Fod Processing Engineering

Liquid X flows on one side of a membrane and liquid Y flows on the other side. Meanwhile solute Z transfers from X, through the membrane, into Y. The following data pertain: (a) Calculate the convective resistance on the X side (in s/m3 ): (b) Calculate the diffusive resistance through the membrane (in 5/m3 ): (c) Calculate the convective resistance on the Y side (in 5/m3 ): (d) What is the overall transfer rate of Z from X to Y (in kg/s) ? (e) Which mechanism presents the limiting resistance
