HYDRODYNAMICS OF THREE PHASE FLUID DISPERSE COLUMNS

Abstract

In industry, the separation of various gases from mixtures is often necessary. In such procedures absorbent liquids are used to drive out undesirable components, either in con- tinuous or gradual phase contact installations. The same operational units are adequate for the separation of two or multiple component mixtures, using rectification procedures. The contact of liquid and gas (vapour) may be made very efficient using the so-called three phase fluid disperse systems the features of which will be discussed in the present paper.
