Notes:
The effect of recycling on mass transfer, characterized by the volumetric mass transfer coefficient kLa, was investigated by absorbing CO2 into water in a laboratory jet loop reactor. Based on a mathematical model, which includes the correlation function kLa = kLa(rL), a first order chemical reaction and the variation of interfacial area, a = a(εG), caused by strong absorption effects, the interaction ‘recycling - mass transfer - reaction’ was simulated and its influence on the reactor performance is discussed.
