Data underlying the PhD thesis: "Ceramic membranes for industrial wastewater treatment: Fabrication, membrane fouling and fouling characterization"

This dataset supports the doctoral thesis titled <em>"Ceramic membranes for industrial wastewater treatment: Fabrication, membrane fouling and fouling characterization."</em> It contains experimental data from laboratory-scale filtration tests focused on the development and performance evaluation of ceramic ultrafiltration membranes (SiC and Al₂O₃) for the treatment of complex industrial oily and laundry wastewaters. The study integrates materials engineering and membrane technology, with emphasis on membrane fabrication using low-pressure chemical vapor deposition and the investigation of fouling behavior under various operating conditions. Data were generated from membrane filtration experiments and characterization techniques, including scanning electron microscopy and other in-situ methods. The dataset includes both raw and processed results related to membrane properties, fouling mechanisms, and DLVO/XDLVO model-based fouling predictions.
