Dialysis
Abstract
The main purpose of this experiment is to measure the overall
mass transfer coefficient of a Fresenius F80A hemodialyzer and
to determine the resistances of the lumen, membrane, and shell
mass transfer at different shell and lumen flow rates. Because of
cost and safety concerns, sodium chloride is used as a feed in
the lumen and tap water as a dialysate in the shell in order to
evaluate the performance of the hemodialyzer. It is observed
that as flow rates increase, the overall mass transfer coefficient
increases as well, as a conductivity value (electrolytic) of
exiting fluid increases. This was done by measuring the flow
rate and conductance of the liquids entering and exiting the
F80A hemodialyzer.
Conclusion
The overall mass transfer coefficient in the hemodialyzer
can be increased by increasing the flow rate of the lumen and
shell, until a limit established by the membrane is reached. The
results can be attributed to any number of sources of error.
Some including manual reading errors during calibration of the
flow meters and the values for calibrating the conductance
meters have likely changed since their last calibration. The
largest source of error is most likely from having too few data
points. It is hard to determine the relationship between certain
aspects with just two or three data points.
