Abstract: | Ionic mass transfer rate of copper ion in the ion exchange membrane electrodialysis at limiting current density has been studied using a planar flow electrodialyzer consisted of a cation exchange membrane and an anion exchange membrane. Their effective area is 4 × 5 cm2. The effects of flow rate, viscosity of electrodialysate solution and thickness of electrodialyzer to the ionic mass transfer rate have been studied. An empirical correlation equation (Nu)exp. = 4.57 × Re0.333 Sc0.307 (de/L)O.33 is obtained. It fitted well with the theoretical performance equation (NU)theor.= 3.70 × (Re · Sc · de/L), which is derived from the Nernst-Planck Equation based on the assumption that mass transfer in the concentration boundary layer in the desalting compartment is controlling. |
