The hydrodynamics and mass transfer, specifically the effects of gas velocity and the presence and type of solids on the gas hold-up and volumetric mass transfer coefficient, were studied on a lab-scale airlift reactor with internal draft tube. Basalt particles and biofilmcoated particles were used

## Abstract Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is used to compare the hydrodynamics and mass transfer of an internal airlift reactor with that of a bubble column reactor, operating with an air/water system in the homogeneous bubble flow regime. The liquid circulation velocities are significantly hi
The hydrodynamics and gas-liquid mass transfer performan ce of a venturi, with the liquid flowing downward, were studied. Two different hydrodynamic zones appeared within the venturi. In the first zone, just below the venturi throat, the gas formed a central core and the liquid a peripheral aunulus,
