“…Some researchers recorded gas holdup decreases with increasing fiber mass fraction (Went et al, 1993;Reese et al, 1996;Janse et al, 1999), but some others observed that gas holdup in a GLF suspension can be significantly higher than that recorded in a GL system operating under similar conditions (Lindsay et al, 1995;Schulz and Heindel, 2000). Hence, it is necessary to further study the effect of fiber addition (mass fraction) on gas holdup and determine factors that influence the results.…”
