Why SFC is faster than LC

Updated on December 20, 2024

 This follows from basic theory, as summarized in Equation 6.1, which is repeated below.

 

 

 

Because SFC columns are very similar to LC columns (most columns can be used for both), all parameters indicated with blue callouts are the same for LC and for SFC. Because diffusion coefficients are about an order of magnitude higher in SFC, this technique may be 10 times faster. 

See Section 6.1 for a more-detailed analysis.
