4.1 Diffusion of biological solutes in liquidsDiffusion of small solute molecules

[especially macromolecules (e.g. proteins)] in aqueous solutions are important in the processing & storing of biological systems & in life processes of microorganisms, animals, plants.

bblee@UniMAP7

In fermentation processes:Nutrients, sugars, oxygen etc diffuse to

the microorganisms, and waste products & at times enzymes diffuse away.

Macromolecules in solution having molecular weights of tens of thousands or more were often called colloids. The diffusion behavior of protein

macromolecules is affected by size & shape.

bblee@UniMAP8

Interaction and “binding” in diffusion.Protein macromolecules are very large

compared to small solute molecules (e.g. urea, KCl, sodium coprylate) and often have a number of sites for interactions or “binding” of the solute or ligandmolecules.Human serum albumin protein binds most

of the free fatty acids in the blood & increases their apparent solubility.

bblee@UniMAP9

Experimental data for biological solutes. Table 6.4-1 shows a tabulation of

diffusivities of a few proteins and small solutes often present in biological systems.

The diffusion coefficients for the large protein molecules are on the order of magnitude of 5 x10-11 m2/s compared to the values of about 1x10-9 m2/s for the small solutes.

bblee@UniMAP10

Macromolecules diffuse at a rate about 20 times as slow as small solute molecules for the same concentration differences.The diffusivity of macromolecules is

strongly dependent on the surface charges on the molecules.

bblee@UniMAP11

Prediction of diffusivities for biological solutesFor predicting the diffusivity of small solutes alone in aqueous solution with molecular weights < 1000 or solute molar volumes < 0.500 m3/kg mol:

bblee@UniMAP15

Prediction of diffusivity of small solutes in protein solutions When a small solute (A) diffuses

through a macromolecule protein (P) solution, blockage to diffusion by the large molecules happens.

The data needed to predict these effects are diffusivity DAB of solute A in water alone, the water if hydration on the protein, & an obstruction factor.

bblee@UniMAP16

A semitheoretical equation that can be used to approximate the diffusivity DAP of A in globular-type protein P solutions (where only the blockage effect is considered and no binding is present):

Gels:Semisolid materials, which are pores.They are composed of macromolecules

which are usually in dilute aqueous solution with the gel comprising a few %wt of the water solution.The pores (open spaces) in the gel

structure are filled with water.

bblee@UniMAP 20

The rates of diffusion of small solutes in the gels are somewhat less than in aqueous solution.

Some typical gels: agarose, agar & gelatin.A number of organic polymers exist as

gels in various types of solutions.The unsteady-state methods are used

to measure the diffusivity of solutes in gels.The gel is melted & poured into a

narrow tube open at one end.

bblee@UniMAP21

After solidification, the tube is placed in an agitated bath containing the solute for diffusion.The solute leaves the solution at the

gel boundary and diffuses through the gel itself.After a period of time, the amount

diffusing in the gel is determined to give the diffusion coefficient of the solute in the gel.

solutes in various gels.The diffusivity of the solute in pure

water is given so that the decrease in diffusivity due to the gel can be seen. at 278K urea in water has a diffusivity

of 0.880x10-9 m2/s; in 2.9 wt% gelatin, has a value of 0.640

5.1 Introduction & types of diffusion in solids

Even though rates of diffusion of gases, liquids, & solids in solids are generally slower than rates in liquids and gases, mass transfer in solids is quite important in chemical & biological processing.Leaching of soybeans and metal ores Drying of timber, salts, foods Diffusion of gasses through polymer

film used in packaging

bblee@UniMAP 26

The transport in solids can be broadly classified:1. Diffusion that can be considered to

follow Fick’s law and does not dependprimarily on the actual structure of the solid.

2. Diffusion in porous solids where the actual structure and void channels are important.

bblee@UniMAP27

5.2.1 Derivation of equationsThe diffusion occurs when the fluid or

solute diffusing is actually dissolved in the solid to form a more or less homogenous solution. The diffusion in solids does not depend

on the actual structure of the solid. Example, leachingThe solid contains a large amount of

water and a solute is diffusing through this solution, or

The diffusion coefficient DAB in the solid is not dependent upon the pressure of the gas or liquid on the outside of the solid.The solubility of a solute gas (A) in a solid

is usually expressed as S m3 solute (at STP of 00C and 1atm) / m3 solid per atm partial pressure of A.

5.2.2 Permeability equations for diffusion in solids

Diffusion of gases in solids are not given as diffusivities and solubilities but as permeabilities (PM) PM, m3 of solute gas (A) at STP (00C, 1

atm) diffusing per second per m2 cross sectional area through a solid 1 m thick under a pressure difference of 1 atmpressure.

5.2.3 Experimental diffusivities, solubilities, & permeabilities

Accurate prediction of diffusivities in solids is generally not possible. Lack of knowledge of the theory of the

solid state. Experimental values are needed (see

Table 6.5-1).

bblee@UniMAP39

Table 6.5-1:Diffusivities & Permeabilities in solids

bblee@UniMAP40

For the simple gasses such as He, H2, O2, N2, CO2 with gas pressures up to 1 or 2 atm, the solubility in solids such as polymers and glasses generally follows Henry’s law.

S α PA1

bblee@UniMAP41

For these gasses, the diffusivity & permeability are independent of concentration & pressure.

Temperature effect: ln PM is approximately a linear function of 1/T.

The diffusion of one gas is approximately independent of the other gases present, such as O2 and N2.

bblee@UniMAP42

For metals (e.g. Ni, Cd, Pt) where gases such as H2, O2 are diffusing, it has been found experimentally that the flux is approximately proportional to (√pA1 -√pA2).

When water is diffusing through polymers, unlike the simple gases, PM may depend on the relative pressure difference.

bblee@UniMAP43

5.3.1 Diffusion of liquids in porous solidsThe effect of porous solids that have

pores or interconnected voids in the solid on diffusion.

Figure 6.5-2: A cross section of a typical porous solid

bblee@UniMAP44

In the situation where the voids are filled completely with liquid water, the concentration of salt in water in boundary 1 is cA1 & at point 2 is cA2.The salt, in diffusing through the water

in the void volume, takes a tortuous path which is unknown and > z2-z1 by a factor (τ) called tortuosity.Diffusion does not occur in the inert

solid.

If the voids are filled with gases, then a somewhat similar situation exists [same equation can be used].

τ must be determined experimentally. Diffusion is assumed to occur only through

the voids or pores and not through the actual solid particles.

A correlation of tortuosity (τ) versus the void fraction (ε) of various unconsolidated porous media of beds of glass spheres, sand, salt, talc, etc gives the following approximate values of τ for different values of ε.

6.1 Derivation of basic equationIn previous sections, we considered

various mass transfer systemsThe concentration or partial pressure

at any point and diffusion flux were constant with time, hence at steady state.

Before steady state can be reached, time must elapse after the mass transfer process is initiated for the unsteady-state conditions to disappear.

7.1 Introduction to convective mass transfer

In previous sections, molecular diffusion in stagnant fluids or fluids in laminar flow was emphasized.

In many cases the rate of diffusion is slow & more rapid transfer is desired. The fluid velocity is

increaseduntil turbulentmass transfer occurs.

bblee@UniMAP71

To have a fluid in convective flow usually requires the fluid to be flowing past another immiscible fluid or a solid surface. A fluid flowing in a pipe, where part of

the pipe wall is made by a slightly dissolving solid material like benzoic acid.

The benzoic acid dissolves & is transported perpendicular to the main stream from the wall.

bblee@UniMAP72

When a fluid is in turbulent flow & is flowing past a surface, the actual velocity of small particles of fluid cannotbe described clearly as in laminar flow.

In laminar flow the fluid flows in streamlines & its behavior can usually be described mathematically.

In turbulent motion there are no streamlines; instead there are large eddies or „chunks‟ of fluid moving rapidly in seemingly random fashion.

bblee@UniMAP73

When a solute A is dissolving from a solid surface, there is a high concentration of this solute in the fluid at the surface, and its concentration, in general, decreases as the distance from the wall increases.

Figure 7.2-1: Concentration profile in turbulent mass transfer from a surface to a fluid.

bblee@UniMAP74

Three regions of mass transfer:1. Adjacent to the surface: A thin, viscous sublayer film is present.Most of the mass transfer occurs by

molecular diffusion, since few or no eddies are present.A large concentration drop occurs

across this film as a result of the slow diffusion rate.

bblee@UniMAP75

2. Buffer region:Some eddies are present, and the mass

transfer is the sum of turbulent and molecular diffusion.

3. Turbulent region:Most of the transfer is by turbulent

diffusion, with a small amount by molecular diffusion.The concentration decrease is very

small since the eddies tend to keep the fluid concentration uniform.

bblee@UniMAP76

7.2.1 Definition of mass-transfer coefficient
