The kinetic aspects of the gas-liquid-liquid reactive extraction process for the production of hydrogen peroxide were investigated in a batch reactor. It was observed that the gas-liquid reaction rate is strongly affected by mass transfer of oxygen across the liquid film and the reaction can be simplified to pseudo-first order. The extraction rate is governed by both reaction and liquid-liquid mass transfer, and is slightly lower than the reaction rate. In addition, a kinetic model of the reactive extraction process for the production of hydrogen peroxide was developed. Kinetic parameters under different conditions were determined by experiments. The data calculated from the kinetic model match experimental data well under different conditions for hydrogen peroxide production in gas-liquid-liquid reactive extraction.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
