Description
Design and Synthesis of Membrane Separation Processesprovides a novel method of design and synthesis for membraneseparation. While the main focus of the book is given to gasseparation and pervaporation membranes, the theory has beendeveloped in such a way that it is general and valid for anytype of membrane.
The method, which uses a graphical technique, allows one tocalculate and visualize the change in composition of the retentate(non-permeate) phase. This graphical approach is based on MembraneResidue Curve Maps. One of the strengths of this approach is thatit is exactly analogous to the method of Residue Curve Maps thathas proved so successful in distillation system synthesis anddesign.
