A review of publications devoted to the mathematical simulation of the nanofiltration process was carried out, the advantages, limitations, and areas of application of various modeling approaches were determined. It was found that the most effective approaches are based on the extended Nernst-Planck equation, Donnan equilibrium, as well as methods of computational fluid dynamics and molecular dynamics. The use of software for solving nanofiltration simulation problems was considered.
