The main focus of research on micellar-enhanced ultrafiltration has been: (1) Systematic investigation of the solubilization of organic compounds having a wide variety of structures and utilization of the results to predict the efficiency of micellar-enhanced ultrafiltration (MEUF) in removing organics from water. (2) Studies of the removal of multivalent inorganic ions from water using MEUF. The emphasis of this work has been on transition metals. Two minor topics of study were: (1) Considerations of the advantages of using surfactant mixtures in MEUF instead of single-surfactant components. (2) Investigation of a new method of recovering surfactant from retentate streams from an MEUF separation, for recycle to the process. A list of publications and presentations, in the form of abstracts, which resulted from this project, are appended.
