There is limited information available to describe how the recycle ratios of the retentate and permeate streams can be used to counteract the effects of fluctuations in feed flowrate and composition on the flowrate and composition of the retentate stream from a whey ultrafiltration (UF) process. Bas

The sequestration of CO2 as a greenhouse mitigation option is becoming an increasingly important priority for industry. Theoretically membrane based CO2 removal systems have the potential to provide a cost effective, low maintenance approach for removing CO2 from gas streams. This study examines the

An existing model for the simulation of solvent flux, transmembrane pressure and velocity in spiral-wound modules has been combined with results on the critical flux of spacer filled channels to simulate the colloidal fouling of an RO spiral-wound module leaf. A number of situations were examined wh

While models of membrane systems with varying degrees of complexity have been developed since the early 1960s, reports of the use of computational fluid dynamics to provide in-depth insights into the separation phenomenon have only recently appeared in the literature. This paper describes the valida
