TABLE OF CONTENTS Representative data on membrane permeability and selectivity using selected membranes for various components in gases, liquids, and solutions (or suspensions) are presented in Appendix 1. The spreadsheet layout used illustrates and summarizes the diversity of membrane information. This information, mostly of a random nature, is adapted from the appropriate tabulations in the more readily available literature, and the corresponding references are cited.
Spreadsheet-type calculations may be conveniently used for the presentations and derivations of Chapters 2 through 8; for instance, Lotus 1-2-3, Excel, or whatever. For the purposes here, Excel is utilized. This is contained in Appendices 1 through 8, corresponding to Chapters 1 through 8.
The actual spreadsheet columns are sequenced in alphanumeric, with each appearing as a row designator in the following outlines.
The actual spreadsheet rows correspond to the components involved; that is, each row denotes a particular component. To permit space for the column headings, the identification of the components start at, say, row number 7 on the spreadsheets, for the first (and usually more permeable) component, say, component 1, with the increased numbering continuing downward on the spreadsheets for however many components are to be involved.
The actual spreadsheet calculated results are appended to the corresponding...
