With a detailed analysis of the mass transport through membrane layers and its effect on different separation processes, this book provides a comprehensivelook at the theoretical and practical aspects of membrane transport properties and functions. Basic equations for every membrane are provided to predict the mass transfer rate, the concentration distribution, the convective velocity,the separation efficiency, and the effect of chemical or biochemical reactiontaking into account the heterogeneity of the membrane layer to help better understand the mechanisms of the separation processes. The reader will be able to describe membrane separation processes and the membrane reactors as well as choose the most suitable membrane structure for separation and for membrane reactor. Containing detailed discussion of the latest results in transport processes and separation processes, this book is essential for chemistry students and practitioners of chemical engineering and process engineering. Detailed survey of the theoretical and practical aspects of every membrane process with specific equationsPractical examples discussed in detail with clear steps Will assist in planning and preparation of more efficient membrane structure separation
