abstract = {Charge-stabilized suspensions have interesting static
features, reflected in properties such as the suspension
osmotic pressure and ionic microstructure. These properties
are determined by electro-steric interactions between all
ionic species. Due to the large size asymmetry between
colloidal macroions and small microions, the degrees of
freedom of the latter can be integrated out, resulting in an
effective one-component interaction potential describing
microion-dressed colloidal quasi-particles. We present a
comparison, and partial extension, of various methods of
calculating effective colloidal interaction parameters
including effective charges and screening constants as
functions of concentration and ionic strength [1]. We
discuss osmotic suspension pressure calculations for
dispersions in Donnan equilibrium with a salt ion reservoir.
Methods are discussed including cell-models, renormalized
jellium models, and multi-colloid-centered mean-field
models. The pros and cons of the various methods are
assessed by comparison with primitive model based computer
simulations. As an application to a technologically relevant
process, a parameter-free model for cross-flow
ultrafiltration is presented [2]. In this process, a dilute
charge-stabilized dispersion is concentrated and purefied by
continouosly pumping it though an array of cylindrical
membranes having nano-sized pores.References[1] M. Brito, J.
