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 ...

Experiments were conducted in a 0.25 m diameter bubble column to investigate the effect of animal cell culture medium composition on oxygen transfer rate. Air is used as the dispersed phase. The gas superficial velocity is varied between 0.4 and 2 cm/s (aeration rate ranging between 0.05 and 0.25 vvm) and the bubble column is thus operated in the homogenous regime. Aqueous solutions the composi...

Mass transfer studies are carried out in a bubble column with an internal diameter of 14 cm and various static liquid heights. The mass transfer coefficient is evaluated by using an oxygen sorption method. A model considering the gas holdup flushing and the sensor response is used. The interfacial mass transfer area is determined according to the measured bubble size distribution. The liquid-si...

We have studied bubble motion within a column of foam allowed to undergo free drainage. We have measured bubble motion upward with time and as a function of their initial positions. Depending on the gas used, which sets the coarsening and drainage rates, different bubble upward motion types have been identified (constant speed, acceleration or deceleration) and explained in relation with liquid...
