Effects of Contaminants on the Mass‐Transfer Characteristics of a Two‐Impinging‐Streams Gas‐Liquid Reactor

The mass‐transfer characteristics of a new type of two‐impinging‐streams reactor (TISR) was studied by means of sodium sulfite solution as the liquid phase and air as the gas phase, in the presence and absence of various types of surface‐active agents (SAAs). The influences of anionic, cationic, and nonionic SAAs on the specific interfacial area and overall volumetric mass‐transfer coefficient obtained in the TISR were investigated. It was found that the presence of a little amount of the above‐mentioned contaminants increases the specific interfacial area and decreases the overall volumetric mass‐transfer coefficient. On the basis of the experimental results obtained for various types of SAAs, correlations were derived for the interfacial area as well as the Sherwood number for the liquid phase in terms of Froude, Reynolds, Schmidt, and Morton numbers.     

Experimental and Numerical Study of Gas-Liquid Flow in a Sectionalized External-Loop Airlift Reactor

The external loop airlift reactor(EL-ALR) is widely used for gas-liquid reactions. It's advantage of good heat and mass transfer rates compared to conventional bubble column reactors. In the case of fermentation application where a medium is highly viscous and coalescing in nature, internal in riser helps in the improvement of the interfacial area as well as in the reduction of liquid-phase back mixing. The computational fluid dynamic(CFD) as a tool is used to design and scale-up of sectionalized external loop airlift reactor.

The correlation has been made for bubble size distribution with specific power consumption for different plate configurations. The effects of an internal on different mass transfer models have been completed to assess their suitability.The predicted local mass transfer coefficient has been found higher in the sectionalized external loop airlift reactor than the conventional EL-ALR.

Region-dependent mass transfer behavior in a forced circulation airlift loop reactor

The contribution of local regions to global mass transfer holds the key to optimization and scale-up of a reactor. Extensive study has been conducted to investigate gas-liquid mass transfer occurring in the internal airlift loop reactor, but mostly restricted to global mass transfer performance. A cold model forced circulation internal airlift loop reactor was employed and divided into six regions in which dissolved oxygen concentration in slurry and mass transfer interfacial area were measured respectively. Different models were utilized to calculate volumetric mass transfer coefficient. Contributions of individual region to global mass transfer performance were calculated and compared. It was found that mass transfer coefficient and mass transfer interfacial area of individual region increases with increasing superficial gas velocity and slurry feed flowrate. The feed affected region has the greatest mass transfer coefficient and volumetric mass transfer coefficient, contributing more than 30% to global mass transfer in most operating condition. Mass transfer interfacial area is close in the gas distributor region, feed affected region and the gas-slurry separator region. In the present work, circulating bubbles are rare and contribute negligibly to the global mass transfer. Global volumetric mass transfer coefficient is close to that of the gas-slurry separator region, ranging from 0.02 to 0.1 1/s. Comparison of k_La is made between this work and literatures, suggesting a great improvement of mass transfer due to external liquid circulation.     

气液传质界面湍动现象投影观察

In gas-liquid mass transfer processes,interfacial turbulence may occur due to the surface tension gradient and the density gradient produced by mass transfer near the interface.The interfacial turbulence can enhance the mass transfer since it intensifies the movement of interfacial fluid.By means of the shadowgraph optical method,the interfacial turbulence patterns vertical to the interface were observed directly in the volatilization process of binary systems.The images of the amplified interfacial turbulence showed the variation of concentration and the fluid movement under the interface.Two patterns of interfacial turbulence were observed in the experiments：plume and vortex.With the plume,the interfacial fluid moved slowly and penetrated the liquid deeply.With the vortex,the interfacial turbulence occurred in the vicinity of the liquid interface and the fluid moves quite fast.A qualitative analysis was carried out based on the mechanism of Rayleigh-Bénard convection induced by density gradient and Marangoni convection induced by surface tension gradient.     

Mass transfer with chemical reaction in liquid foam reactors

Mass transfer studies were conducted in a stable liquid foam reactor under various operating conditions to evaluate gas holdup, effective interfacial area, liquid-phase mass transfer coefficient and a modified interfacial mass transfer coefficient to include the surface-active agents employed. Gas holdup and effective interfacial area were evaluated experimentally. The interfacial mass transfer coefficient was evaluated semitheoretically, by considering the interfacial region as a separate phase and using the experimental data developed for mass transfer accompanied by a fast first-order chemical reaction. The liquid-phase mass transfer coefficient was also evaluated semitheoretically, using Danckwert's theory for the liquid phase and the experimental data on mass transfer accompanied by a slow pseudofirst-order chemical reaction. An experimental unit was set up to provide a stable flowing foam column, simulating the foam reactor. Mass transfer rates were studied for superfacial gas velocities in the range from 1.5 × 10⁻² m/s to 5 × 10⁻² m/s, giving gas residence times in the range from 20 to 55 seconds. A cationic and nonionic surface-active agent and three different wire mesh sizes, giving bubble size distributions in the range from 2.2 to 5.4 mm Sauter mean diameters, were employed. It is observed that gas holdup is insensitive to the type of surface-active agent; it is however, dependent on wire mesh size and gas velocity. The bubble diameter and, hence, the interfacial area are found to be insensitive to gas velocity in the range studied; they are, however, strong functions of wire mesh size. The liquid-phase mass transfer coefficient increases with increase in gas velocity. The surface-active agent introduces additional resistance to mass transfer in both reaction cases, this being the controlling one in the case of the fast reaction. A comparison with conventional packed bed contactors indicates the mass transfer rates to be about 8 times lower for the foam reactor, for the fast reaction case; for slow reactions, the foam reactor has mass transfer rates approximately 2-4 times higher than those for conventional packed bed contactors.
