Abstract
For three-phase liquid emulsion membranes, a reaction zone model is derived on the basis of the known reaction front model. Differences between the two are discussed in terms of the concepts and some results. The reaction zone model is more generally valid and it simplifies to the earlier model under appropriate conditions.
