Q. A silica-glass membrane, 2µm thick with pores <10A° in diameter, has been developed for separating from CO at a temperature of 500 °F. From H, laboratory data, the membrane permeabilities for H, and CO, respectively, are 200,000 and 700 barrer, where the barrer, a common unit for gas permeation, is defined by: 1 barrer = 10-10cm°(STP)-cm/cm2-s-cmHg). If the transmembrane, partial-pressure driving forces for H, and CO, respectively, are 240 psi and 80 psi, calculate the transmembrane fluxes in kmol/m2-s.
