abstract = {Membrane filtration is a pressure driven process useful for
the separation of macrosolutes, colloids or nanoparticles
from a solvent or smaller solutes. This process is of high
importance for the concentration of protein or microgel
suspensions. In these systems, concentration po- larization
determines the permeate flux (Fig. 1). Concentration
polarization is the build-up of solute at the membrane
surface due to convective-diffusive transport of solute in
the boundary layer. The efficiency of the separation process
is thus strongly dependent on the hydrodynam- ic conditions,
membrane porosity and colloidal interactions.We present a
macroscopic model for cross-flow filtration, where the
suspension is flowing tangentially over the membrane
surface. We study filtration of suspensions of impermeable
hard spheres, and of neutral and charged permeable
particles. The influence of the nature of the particles is
reflected through the transport properties of the
suspension, such as the con- centration-dependent diffusion
coefficient and the viscosity. These two transport
properties are calculated using a variant of mode-coupling
theory where hydrodynamic interactions be- tween the
particles are accounted for [1]. These results are compared
with approximate spher- ical cell model calculations, where
multi-particle interactions are modelled by imposing spe-
cial boundary conditions on the outer cell boundary [2]. We
analyze the efficiency of the fil- tration process by
studying the concentration polarization layer and the
permeate flux at dif- ferent operating conditions (applied
pressure and shear rate).References1. G. Nägele, M. Heinen,
