✦ Synopsis

Ah&r&Mass transfer characteristics (km and a) for rotating disc contactor where a number of discs are mounted on a horizontal shaft and arc partially submerged in a pool of liquid, are determined experimentally for Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids. A simple model based on wetted area is developed which correlates the data within 10%.
