A universal transportation model for reverse osmosis systems
Computers & Chemical Engineering, 2021 Abstract This paper presents a new transport model for reverse osmosis (RO) systems, which combines irreversible thermodynamics, together with solution-diffusion theory. The simplifications adopted by the classical theory for solution-diffusion mechanisms have been found to be quite lacking when it comes to predicting the separation of multicomponent
