THREE-PHASE FLUIDIZED BEDS WITH VISCOUS LIQUID: HYDRODYNAMICS AND MASS TRANSFER

Hydrodynamics and gas/fiquid mass transfer in fluidized beds of glass spheres (3-8 mm diameter)were studied employing viscous aqueous solutions (16-53 mPas) Increasing liquid viscosity reduced the bubble disintegration capability of the particle beds.

Zusammenfassung:Hydrodynamics and gas/fiquid mass transfer in fluidized beds of glass spheres (3-8 mm diameter)were studied employing viscous aqueous solutions (16-53 mPas) Increasing liquid viscosity reduced the bubble disintegration capability of the particle beds. The most pronounced consequence was a strong decrease in the volumetric mass transfer coefficients (k L a) From a comparison of k L a in Newtonian and pseudoplastic liquids it is concluded that the effective shear rates in three-phase fluidized beds are higher than in bubble columns.
