Abstract
Transport phenomena in various membrane separation processes, such as dialysis, reverse osmosis, ultrafiltration, microfiltration, pervaporation, and vapor permeation, were reviewed. Transport equations that are necessary to analyze experimental data and to obtain transport coefficients are explained. Some transport mechanisms were discussed. Also, the relation between reverse osmosis, pervaporation and vapor permeation was explained. Finally, recent topics about new membranes were introduced.
