The main objective of the present paper is to propose a new model of the hydrodynamics in an air-lift internal loop reactor. The model is based on one-dimensional (I D) two-fluid mass and momentum balances. It requires closure relations for the slip velocity of the gas bubbles and both friction fact

The hydrodynamic model of Young et al. (1 991) for external-loop gas-lift reactors was modified to account for buoyancy forces in the gas phase. The revised model is based on macroscopic balances for the gas-liquid separator and external downcomer and spatially-averaged, 1-D mass and momentum balanc
## Abstract The objective of this study is to characterize mass transfer in a rectangular airβlift loop reactor in twoβphase flow. In a previous work, it has been shown that the reactor presents a complex gas flow pattern. Therefore, first, the global mass transfer volumetric coefficient __k~L~a__
