“…The slopes represent the volumetric mass transfer coefficients, K L ·a. They are given for the three investigated temperatures in Table 1 together with the pK a values for the + 4 NH /NH 3 equilibria calculated by Equations (1) and (2). In the investigated simple mass transfer apparatus, the volumetric mass transfer coefficients were rather low even at the tested elevated temperatures.…”
