For lunch I decided to find a park where I've never eaten lunch before. I did find one, and I was amazed I've never noticed it before.
As I sat and ate leisurely I pondered on how to model the fouling in my RO system. Hoek and Elimelech's 2003 paper on cake-enhanced concentration polarization is what I've been working with. The trick is figuring out how to distinguish between cake-enhanced concentration polarization and simple cake resistance. Then I figured, they should be related, right? The parameters in the Carman-Kozeny equation for cake resistence should be the same as for cake-enhanced concentration polarization (specifically the calculation of hindered back-diffusion). We'll see if it works.
