Membrane filters can be applied for a variety of industrial liquid and gas separations applications such as waterdesalination, water/oil separation during oil drilling and industrial waste water treatment. A major operationalissue with filter membranes is their tendency to foul with use over time, which results in lowering throughput,increasing energy consumption and the need for costly maintenance. The aim of this project is to develop a lowcost self-cleaning coating technology based on functionalised graphene, which once applied to industrialmembranes makes them resistant to fouling. The technology has already been demonstrated successfully inlab-scale tests. Led by G2O Water Limited, this project will translate the lab-scale work into a working robust,reliable manufacturing process which can be scaled-up to enhance the performance of existing filtermembranes. The coating will be formulated and validated by the consortium for deployment in a number ofdifferent applications, in order to ensure the resulting smart product can be taken to market and be readilyapplied to improve the performance of a broad range of industrial processes.Finance Summary Table – How to complete this section

膜过滤器可用于各种工业液体和气体分离应用，如水脱盐，石油钻井期间的水/油分离和工业废水处理。过滤膜的一个主要操作问题是随着使用时间的推移，它们倾向于结垢，这会导致吞吐量降低，能耗增加，并且需要昂贵的维护。该项目的目的是开发一种基于功能化石墨烯的低成本自清洁涂层技术，该技术一旦应用于工业膜，就可以使其抗污染。这项技术已经在实验室规模的测试中得到了成功的证明。该项目由G2 O Water Limited牵头，将实验室规模的工作转化为一个强大、可靠的生产工艺，可以扩大规模，以提高现有滤膜的性能。该涂料将由该联盟进行配方和验证，以部署在许多不同的应用中，以确保最终的智能产品可以推向市场，并随时应用于提高广泛的工业过程的性能。财务汇总表-如何填写本部分
