Hydrodynamic and mass transfer characteristics of ejector loop reactors

Gas/liquid mass transfer processes in a carbon dioxide/alkane system

“…The absorption process developed, using the operational regime employed in the present study, is governed by the expression shown in eqn (1).…”

Hydrodynamics and mass transfer characteristics of gas–liquid ejectors

“…Ejectors also produce higher mass transfer rates by generating very small bubbles/droplets of the dispersed phase, thereby improving the contact between phases, which can then be injected into a reaction vessel [1]. Compared to the other gas-liquid contacting systems like stirred tanks and bubble columns, ejectors provide higher values of volumetric mass transfer coefficient [2,3]. In chemical industries, ejectors are also used to entrain and pump corrosive liquids, slurries, fumes and dust-laden gases, which otherwise are difficult to handle [4].…”

Reduction of Empiricism through Flow Visualization and Computational Fluid Dynamics

“…A systematic work plan has been undertaken in this laboratory. In addition, commendable work is being done by various research groups in the world such as Durst and co-workers [20], Dudukovic and co-workers [21], Fan and co-workers [22±23], Kresta and co-workers [24], Krishna and co-workers [25], Kim and coworkers [26], Mann and co-workers [27], Nienow and coworkers [28], Roustan and co-workers [29], van Swaaij and coworkers [31], Svendsen and co-workers [31], van den Akker and co-workers [32], Zahradnik and co-workers [33].
