====Membrane materials==== The materials which constitute the membranes used in microfiltration systems may be either organic or inorganic depending upon the contaminants that are desired to be removed, or the type of application. * Organic membranes are made using a diverse range of polymers including [[cellulose acetate]] (CA), [[polysulfone]], [[polyvinylidene fluoride]], [[polyethersulfone]] and [[polyamide]]. These are most commonly used due to their flexibility, and chemical properties.<ref name="Perry, RH 2007"/> * Inorganic membranes are usually composed of [[sintered]] metal or porous [[alumina]]. They are able to be designed in various shapes, with a range of average pore sizes and permeability.<ref name="Perry, RH 2007"/>
