Membrane research in Portugal is aligned with global concerns and expectations for sustainable social development, thus progressively focusing on the use of natural resources and renewable energy. This review begins by addressing the pioneer work on membrane science and technology in Portugal by the research groups of - (IST), - (FCT NOVA) and - (FEUP) aiming to provide an historical perspective on the topic. Then, an overview of the trends and challenges in membrane processes and materials, mostly in the last five years, involving Portuguese researchers, is presented as a contribution to a more sustainable water-energy-material-food nexus.
葡萄牙的膜研究与全球对可持续社会发展的关注和期望相一致,因此逐渐侧重于自然资源和可再生能源的利用。本综述首先介绍了葡萄牙 - (IST)、 - (FCT NOVA)和 - (FEUP)研究小组在膜科学与技术方面的开创性工作,旨在提供该主题的历史视角。然后,概述了膜工艺和材料的趋势与挑战,主要是过去五年中涉及葡萄牙研究人员的情况,作为对更可持续的水 - 能源 - 材料 - 食品关系的贡献。
