TL;DR: This chapter considers how to formulate and describe elementary diffusion and mass transfer problems in fluid systems and develops a differential equation, and a solution containing arbitrary constants evolves.
Abstract: In Chapters 2 and 7, we demonstrated the development of differential equations pertinent to momentum and energy transport in simple fluid systems. In this chapter, we consider how to formulate and describe elementary diffusion and mass transfer problems in fluid systems. We use practically the same procedure in this situation as we did previously; we develop a differential equation, and a solution containing arbitrary constants evolves. These constants are evaluated by applying boundary conditions that specify the concentration or the mass flux at the bounding surfaces. Again, we demonstrate the principles involved by considering specific examples, but first let us reconsider the general situation.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors designed an innovative external hollow fiber membrane (HFM) diffuser to remove the bottleneck of gas-liquid mass transfer of carbon monoxide, the major component of syngas, by implementing three operational factors, membrane surface area per working volume (A/ v ), water velocity (V L ), and specific gas flow rate (V g ).
