An approach to theoretical prediction of permeate flux decline in ultrafiltration

Desalination and Water Treatment, 2009
Permeate flux decline was predicted by means of Song and Elimelech's [1] model. Theoretical results were compared with those obtained in ultrafiltration experiments where TMP and crossflow velocity were varied. Polyethylene glycol (PEG) of 35000 Da was used in the feed solution in a concentration of 10 g/L.
