Organic liquids in a bubble column: Holdups and mass transfer coefficients
Abstract
Abstract Gas holdups and volumetric mass transfer coefficients kLa are studied in a bubble column of 0.095 m dia. with 50 different gas‐liquid systems comprising pure and mixed organic liquids and various gases. The gas holdups measured in pure organic liquids can be represented by existing correlations but the values in liquid mixtures are high. On the other hand, all mass transfer coefficients can be correlated uniformly by a new dimensionless equation, with 13.3% mean error.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
