permeatflux
Permeatflux is a term used in membrane science to describe the rate at which a permeant crosses a barrier per unit area under a driving force. It is often considered a specialized form of permeate flux, with emphasis on the transport of specific solutes or solvents through a membrane or selective barrier. In practice, permeatflux is expressed in units such as mol m^-2 s^-1 or L m^-2 h^-1, representing the amount of permeant passing through the membrane per unit area per unit time.
Definition and context can vary, but permeatflux generally refers to the net transport of a permeant from
Measurement methods typically involve controlled laboratory setups such as diffusion cells or crossflow filtration rigs. The
Applications of permeatflux concepts appear in water treatment and desalination, food and beverage filtration, pharmaceutical purification,
