Artificial organs may be considered as small-scale process plants,
in which heat, mass and momentum transfer operations and, possibly,
chemical transformations are carried out. This book proposes a
novel analysis of artificial organs based on the typical bottom-up
approach used in process engineering. Starting from a description
of the fundamental physico-chemical phenomena involved in the
process, the whole system is rebuilt as an interconnected ensemble
of elemental unit operations. Each artificial organ is presented
with a short introduction provided by expert clinicians. Devices
commonly used in clinical practice are reviewed and their
performance is assessed and compared by using a mathematical model
based approach. Whilst mathematical modelling is a fundamental tool
for quantitative descriptions of clinical devices, models are kept
simple to remain focused on the essential features of each process.
Postgraduate students and researchers in the field of chemical and
biomedical engineering will find that this book provides a novel
and useful tool for the analysis of existing devices and, possibly,
the design of new ones. This approach will also be useful for
medical researchers who want to get a deeper insight into the basic
working principles of artificial organs.
