Gas–liquid mass transfer enhancement in the presence of nanoparticles under slug flow in microreactors

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Nanofluids containing nanoparticles represent a promising solvent or reaction system for gas–liquid operations. Herein, the effect of nanoparticle (Al2O3 and SiO2) addition on gas–liquid slug flow pattern and mass transfer enhancement was investigated during CO2 absorption into water in microreactors.
