Filtrieren & Separieren International Edition
The International Edition of F&S – Filtrieren und Separieren covers a wide range of current topics from different application areas of filtration and separation: You will find the highlights of the years 2023/2024 from all relevant fields of application such as filter development, air and gas purification, solid-liquid separation, particle analysis and membrane technology.
The filter development section reflects today’s demands on filter media development, with nearly all articles dealing with PFAS-free alternatives and the retention of contaminants such as pesticides and volatile organic compounds (VOC). In the Air and Gas Cleaning section, Marcus Weidemann and Eberhard Schmitt from the University of Wuppertal examine the contribution that electrostatics can make to increasing the efficiency of dust separation. And in particle analysis, Franziska Blauth, Kevin Koenen, Erik Köster and Claudia von der Höh investigate classifying filtration for the analysis of living organisms in ships’ ballast water. Finally, we would like to draw your attention to the exclusive series of articles on the RIKovery project at the end of this issue: The project deals with the recycling of industrial salt water using innovative technologies for ion separation and concentration.
We hope you enjoy reading this issue!

Our hot topics
In response to significant salt discharge from the chemical and mineral processing industries, the project RIKovery explores various advanced methods such as Low-Salt-Rejection-Reverse-Osmosis and Flow-Electrode Capacitive Deionization. With a collaborative effort from industry and academia, RIKovery aims to develop sustainable processes for water reuse and salt recovery while ensuring quality control through intelligent monitoring systems.
