Investigation of Operating Parameters’ Effects on Bubble Characteristics in a Co-Current Downflow Bubble Column [PDF]
Iranian Journal of Chemistry & Chemical Engineering, 2022 Bubble columns are frequently employed as multiphase reactors and gas-liquid contactors. In the bubble column, gas is dispersed into the liquid phase. The dispersion of gas into a liquid is the function of bubble size and its distribution.
