In this paper, the influence of carbon and silica particle slurry concentration up to 20 g/l (4 vol%) on regime transition, gas hold-up, and volumetric mass transfer coefficient is studied in a 2-dimensional slurry bubble column. From high speed video image analysis, the average large bubble diameter, the frequency of occurrence of large bubbles, the gas-liquid interfacial area, and the large bubble hold-up are obtained. The liquid side mass transfer coefficient is calculated from the volumetric mass transfer coefficient and the gas-liquid interfacial area. The lyophilic silica particles are rendered lyophobic by a methylation process to study the influence of particle wettability. The influence of organic electrolyte (sodium gluconate) and the combination of electrolyte and particles is also studied. It is found that lyophilic silica, lyophobic silica, and lyophobic carbon particles at concentrations larger than 2 g/l (0.4 vol%) decrease the gas hold-up and shift the regime transition point (where the first large bubbles appear) to a lower gas velocity. The volumetric mass transfer coefficient increases with gas velocity, increases with electrolyte concentration, decreases with slurry concentration, and is higher for lyophobic particles. The liquid side mass transfer coefficient increases with gas velocity, bubble diameter, and is higher for lyophobic particles. A correlation for the mass transfer coefficient based on dimensionless numbers is proposed for the heterogeneous regime.

In this study, the mass transfer accompanied by an instantaneous irreversible chemical reaction in a slurry bubble column containing sparingly soluble fine reactant particles has been analyzed theoretically. Based on the penetration theory, combining the cell model, a one-dimensional mass transfer model was developed. In the model, the effects of the particle size and the particle dissolution near the gas-liquid interface on the mass transfer were taken into account. The mass transfer model was solved and an analytical expression of the time-mean mass transfer coefficient was attained. The reactive absorption of SO2from gas mixtures into Mg(OH)2/water slurry was investigated experimentally in a bubble column reactor to validate the mass transfer model. The results indicate that the present model has good predicting performance and could be used to predict mass transfer coefficient for the complicated gas-liquid-solid three-phase system with an instantaneous irreversible chemical reaction.
