Volume osmotic flows of non-homogeneous electrolyte solutions through horizontally mounted membrane.

Results of an experimental study of volume osmotic flows in a single-membrane osmotic-diffusive cell, which contains a horizontal, microporous, symmetrical polymer membrane separating water and binary or ternary electrolyte solutions are presented. In the experimental set-up, water was placed on one side of the membrane. The opposite side of the membrane was exposed to binary or ternary solutions. As binary solutions, aqueous potassium chloride or ammonia solutions were used, whereas potassium chloride in 0.25 mol x l(-1) aqueous ammonia solution or ammonia in 0.1 mol x l(-1) aqueous potassium chloride solution were used as ternary solutions. Two (A and B) configurations of a single-membrane osmotic-diffusive cell in a gravitational field were studied. In configuration A, water was placed in a compartment above the membrane and the solution below the membrane. In configuration B the position of water and solution was reversed. Furthermore, the effect of amplification of volume osmotic flows of electrolyte solutions in the single-membrane osmotic-diffusive electrochemical cell was demonstrated. The thermodynamic models of the flux graviosmotic and amplification effects were developed, and the volume flux graviosmotic effect for configurations A and B of a single-membrane osmotic-diffusive cell was calculated. The results were interpreted within the conventional instability category, increasing the diffusion permeability coefficient value for the system: concentration boundary layer/membrane/concentration boundary layer.

[A pressure gravity-diffusive effect for flat polymeric membrane and ternary non-electrolyte solutions].

In this paper the pressure gravidiffusive model equation in a single-membrane osmotic-diffusive cell is elaborated. In this cell the flat, microporous and symmetric polymeric membrane so-called Nephrophane positioned horizontally separated water and binary (aqueous glucose or aqueous ethanol) or ternary (glucose in 0.2 mol.l-1 aqueous ethanol or ethanol in 0.05 mol.l-1 aqueous glucose) non-electrolyte solutions. The calculations of pressure gravidiffusive effects for the configurations A and B of the single-membrane osmotic-diffusive cell were elaborated. In configuration A solution was placed in compartment below membrane and in configuration B--above membrane. The calculated result are interpreted in terms of the convective instability that increases the diffusive permeability coefficient of complex: concentration boundary layer/membrane/concentration boundary layer.

[Gravitational osmotic pressure effect for a series of flat polymer membranes positioned horizontally].

In this paper the results of study pressure graviosmotic effect for a double-membrane osmotic-diffusive cell, in which series of two (Ml and M(r)), microporous and symmetrical flat polymeric membranes (Nephrophane and Cellulose IMP-1) separate three compartments (l, m, r) containing the heterogeneous and binary (aqueous glucose or ethanol solutions) or ternary (glucose solutions in 0.75 mole.l-1 aqueous ethanol solution or ethanol solutions in 0.1 mole.l-1 aqueous glucose solution) non-ionic solutions. In this system the solution concentrations fulfill the condition Ckl > Ckm > Ckr. The inter-membrane compartment (m) consists of the infinitesimal layer of solution. The volume of compartment m and external compartment (l and r) fulfill the conditions Vm-->0 and Vl = Vr-->infinity respectively. The calculations of pressure graviosmotic effect for configurations A and B of the double-membrane osmotic-diffusive cell were elaborated. In configuration A solution was placed in compartment below membrane M(r) and water above membrane Ml. In configuration B solution was placed in compartment above membrane Ml and water below membrane Ml. These calculated results are interpreted in terms of the convective instability that increases the diffusive permeability coefficients of complexes: concentration boundary layers (membrane Ml or M(r)) concentration boundary layer.

Gravitational effects in the passive osmotic flows across polymeric membrane of electrolytic solutions.

Results of experimental study of volume flux in one-membrane system were presented. This system contains horizontal, microporous and symmetrical flat polymeric membrane (Nephrophan), which separate water and electrolyte solution. As binary solutions, aqueous ammonia solutions, which density is lower than water density, were used. As ternary solutions the ammonia with KC1 (0.1 or 0.2 mole.l-1) in aqueous solution were used. The density of ternary solutions was lower, higher or the same as water density. Two configurations of membrane system (A and B) in gravitational field were studied. In configuration A, water was in compartment over the membrane and the solution was under the membrane. In configuration B the succession was reverse. The thermodynamic model of flux graviosmotic effect was elaborated, and the calculations of this effect were performed for A and B configurations of one membrane system. The experimental results are interpreted in terms of gravitational instability that reduces concentration boundary layer dimensions and increases the diffusion permeability coefficient value of the complex: boundary layer/membrane/boundary layer.

[Gravity-osmotic pressure effect for flat polymeric membranes and three-component non-electrolyte solutions].

In this paper the classification of the gravitational effects in a passive transmembrane transport is presented. Among these effects there are the flux (flux graviosmotic effect, flux gravidiffusive, current gravielectric effect) and force (pressure graviosmotic effect, pressure gravidiffusive effect, voltage gravielectric effect) gravitational effects. The pressure graviosmotic effect model equation in a single-membrane system is elaborated. In this system the flat, microporous and symmetric polymeric membrane (Nephrophan) positioned horizontally separated water and binary (aqueous glucose) or ternary (glucose-0.2 mole/l) aqueous ethanol) non-electrolyte solutions. The calculations of pressure graviosmotic effects for two (A and B) configurations of the single-membrane system were elaborated. In configuration A solution was placed in compartment below membrane and in configuration B--above membrane. These calculated results are interpreted in terms of the convective instability that increases the diffusive permeability coefficient of complex: boundary layer/membrane/boundary layer.
