Notes:
Measurements of local hold-up and liquid recirculation rate in an air-lift reactor were performed with two types of gas spargers using a manometric technique. A simple exponential function correlated properly the liquid velocity measured to the gas flow rate. The local hold-up varied appreciably along the column and showed a maximum in most of the cases. A simple linear relationship correlated the local gas velocity with the total flow rate of the mixture.
