Since 1980, ceramic membranes have attracted the attention for separation of mixtures of liquids orgases primarily due their chemical and thermal stability under harsh application conditions. Robust ceramic membranes have better antifouling properties with an ease of cleaning the impurities deposited on the membrane surface during their prolong use. However, high costs of these membranes have prevented their large scale industrial applications. Thus there is a growing demand for new generation of ceramic membranes based on low-cost raw materials and processes. In view of this, a book proposal on 'Low cost ceramic membranes: Materials and fabrication process' was submitted and it was approved by Springer recently.Low cost ceramic membranes is a relatively newer area of interest which has emerged to address the requirements for processing low value process streams like wastewater generated from various sources including domestic, municipal and industrial effluents. Efficient and economic technique for wastewater treatment is a challenging issuedue to their varied nature and specific characteristics depending on their sources of generation.Presence of the micropollutantsmake the situation more complex requiring selection of suitable membrane and optimizing the treatment processconditions particularly for recovery and reuse of the treated water or removal of the pollutants prior to the dischargein the environment following relevant specifications. In this book, an attempt has been made to review the current status of developing tailor made low cost membranes and membrane based separation processes for applications in wastewater treatment. It will also present an overview of industry specific case studies upholding the waste-to-resource strategy for utilization of low-cost ceramic membranes in industrialwastewatertreatment.
