Abstract
Composite separation units (i.e. assemblages of similar elementary separation units) are studied. Dialysis is used as an example of a basic unit. The overall input-output response of a composite group made up of a system of interconnected dialyzers is developed in relation to the system configuration. In certain flow configurations, a composite dialyzer has the permeability characteristics of a band-pass filter. Since the selectivity of composite dialyzer systems can be amplified by repeating the units in a cascading manner, a specific solute of intermediate permeability can, in principle, be extracted from a complex multicomponent solution.
