Abstract
We consider phase separation in multicomponent systems in the limit as the free volume goes to zero. Excluded volume effects are taken into account via a pressure field which implicitly relates currents and for ces. The pressure, obtainable from a divergence condition, may give ri se to circulating currents: A simple description of the dynamics of ph ase separation al late times follows.
