Column¶

class qsdsan.equipments.Column(ID='', linked_unit=None, units={'Material of the column': '', 'Number of columns': '', 'Surface area of columns': 'm2'}, F_BM=1.0, lifetime=10000, lifetime_unit='hr', N=0, material='resin', unit_cost=0.1, surface_area=1)¶

Columns to be used in an electrochemical cell. Refer to the example in ElectroChemCell for how to use this class.

Parameters:

N (int) – Number of units of the given column.
material (str) – Material of the column.
unit_cost (float) – Unit cost of the column per m2, will use default cost (if available) if not provided.
surface_area (float) – Surface area of the column in m2.
