Abstract
An approach to estimate the parameters needed to describe the performance o f a column packed with BioSep(TM) beads is presented. These parameters, whi ch characterize the transport of materials through the column, have been es timated from experimental residence time distribution (RTD) data using both porous and non-porous beads. A laboratory-scale column was used to obtain the experimental data using several ionic species.
