System multicomponent

Very little work has been done in this area. Even electrolyte transport has not been well characterized for multicomponent electrolyte systems. Multicomponent electrochemical transport theory [36] has not been applied to transport in lithium-ion electrolytes, even though these electrolytes consist of a blend of solvents. It is easy to imagine that ions are preferentially solvated and ion transport causes changes in solvent composition near the electrodes. Still, even the most sophisticated mathematical models [37] model transport as a binary salt. 

Having considered single component systems, multicomponent systems need to be addressed now. If a closed system contains more than one phase, the equilibrium condition can be written as ... 

For a system with no kinetic or adsorption complications, the forward transition time x decreases while xr increases until finally x = xr in the limit, at steady state. (Because the convergence rate is slow, equality of x and xr is not commonly achieved experimentally before the onset of natural convection and nonplanar diffusion effects.) Quantitative treatments for single component systems, multicomponent systems, stepwise reactions, and systems involving chemical kinetics have been derived. The technique has not been used extensively.

In the five chapters that make up Part II (Chapters 7-11) we consider the estimation of rates of mass and energy transport in multicomponent systems. Multicomponent mass transfer coefficients are defined in Chapter 1, Chapter 8 develops the multicomponent film model, Chapter 9 describes unsteady-state diffusion models, and Chapter 10 considers models based on turbulent eddy diffusion. Chapter 11 shows how the additional complication of simultaneous mass and energy transfer may be handled. 

As an example for multivariate modeling, we consider the simultaneous determination of several components in low-selective analytical systems (multicomponent analysis). These components can be elements, compounds, or chemical/physical properties. By means of multicomponent analysis, constituents of pharmaceutical formulations can be determined in the UV range, the water and protein content of cereal can be estimated from NIR spectra or chemical elements, and technological parameters of coal are predictable on the basis of infrared (IR) spectra. The limited selectivity of chemical sensors can also be overcome by applying the principles of multicomponent analysis.

Xbc three statistical segment lengths, /a, Ib, and /c- We consider the case where A = SPB(89), B = PIB, and C = SPB(63). The temperature dependence of Xab (system 61), Xac (system 33), and Xbc (system 59) are shown in Fig. 19.8(a). Note that the three systems have very different temperature dependencies. Xab is a Type VI system, Xac is a Type I system, and Xbc is a Type II system. Multicomponent A/B/A-C mixtures can thus exhibit unusual phase behavior. 

One other textbook deserves a special mention. The book by G. Froment and K. Bischoff, Chemical Reactor Analysis and Design, aims not to be easy but elegant, introducing the reader directly to the advanced theories of reaction engineering and to the frontiers of research by including complex reaction networks, advanced models for catalytic systems, multicomponent diffusion, and the surface renewal theory for gas-liquid contact. The book is excellent for students who wish to become scientists in chemical reaction engineering.
