accurate estimations can be made by experiments [199], or by models, e.g. numerical simulations solving the Laplace equation for the electric potential field [6] decoupled from the concentration field. In addition, also profiled membranes can be simulated, provided the IEM can be treated as a homogeneous resistive material with a uniform electric conductivity. However, in order to reduce the computational effort, such simulations can be restricted to a small number of cases in order to verify/calibrate approximate expressions, more suitable for fast-running models. For example, in the case of a woven spacer with a pitch-to-height ratio of 2 the channel resistance was shown to be inversely proportional to the porosity with a good approximation [6]. 5.2.2 Mass balances and transport across membranes Eq. (28) and all the related equations for the calculation of electric variables can be expressed as functions of the x coordinate along the flow direction. Mass balances and transport equations across the membranes allow the variation of concentrations and flow rates along the flow direction to be computed, thus providing all the information needed fully to characterise the system along its entire length [6, 141, 199, 254, 297]. Following an approach similar to the Nernst–Planck one, ions transport within the membrane can be expressed as the sum of an Ohmic conduction flux and a diffusion flux (see Section 4.1). Therefore, the expressions for ions fluxes across the two IEMs of an ED channel can be generalized for monovalent salts as [6, 141, 199, 254]: 𝐽􏰝􏰐􏰑􏰥(𝑥) = [𝑡􏰺􏰝􏰓􏰔 − (1 − 𝑡􏰹􏰫􏰓􏰔)] 𝑖(𝑥) (32) 𝐹 𝐽􏰥􏰒􏰠􏰠(𝑥)= 𝐷􏰝􏰓􏰔[𝐶􏰶􏰝􏰓􏰔(𝑥)−𝐶􏰏􏰝􏰓􏰔(𝑥)]+𝐷􏰫􏰓􏰔[𝐶􏰶􏰫􏰓􏰔(𝑥)−𝐶􏰏􏰫􏰓􏰔(𝑥)] (33) h􏰝􏰓􏰔 h􏰫􏰓􏰔 𝐽􏰨􏰐􏰨(𝑥) = 𝐽􏰝􏰐􏰑􏰥(𝑥) + 𝐽􏰥􏰒􏰠􏰠(𝑥) (34) where 𝑡􏰺􏰝􏰓􏰔 and 𝑡􏰹􏰫􏰓􏰔 are the transport numbers of the counter-ions inside the IEMs, 𝐷􏰫􏰓􏰔 and 𝐷􏰝􏰓􏰔 are the salt (diffusion) permeability coefficients through the IEMs, h􏰫􏰓􏰔 and h􏰝􏰓􏰔 are the thicknesses of IEMs, 𝐶􏰶􏰝􏰓􏰔, 𝐶􏰏􏰝􏰓􏰔, 𝐶􏰶􏰫􏰓􏰔 and 𝐶􏰏􏰫􏰓􏰔 are the electrolyte concentrations at the various IEM-solution interfaces (solution side) [6, 254] and i is the electric current density. Some models simplify eq. (33) by using only one proportionality factor for both IEMs [141, 199, 254] and/or the bulk concentrations instead of those at the interface [141, 199]. The Ohmic conduction is taken as positive, while the diffusion term that contributes to the total flux must be taken with the suitable sign in eq. (34), i.e. in ED channels the diffusion has to be considered negative, since conduction and diffusion are opposite. The Ohmic conduction is the most important as it is directly linked to the ionic current, while the diffusive flux is the result of the non-ideal membrane permselectivity. Therefore, the influence of diffusion through the IEMs on the overall process strongly depends on the specific membrane [315]. 58
