In this work, an absorption technology   was used actually to investigation the  mass transfer coefficient of carbon dioxide from a gaseous mixture (air, carbon dioxide) in  blended solution Monoethanolamine (MEA) and Diethanolamine (DEA)  in a bubble column reactor (BCR) . The bubble column reactor(BCR) was made of Plexiglas with 1.5 m high and 0.1 m inside diameter. The overall mass transfer coefficient (  was evaluated at different operating conditions , gas flow rate, air Flow rate ,liquid flow rate .Where the gas flow rates were 10, 15 and 20 L /min ,  air flow rate 100,150 and 200 L/h ,and liquid flow rate 5 ,10,15 L /min . This experiment  by   using  continuous   process with helping centrifugal  pump  . High-performance gas chromatographic (GC) was performed to evaluate  loading during absorption experiment . The  experimental results have shown that the   loading in range of  0.581-1.367 (mol  /mole amine),and the maximum value of overall mass transfer coefficient ( KG) was 0.04 S-1 .

This research was conducted to calculate the mass transfer coefficient value for ozonation reaction of κ-carrageenan solution in the bubble column reactor. Ozone gas was produced using ozone generator type corona discharge. In this study, operating conditions were regulated at ozone gas flow rate 2- 5 L min-1, pH 4-10, and temperature 29 ± 1 oC. Samples were tested every 5 minutes to determine the dissolved ozone concentration. The results showed that dissolved ozone concentrations increased with increasing ozonation time and ozone gas flow rate. However, a very high gas flow rate can increase turbulence so that the mass transfer coefficient (kLa) value decreased. In alkaline conditions, the formation of free radicals (HO*) increases so that the amount of dissolved ozone decreases. The kLa value of ozone gas in κ-carrageenan solution is slightly lower than the kLa value of the ozone gas in the water. The results of this study indicate that (kLa) ozone gas in water is 0.131 / minute while the value (kLa) in κ-carrageenan solution is 0.128 / minute.

Abstract Bubble size has a key role in gas holdup and mass transfer in bubble column reactors. In order to have small and uniform bubbles, a new structure was designed; the reactor operates in two modes, with vibrating sparger and conventional bubble column in which sparger is fixed. In vibrating mode, the sparger vibrates gently during gas entering. The vibrating sparger performs like a paddle, resulting in a forced recirculation of gas–liquid inside the reactor; moreover, the bubble detachment is accelerated. The superficial gas velocity was between 0.003 and 0.013 ms− 1, and the vibration frequency was changed between 0 and 10.3 Hz. The bubble size was measured at three various positions of the reactor height by photographic method and using MATLAB 7.0.1 software. The mass transfer coefficient was determined by means of the dynamic gassing-out method. The results show that the bubbles were bigger in vibrating mode than those working without vibration. The bubble size decreases with increase in height from sparger. Gas holdup increased with increase in superficial gas velocity and vibration frequency. The effect of vibration increased the gas holdup with an average of 70% for all superficial gas velocities. Volumetric mass transfer coefficient was almost stable as vibration frequency increased.

The effect of flow rate of ozone-containing gas and pH on the mass transfer coefficient of ozone through water in a bubble column reactor has been studied. Ozone was generated from air using a corona discharge ozone generator. The flow rate of air was varied from 2 to 5 L min-1, while pH was varied from 4 to 10. The gas containing ozone was bubbled to the reactor containing 1.5 L of 2% KI solution. The temperature was set at 28±1ºC. The concentration of ozone was determined using titrimetric method every 5 minutes. The results show that the concentration of ozone increases with time, and it reaches a steady-state concentration after 30 minutes of ozonation. The gas flow rate and pH apparently affect both the concentration and the kLa. The highest kLa of 2.1 X 10-2 s-1 is obtained at pH 4 with a gas flow rate of 4 L min-1.

Experimental investigation of gas-liquid mass transfer of ozone in water, in bubble column with two-fluid nozzle gas distributor (BKDM), under different operating conditions, are presented in this work. The main objective was to determine the ozone volumetric mass transfer coefficient, kL a, in calm uniform section of the column, under different values of gas and liquid flow rates. Obtained values of these coefficients were compared with the values in countercurrent bubble column. The critical liquid flowrate, when gas hold up reaches its maximum, was experimentally determined. It was shown that the maximum value of the ozone volumetric mass transfer coefficient is obtained just when liquid flowrate is at its critical value.
