Membrane Process Design Using Residue Curve Maps [With

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Peters, Mark / Glasser, David / Hildebrandt, Diane, PUBLISHER: John Wiley & Sons, "Design and Synthesis of Membrane Separation Processes" provides a novel method of design and synthesis for membrane separation. While the main focus of the book is given to gas separation and pervaporation membranes, the theory has been developed in such a way that it is "general" and valid for any type of membrane.     The method, which uses a graphical technique, allows one to calculate and visualize the change in composition of the retentate (non-permeate) phase. This graphical approach is based on Membrane Residue Curve Maps. One of the strengths of this approach is that it is exactly analogous to the method of Residue Curve Maps that has proved so successful in distillation system synthesis and design.
