Theoretical Application of Irreversible (Nonequilibrium) Thermodynamic Principles to Enhance Solute Fluxes across Nanofabricated Hemodialysis Membranes
Figure 2
Effect of electrical potential and membrane thickness on solute flux as calculated from − − + . Creatinine molecular volume 110.55 Å3, β 2-microglobulin molecular volume 14,514.81 Å3 and tumor necrosis factor-α molecular volume 31,979.13 Å3. (Fluxes are expressed as mol/s; and in all instances; Note the major impact of mV and thickness on fluxes.)
