β¦ Synopsis
Bubble column reactors are widely used in the fields of petrochemical, biochemical, and chemical engineering processes. They are comparable to other multiphase reactors because of their simplicity, low operating costs, and higher heat and mass transfer coefficients between phases. Since a continuous bubble column reactor consists of a dispersed gas phase in the continuous liquid phase, the bubble size and its phase holdup are needed to estimate the phase contacting capability between the phases, which plays a vital role in the effective performance of such reactors.
The volumetric mass transfer coefficients in batch and continuous bubble columns have been determined by several investiga-
