The main difference between these experiments and the pressure drop study is that the process was simplified to a 4-step cycle in order to avoid the complications of an equalization step on process performance. While a significant advantage is gained through an equalization step, it adds additional uncertainty into the analysis since it is difficult to measure. Considering the goal of this study was measuring and explaining the existence of a minimum BSF, not maximizing performance, an equalization step was not necessary. The cycle steps include: 1) feed pressurization 2) production 3) counter-current blowdown 4) counter-current purge. 96
