Purification of Natural Water by Ceramic Microfiltration Membranes from Clayey Minerals

The paper has investigated separation properties of home-made tube microfiltration ceramic membranes from clayey minerals when purifying underground and surface natural waters by tangential microfiltration. The paper has high efficiency of purifying such waters of suspended matter (up to 99.9%) of iron compounds (up to 99.8%) and manganese (up to 60%).
