The versatility of the electrospinning techniqne, as applied to filtration, are seen in the publications of Chu et al. (2009,2006,2012). In these articles, the researchers produced high-flux, potentially micro-, ultra-, and nanofiltration polymeric membranes, respectively, from a remarkably similar electrospinning setnp by simply altering the concentration and chamber humidity of the polymer solution. These simple changes yielded membranes with pore sizes ranging from 5 nm to 100 pm.
