Abstract: Three different sieving coefficient definitions were theoretically investigated. It has been shown that the local sieving coefficient, characterizing membrane property, can be calculated under specified assumptions from input — output measurements. In contrast, the evaluation of the device sieving coefficient, useful in kinetic modeling, is validated in a situation in which calculation of the local sieving coefficient is connected with substantial error. The relationship between different sieving coefficient definitions is also given.
