Interfacial Concentration in Mass Transfer Operations Formulas

Interfacial Concentration refers to the concentration of solute molecules or ions at the interface between the liquid phase (solution) and the solid phase (crystal). And is denoted by C_i. Interfacial Concentration is usually measured using the Mole per Cubic Meter for Molar Concentration. Note that the value of Interfacial Concentration is always positive.
