Comments: the paper describes a study made with OSN Designer (OSN stands for Organic Solvent Nanofiltration), a library of MATLAB modules that can accessed any CAPE-OPEN Property Package (used here with Aspen Properties®) to obtain the thermodynamic and physical properties necessary to the calculations. OSN Designer provides modules specifically adapted to the simulation of membrane-based processes.
