The objective of the paper is twofold: first, to review the classical diffusion models and show the approximations at the origin of the parabolic character of the classical equations; second, to demonstrate a connection between the quantum and classical models of diffusion. As diffusion is inherently related to the motion of constituents, the consistent models are framed within the dynamics of mixtures. The derivation of diffusion equations is then determined based on the related, pertinent approximations.

A mathematical model of amperometric biosensors has been developed. The model bases on non-stationary diffusion equations containing a non-linear term related to Michaelis-Menten kinetic of the enzymatic reaction. The model describes the biosensor response to mixtures of multiple compounds in two regimes of analysis: batch and flow injection. Using computer simulation, large amount of biosensor response data were synthesised for calibration of a biosensor array to be used for characterization of wastewater. The computer simulation was carried out using the finite difference technique.

The paper presents alternative forms of partial differential equations of the parabolic type used in chemical engineering for description of heat and mass transfer. It points at the substantial difference between the classic form of the equations, following from the differential balances of mass and enthalpy, and the form following from the concept of stochastic motion of particles of mass or energy component. Examples are presented of the processes that may be described by the latter method. The paper also reviews the cases when the two approaches become identical.

The differences between the QELSS and classical diffusion coefficient of a polydisperse polymer resulting from distinct definitions of experimentally accessible average values are calculated for two assumed specific forms of molar mass distributions. Predicted deviations are compared with the experiment using NBS 706 standard polystyrene. QELSS Dz of this sample relates within 2-4% to the classical diffusion coefficient, if the Schulz-Zimm molar mass distribution is assumed to be valid. In general, differences between the height-area and QELSS diffusion coefficient of about 20% may be found for Mw/Mn ~ 2, and this value may increase above 35%, if strongly tailing molar mass distribution pertains to the sample.

Parabolic partial differential equations used in chemical engineering for the description of mass transport and heat transfer and analogous relationship derived in stochastic processes theory are given. A standard transformation procedure is applied, allowing these relations to be generally written in curvilinear coordinates and particular expressions for cylindrical and spherical coordinates to be derived. The relation between the probability density for the position of a discernible particle and the concentration of a set of such particles is discussed.
