The mechanism of transfer of solute from one phase to the second is one of molecular and eddy diffusion and the concepts of phase equilibrium, interfacial area, and surface renewal are all similar in principle to those met in distillation and absorption, even though, in liquid-liquid extraction, dispersion is effected by mechanical means including pumping and agitation, except in standard packed columns. 

For transport of BSA (D = 7.3-10 11 m2/s) in a packed bed of porous adsorbents (dp = 90 pm) at 2 cm/min linear flow rate kf is calculated as 9.4 10 6 m/s when a voidage of the packed bed of 0.4 is assumed. As kf is proportional to Re112 fluid side mass transport efficiency is increased with linear flow rate and under conditions of standard packed bed protein chromatography this is not assumed to be the rate limiting step of the sorption process. 

The samples may also be prepared offdine using cartridges which can be filled with any standard packing material used in liquid chromatography. The sample components are recovered by solvent elution and subsequently analyzed according to a standard technique such as those described in section 2.

For analytical LC, standard packed columns (4-8 mm I.D.), capillary packed colunms (50-100 pm I.D.), and microbore packed colunms (0.5-1.5 mm I.D.) are used widely. Colunm sizes depend on the application, e.g., analytical, preparative, or commercial separations. Special configurations also exist, including membrane chromatography modules (stacks and hollow fibers) that offer lower pressure drops and easier scale-up than packed beds. 

Two speciflc experimental improvements are on the horizon. First, a two-loop set-up will replace the existing one-loop set-up for the collection of pi fractions. In the new set-up, one loop will collect the fraction from the CIEF capillary while the contents of the second loop are transferred to the storage loop. In this way, CIEF can run in a continuous mode with improved reproducibility of pi measurement over the stop and go mode. Second, a monolithic column will replace the standard packed column in RPLC. Since monolithic columns typically achieve efficiencies of 25 000, chromatographic resolution can be increased while significantly shortening the analysis time. ... 

We can learn several things from the above observations. First, it is amply demonstrated that it is entirely possible to make surfactants based around metal complexes where the complex is an integral part of the polar headgroup and, therefore, the amphiphile itself Both cationic and anionic surfactants have been realized and in some cases, critical micelle concentrations have been measured standard packing constraint ideas are also found to be applicable. These observations alone show that surfactant metal complexes are no different in their behaviour from the more traditional organic surfactants. More general remarks will be made at the end of this section. 

Packed capillary columns have also been described which have an internal diameter of < 0.5 mm with a solid support particle size of between 100 and 200 p. The characteristics of these columns are more akin to those of simple capillary columns than to the characteristics of packed columns. Their permeability is higher than that of the standard packed column and, therefore, they give fast analysis with a high separation power. The sample loading is considerably higher than what can be introduced without overloading onto a capillary column and, as wider choice of stationary phases is available, packed capillary columns have a wide range of application. 

Kezdi and Domjan (see Winterkorn, Ref. 17) investigated ternary systems with respect to the maximum and minimum void ratios obtained by standardized packing methods, and the coefficients of friction at various void ratios. 

Stimulus cards were made by sticking 4 cm squares of thin coloured washable plastic material onto blank playing cards. Standard packs of 24 cards were made up for Ae four experimental conAtions employed A, B, C and D. In conAtion A a pack of cards was made up of cards of two colours, 12 of each. In conAtion B a pack was made up of four colours, 6 cards of each in C six colours, 4 cards each and in D Aere were eight colours wiA 3 cards for each. A pack of blank cards was used to obtain movement times in each of Ae four conAtions. Thus for pack A Ae choice was between 2 stimuli, and for B, C and D respectively 4,6 or 8 stimuli. 

The extraction of benzoic acid from toluene by water provided the data for Fig. 10.38, representing tests on a variety of packings. These data are correlated in the empirical fashion previously used, which seems to be able to handle large variations in flow rates for either phase. The standard packings (rings and saddles) give better HTU s than the knit copper cloth.

For most of the standard packings, data for or the equivalent are available in handbooks [47] or from manufacturers bulletins for specific systems. For some of the packings, data for k a (or 7/, ) and k a (or are also available, and attempts have been made to correlate these generally in terms of operating conditions [30, 46, 47, 94]. 

Mass-transfer rates The correlations of mass-transfer coefficients for the standard packings discussed in Chap. 6 are suitable for the operations discussed here (see particularly Illustration 6.7). Additional data for humidification with Berl saddles [9] Intalox saddles, and Pall rings [18t] are available. Data for some of the special tower fillings generally used for water-cooling towers are available in texts specializing in this type of equipment [15, 19]. 

The concentration ratio of the last equation can be dropped for dilute solutions. Data for the individual phase coefficients are summarized for standard packings in Chap. 6.
