Gas-liquid mass transfer in cocurrent froth flow

experimental investigation of power consumption, mass transfer coefficient and flow regime in gas-liquid dispersion systems

Study on Mass Transfer Enhancement in a Gas-Liquid System Using Nanomaterials

The main objective of this paper is to examine the effect of nanomaterials on mass transfer coefficient in bubble type absorption of carbon dioxide by experiment. The absorption process is carried out in a bubble column and in room temperature. Mass transfer coefficient, saturated concentration of CO2, and gas holdup are determined in this system. The kinds of nanomaterials, the concentrations ...

Turbulent Events and Gas-Side Mass Transfer Coefficients in a Wavy Air-Water Stratified Flow

Turbulence structure on the gas side of a wavy stratified flow was experimentally investigated in a near horizontal 18.7 cm (H) 10 cm (W) 5.5m (L) rectangular duct.By applying the Variable Interval Time Averaging (VITA) technique to the hot wire anemometer measurements frequency of occurrence of turbulent events were detected near the air-water interface. Experimental results showed that fr...

Parameters characterising the pulsing flow for cocurrent flow of gas and foaming liquid in a pressurised trickle-bed reactor

The aim of the present work was to experimentally determine the parameters characterizing the pulse flow of liquids through bed i.e. the frequency of pulsation and the velocity of pulses travelling along the bed and next to work out the correlation equations enabling their assessment. The research was carried out in a pressure reactor (pressures up to 2 MPa) having 0.05 m in diameter and being ...

Mass Transfer in a Closed Stirred Gas / Liquid Contactor Part 1 : The Mass Transfer Rate

Liquid phase mass transfer rates kLS for the absorption of oxygen in tap water and in aqueous ionic solutions have been determined in two closed stirred tank contactors for a power input between 3 and 70 W/kg and (impeller diameter)f(tank diameter) ratios DifT of 0.3, 0.35 and 0.4. The contactors had diameters of 0. I9 and 0.6 m. The dispersed phase fraction was 1% by volume in all experiments....
