Abstract
The concentration polarization model has been applied to analyze the p ermeate flux of hollow-fiber membrane ultrafiltration. Comparison of t heoretical prediction with experimental data has been made under vario us transmembrane pressures, feed velocities, and solution concentratio ns. Both theoretical prediction and experimental results show that ave rage permeate flux increases as transmembrane pressure or feed velocit y increases, but decreases when solution concentration increases.
