What Does SLM Stand For?
SLM stands for Supported Liquid Membranes
Supported Liquid Membranes (SLM) are advanced separation systems that utilize a liquid phase, typically a carrier-solvent solution, supported by a porous solid substrate. This technology enables selective transport of specific solutes while effectively blocking undesired components. SLM is widely applied in various fields including water treatment, metal recovery, and gas separation, offering advantages such as high efficiency, operational versatility, and the ability to operate under mild conditions. The integration of SLM in industrial processes provides a sustainable and cost-effective approach to separation challenges.
