Abstract

In order to take the dissolved gas in the bulk liquid into consideration, the absorption rate with chemical reaction and the overall reaction rate are analyzed separately on the basis of film theory. Using these rates, general design equations are derived for the multistage gas-liquid reactor.
Since stage-to-stage calculations with trial-and-error are required to solve the design equations, simplification of the solution is discussed for practical purposes.
As a result, a method of graphical analysis is presented for solving the design equations when dissolved gas in the liquid bulk may be neglected.
Furthermore, the relation between absorption and overall reaction rates is represented graphically to eliminate much of the tedious trial-and-error calculation required.
