In a general way, "percolation" might be defined as a process in
which at least two phases, one continuous and the other dispersed,
are in bulk relative movement and exchange heat and/or mass through
their interface. In practical terms this covers operations such as
adsorption, ion exchange, leaching, washing, fluid-fluid
displacement in po rous media, deep bed filtration, chromatography.
Apart from the fact that the design of these processes is almost
empirical we have concluded to the necessity of organizing a Summer
School on this topic because 1. Powerful new concepts have emerged
in this area in the last decade, centered around unsteady-state,
non-linearly coupled, multi component systems, and low energy
processes 2. There is, potentially, a phenomenologythat is common
to all percolation operations, and which even extends to other mi
gration phenomena such as electrophoresis, sedimentation, traffic
flow 3. There is a need for a synthetic and didatic approach to
these problems and its spreading will be most fruitful for the de
velopment of separation science. We have tried to choose lecturers
who have, themselves, ma de significant contributions toward the
development of such an approach. The lectures given at the Summer
School held at Espinho, Portugal in July 17-29, 1978 were compiled
in this volume. It is VI divided in three parts. In the first part
some general and intro ductory notions common to all operations are
presented and chroma tography is analised in detail."
