Abstract

The Maxwell–Stefan (M–S) formulation is shown to be the most convenient and general way of describing diffusion within zeolite structures. This theory goes a long way to explain the observed various types of dependencies of the Fick diffusivity with sorbate loading. For mixture diffusion within zeolites, the M–S theory provides clues for the development of novel separation techniques that rely on diffusion selectivity. We illustrate this aspect by considering a number of practical applications in membrane permeation and chromatographic separations.
