A tubular UF membrane with a diameter of 1 . 9 c m and a permeability of 2 4 5 I m 2 h atm

A tubular UF membrane with a diameter of 1.9cm and a permeability of 245Im2h atm is used to concentrate the
cheese protein at 45C. The osmotic pressure () can be estimated with the equation:
(atm)=4,3*10-3c-1,6*10-6c2+7,8*10-8c3 donde c(gl); Average protein diffusivity =5*10-7cm2s.
Calculate
ii) The effect of p on the flow of a new membrane if the feed rate is 1.4ms and the protein concentration is 10,20 or
40gI
ii) If the permeability of the membrane is reduced 4 times due to fouling. What is the effect on the flow?
Data: maximum concentration (395gI, rejection is 100%, density and viscosity equal to water
