Effect of fabrication parameters on physical properties of metakaolin-based ceramic hollow fibre membrane (CHFM)

Ceramic hollow fibre membranes (CHFMs) are known to have superior characteristics including excellent thermal, mechanical, and chemical stability. Major limitations include their high cost and brittleness, traits which have hindered the commercial adoption of this technology. This paper studies the...
