Abstract

In order to treat composite membranes arranged in a parallel or series array of elements, a set of phenomenological equations for the transport of electrolytes through membranes was derived. The phenomenological equations are based on practical, straight and cross coefficients readily tested experimentally. A series of relations was developed for the coupling coefficients which allows a ready transition from one system of coefficients to another.
