TL;DR: In this paper, the authors determined the mass transfer coefficient for external and internal transport using experimentally established time-concentration curves in batch tests for the adsorption of organic impurities from water on activated carbon particles.

TL;DR: In this article, a simple technique for determining the mass transfer coefficient and the concentration polarization level in a reverse osmosis (RO) system is described. And the proposed technique was verified by experiments performed in a tubular RO system under turbulent flow conditions.

TL;DR: In this paper, a simplified diffusional model was used to estimate the coefficients for ternary solutions of both solutes, for the range of concentration and temperature studied, by means of a ''parallel flow'' model.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the diffusion in microbial films produced by Pseudomonas fluorescens under turbulent flow conditions using an inert substance (LiCl) Mass transfer coefficients in the biofilm were measured during formation of the biological deposits and for biofilms developed under different fluid velocities.
Abstract: Diffusion in microbial films produced by Pseudomonas fluorescens under turbulent flow conditions was studied using an inert substance (LiCl) Mass transfer coefficients in the biofilm were measured during formation of the biological deposits and for biofilms developed under different fluid velocities Mass transfer rates in the biofilm decreased with time, and more quickly in the case of biofilms subjected to high shear stresses The latter show lower final thicknesses and lower internal diffusivities The so‐called “active layer”;, if it exists, does not seem to have a fixed thickness (as proposed by some authors), since it will depend on the environmental conditions, particularly on fluid velocities

TL;DR: In this article, a three-stage model of the fixed-bed adsorption on activated carbon has been used in the removal of p-nitrophenol from water and the range of low concentrations of a break-through curve has been analyzed.
