Abstract

A new cascade configuration for the continuous membrane fractionation of solutes having similar permeabilities is proposed. In this scheme, solute selectivity is amplified by combining a concentrator and several mass exchangers (e.g., a reverse osmosis unit and hollow fiber dialyzers) to achieve a desired degree of separation. Separation efficiency of the new cascade is compared with that of a conventional counter‐current cascade.
