Analysis of concentration polarization in reverse osmosis and nanofiltration: zero-, one-, and two-dimensional models
P. M. Biesheuvel, S. Porada, B. Blankert +2
Reverse osmosis and nanofiltration are membrane-based methods that remove solutes from solvent, for instance they remove salts from water (desalination). In these methods, an appli…
General validity of the exponential law for the effect of concentration polarization in reverse osmosis in a stirred-cell geometry, including an activity correction for 1:1 salt solutions
P. M. Biesheuvel, S. Porada, I. Ryzhkov +1
Reverse osmosis (RO) is a method to desalinate water with membranes and an applied pressure. Very important in the theory of mass transport in RO is the concentration polarization…
Theory of expansion and compression of polymeric materials
P. M. Biesheuvel, H. Fan, M. Elimelech
We extend classical Flory-Rehner theory for the expansion and compression of porous materials such as cross-linked polymer networks. The theory includes volume exclusion, affinity…
Induced Charge Anisotropy: a Hidden Variable Affecting Ion Transport through Membranes
Hessam Malmir, Razi Epsztein, Menachem Elimelech +1
The ability of semipermeable membranes to selectively impede the transport of undesirable solutes is key to many applications. Yet, obtaining a systematic understanding of how memb…
