Preface

When a fluid mixture (liquid, vapor, gas) is forced to traverse a permeable partition, such as a membrane or septum, its components are likely to move at different speed. The ensuing spread in rate and composition is a barrier separation effect. Unlike equilibrium separations, which depend on the thermodynamic condition of the fluid mixtures alone, barrier separations additionally are subject to specific interactions of the mixture components with the barrier. While the thermodynamics of fluid mixtures is predictable and open to adjustment, barrier interference adds another dimension to the repertoire of separation effects. Exploiting barrier interference is the challenge of membrane separation science and technology. This book is about the principles behind. As membrane processes, barrier separations independently have acquired their peculiar identities and colorful diversity, each fondling its own tradition, each adhering to its own terminology (down to defying SI units), each earning different public attention and support. By way of illustration: Gas leakage through e
