Mass Transfers and Physical Data Estimation

Many practical operations, such as environment depollution, blood dialysis or product purification, require matter transfer.

With an emphasis on the aforementioned subjects, this book revisits the founding principles of materials transfer on the basis of Fick’s first law, which constitutes the foundation of diffusional phenomena. Additionally, continuity equations translating the macroscopic balances of systems are established. These balances constitute Fick’s second law, which can be appl...
