Journal ArticleDOI

Critical and sustainable fluxes: Theory, experiments and applications

TL;DR: The concept of critical flux has been used in a number of different ways often without explicit redefinition as mentioned in this paper, and it has been clarified both theoretically and from an experimental viewpoint, and a link with the concept of sustainable flux and an approach given for the determination of the apparent sustainable flux.
Journal ArticleDOI

Model for colloidal fouling of membranes

TL;DR: In this paper, a mass transfer equation was proposed to predict the existence of a critical flux for ultrafiltration, reverse osmosis or microfiltration of large size colloids.
Journal ArticleDOI

A unifying model for concentration polarization, gel-layer formation and particle deposition in cross-flow membrane filtration of colloidal suspensions

TL;DR: In this paper, a model was proposed to describe cross-flow filtration of colloidal particles and molecules, where surface and hydrodynamic interactions were used to predict the variation of the osmotic pressure and diffusion coefficient with the volume fraction of the suspension.
Journal ArticleDOI

On an experimental method to measure critical flux in ultrafiltration

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an improvement of previous techniques to determine critical flux in ultrafiltration, which allows having accurate values of the critical flux and the rate of irreversibility of the created deposit on the membrane.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of surface interaction on transfer during colloid ultrafiltration

TL;DR: In this article, a modified Kozeny-Carman equation is used to model the surface repulsive interaction between particles with the salt concentration, and a reduction in porosity due to a decrease in repulsive interactions and a particle size increase due to coagulation are involved.
