Basic Equations of Mass Transport Through a Membrane Layer, Second Edition,
has been fully updated to deliver the latest research in the field.
This volume covers the essentials of compound separation, product
removal, concentration, and production in the chemical, biochemical,
pharmaceutical, and food industries. It outlines the various membrane
processes and their applications, offering a detailed mathematical
description of mass transport and defining basic mass transport and
concentration distribution expressions. Additionally, this book
discusses the process parameters and application of the expressions
developed for a variety of industrial applications. Comprehensive
explanations of convective/diffusive mass transport are provided, both
with and without polarization layers, that help predict and process
performance and facilitate improvements to operation conditions and
efficiency.
Basic Equations of Mass Transport Through a Membrane Layer
is an ideal resource for engineers and technologists in the chemical,
biochemical, and pharmaceutical industries, as well as researchers,
professors, and students in these areas at both an undergraduate and
graduate level.
- Cites and analyzes mass transport equations developed for different membrane processes.
- Examines
the effect of biochemical/chemical reactions in the presence of
convective and diffusive flows in plane and cylindrical spaces.
- Defines
the mass transfer rate for first- and zero-order reactions and
analytical approaches are given for other-order reactions in closed
mathematical forms.
- Analyzes the simultaneous convective and diffusive transports with same or different directions.
