Date	Class number	Topic	Slides for class	Video and audio files		References and Notes
08 October	06C	Membrane overview	Slides	Video	Audio	An important and useful reference that you should read as self-study described how membranes are made (requires a McMaster internet connection).
10 October	06D	Membranes: microfiltration	Slides	Video	Audio
14 October	07A	Membranes: microfiltration and ultrafiltration	Slides	Video	Audio
15 October	07B	Membranes: a guest lecture	Slides (due to copyright restrictions, you need to be on campus to access these)	Video	Audio	The GE Osmonics Membrane Handbook is a great resource that shows how to design and operate a membrane plant.
21 October	08A	Membranes: ultrafiltration theory and examples	Slides	Video	Audio	An excellent introductory article on membranes for engineers (required an on-campus MacSecure or VPN connection to access it). See how spiral wound membranes are made.
22 October	08B	Membranes: more ultrafiltration examples	Slides	Video	Audio	See one way in which pressure energy can be recovered from the retentate stream. This saves on operating costs.
24 October	08C	Membranes: we start the next section on Reverse Osmosis (RO)	Slides			A great overview article on membranes in general, and RO. Good background reading for those that are doing their course project on the membrane topic.
