Abstract
The asymmetry effects in gas and electrolyte transport through composite membranes are considered. The interrelation between the kinetic theory and non-equilibrium thermodynamics description of gas mixture transport in channels is discussed. The kinetic expressions for transport and slip coefficients are given. The effect of surface forces on gas transport is discussed. A set of general equations related to gas mixture flows in capillaries and porous media is deduced. The nano-size effects in gas flows are outlined. The theoretical analysis of one-way flow effect and asymmetric separation properties of a two-layer porous membrane is given.
