[Comparison of discrete models of charge transfer in thin membranes. I. Stationary regime]

The model of the ion transport through thin membranes is discussed. It is assumed that there exist some steps of the ion transfer in the membrane volume. Theory of absolute rate of processes is used to derive an equation for stationary transmembrane flow. As a result the thory parameters are connected with the form of potential energy curve of permeable ions into the membrane phase.
