Gas-liquid contactor using gas entrainment by liquid flowing downward into downcomer.

Visual Observation of Flow Regime Transition in Downward Vertical Gas-Liquid Flow Using Simple Mixer

Different flow patterns of downward gas-liquid two-phaseflow using simple mixer are studied in an experimental manner. An experimental setup is designed and fabricated to allow the visual observation of downward two-phase flow patterns and their transitions. The flow patterns are recorded by a 1200 frames per second high speed video camera. The quality of downward two-phase flow patterns photos...

Regeneration of СO2 Physical Solvents at Elevated Pressures in Gas-Liquid Membrane Contactor

In the present work, a membrane contactor with asymmetric flat-sheet poly(vinyltrimethylsilane) (PVTMS) membranes was proposed for the CO2 desorption process from physical solvents at elevated trans-membrane pressures. Different solvents were studied: water, a mixture of polyethylene g...

Correlating Physicochemical Properties of Commercial Membranes with CO2 Absorption Performance in Gas-Liquid Membrane Contactor

The gas-liquid membrane contactor (GLMC) is a promising alternative gas absorption/desorption configuration for effective carbon dioxide (CO2 ) capture. The physicochemical properties of membranes may synergistically affect GLMC performances, especially during the long-term operations. In this work, commercial polypropylene (PP) and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) hollow fiber (HF) membranes wer...

Gas-liquid chromatography: the gas-density meter, a new apparatus for the detection of vaporus in flowing gas streams.

The separation of volatile substances by gasliquid chromatography (James & Martin, 1952; James, Martin & Smith, 1952; James, 1952; James & Martin, 1954; Ray, 1954a, b) requires that the substances be detected as they leave the chromatogram in the stream of gas that acts as the mobile phase of the system. A number of methods of detection of varying sensitivity have already been developed (James ...
