treatment unit of petroleum refinery sites. the entire effort carried out in this research work can be divided into two main parts: : : Synthesis and characterization of polysulfone membranes. : : Study of applicability of the prepared membranes for the treatment of oily wastewater. ...enCHEMICAL ENGINEERINGThesis
