Summary Annotation Membrane reactors (MRs) use advanced membrane materials, design and manufacturing to replace conventional industrial separations, processes and conversion technologies across a wide range of applications. By directly coupling a separation step with a reaction, MRs offer high thermodynamic efficiency, increasing throughput potential. This integrated processing offers both lower cost operation and the opportunity for process intensification in such fields as chemical and biochemical engineering, and in energy and environmental technologies. Increasing interest from both the scientific and industrial communities into MRs continues to stimulate research and development in this important field.Owing to the large amount of material available in the specialized literature, this handbook is composed of two volumes. Volume 2 reviews reactor types and industrial applications and is divided into four parts. The first section presents a selection of the types of membrane reactors, along with chapters on the integration of membrane reactors with current industrial processes. The middle sections deal with membrane reactors used in chemical and large-scale hydrogen production from fossil fuels and consider electrochemical devices and transport applications of membrane reactors. Finally, the conclusion reviews membrane reactors in the fields of environmental engineering, biotechnology, and medicine.
