Membranes (ISSN 2077-0375) is an international, peer-reviewed, open access journal. The journal covers broad science-and technology-related aspects of both biological and non-biological membranes. Membranes provides a forum for publishing papers that advance our understanding of membrane structure, performance, processes, and applications that cover membrane chemistry, physics, engineering, and biology. The journal publishes original reviews, research articles, and short communications. Authors are encouraged to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. Thus, there is no restriction on paper length. Full experimental, theoretical, and computational details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. Subject Areas： • membranes in industrial sciences o membrane materials o membrane preparation and characterization o membrane processes o modeling and simulation o operation and modules design o membrane applications • membranes in life sciences
