Advances in Membrane Technologies
The global agricultural sector consumes a large amount of fresh water for irrigation.
Less than half of agricultural wastewater is properly treated before discharging to
environment or recycling. Treatment of agricultural wastewater for reuse in irrigation
can alleviate burden on water resources as well as protect the environment from detrimental effects caused by various organics, pesticides, and soluble ions in the wastewater
stream. This work reviews several current membrane technologies that are applied at
removing the pollutants in agricultural wastewater. Subsequently, several strategies to
further improve membranes’ performance are highlighted
