Abstract
The regularities of the formation of diffusion boundary layers during the transport of aliphatic acids in electromembrane systems are studied and their characteristics obtained experimentally are analyzed. It is shown that their concentration profiles in solutions of the electrodialyzer sections are asymmetric near membranes of different polarity. Experimental values of diffusion layer thicknesses are compared with those following from the known theoretical relations. The equation, which is proposed for the surface concentration, permits the prediction of the operation mode of apparatus during electrodialysis of solutions of aliphatic acids and other weak electrolytes. Specific features characterizing the emergence of a limiting state and the character of the distribution of limiting current densities over the height of the membrane channel are revealed.
