ABSTRACT:
The method of the present invention for separating bacteria includes passing a bacteria-containing liquid through a plural-coated-sintered inorganic membrane on a larger pore size inorganic ceramic support. By plural-coated-sintered is meant at least two sintered coatings of substantially similar pore size. The membrane on a ceramic support preferably includes a porous double-coated sintered ceramic oxide membrane on an alpha-alumina support.
