Experiments of pressure effects on gas holdup and bubble size in slurry bubble columns at 5.6 MPa and at gas ยฎelocities up to 45 cmrs indicate that the gas holdup increases with an increase in pressure, especially at high slurry concentration. At ambient pressure, a higher solids concentration signi

Gas holdup in bubble columns has been investigated over a wide range of operational and geometrical parameters. A criterion has been developed for the prediction of the transitional velocity from the homogeneous to heterogeneous flow regime. Correlations for gas holdup in both regimes are developed
Experimental and theoretical studies of axial solid distributions in slurry bubble columns have been carried out extensively (Cova, 1966;Smith et al., 1986; Jean et al., 1989;Reilly et al., 1990). Most of the experimental works performed in this area have characterized the solid concentration profil
