在直径为0．476m的椭圆底圆柱形搅拌槽内,以水／航空煤油及水／环己烷为实验体系,研究了Rushton涡轮式搅拌桨(RT-6)、六半椭圆管涡轮式搅拌桨(HEDT)、折叶轴流式搅拌桨及翼形轴流式搅拌桨(CBY)的6种不同组合桨的液-液分散特性,用取样法测定了分散相体积分数的轴向分布及体系澄清时间。结果表明,组合桨中的底桨在液-液分散中发挥了主要作用。单位体积输入功率相同时,底桨为CBY的组合桨进行液-液分散后,液滴的平均滴径最小,体系澄清时间较长;底桨为HEDT的组合桨的分散效果次之;底桨为RT-6的组合桨因滴径分布较宽,虽然平均滴径最大,但澄清时间也较长。     

伴有瞬时化学反应微溶固体颗粒的气液传质

为研究瞬时化学反应性固体颗粒对气液传质过程的影响,对伴有瞬时反应性固体颗粒/水浆料体系吸收气体过程进行了理论分析。考虑了固体颗粒在气液界面附近的溶解,以及固体颗粒尺寸对传质的影响,将cell模型融入溶质渗透理论,建立了气液二相间传质模型,并对模型进行了解析求解,得到了液相传质系数的解析表达式。结果显示:固含率、固体颗粒尺寸和溶解度对气液传质过程具有重要影响,液相传质系数随固含率和固体颗粒在液相中饱和浓度的增加而增大,随固体颗粒粒径增大而减小。在搅拌式反应器中利用Mg(OH)2/水浆料吸收SO2气体,对传质模型进行了实验验证。模型计算结果与实验值吻合良好。     

上浮颗粒特性对三相搅拌槽内固-液悬浮及气-液分散的影响

在直径为0.476m(T)的椭圆底有机玻璃搅拌槽中,采用作者此前研究优选的多层组合桨(HEDT WHD WHU),分别选用粒径在0.5至4mm、密度范围在900至955kg(m(3的聚丙烯(PP)颗粒及粉料、低密度聚乙烯(LDPE)颗粒、高密度聚乙烯(HDPE)颗粒作为上浮固体,操作液位为1.5～1.8T,研究了颗粒特性及操作液位对空气-水-上浮固体三相体系的固-液悬浮及气-液分散性能的影响.结果表明:对于同种颗粒,其表面状态对悬浮特性有较大的影响,颗粒表面因含有少量残余溶剂而呈现部分憎水特性时,达到液面处颗粒停留时间不大于1～2秒的临界悬浮状态所需搅拌转速及输入功率显著增加;此时减少上层桨与液面的距离对降低临界悬浮转速及功率有较大贡献.当颗粒种类不同,表面状态及粒径相近时,液固密度差越大,所需悬浮转速越高;但相同输入功率及表观气速时的气含率相差不大.液固密度差相近时,颗粒越小越易被悬浮,但颗粒越小浓度增加使三相体系的气含率降低的幅度越大.对于不同颗粒所得气含率关联式及悬浮特性研究结果可为工业气液固搅拌槽/反应器的优化设计提供参考.

气-液-液萃取传质效率的研究

在液-液萃取过程中,提高分散相的表面更新速率可有效提高萃取的传质效率.研究发现,在萃取过程中使用气体搅拌可以增加液液之间的接触面积,促进液相内的湍动和循环.据此,本文在气-液-液萃取条件下对不同填料的传质性能进行了测定.实验表明,通入气相后分散相液滴呈现稳定的“油包气”空心状态,这种结构大大降低了分散相液滴的传质层厚度,减小了传质距离,极大地强化传质效率.在适宜气速下,气-液-液萃取效率较传统萃取效率提高20％～40％.通过与散装填料对比,发现规整填料更利于强化萃取效果,传质效率提高约50％.

Intensification of mass transfer in liquid fluidized beds with inert particles

The influence of inert particles on liquid/solid mass transfer is studied in fluidized beds by using a binary-mixture of solids of differing size and density. The addition of inert particles of higher density and smaller diameter, e.g. glass beads, exerts remarkable effects on mass transfer coefficients in comparison to that of mono-component active particles at the same liquid velocity. The extent of the effect on liquid–solid mass transfer coefficients increases with an increasing fraction of the small inert particles in the mixture. The liquid–solid mass transfer coefficients for binary-mixtures are well correlated in terms of dimensionless groups and the voidage parameter.     

Liquid-Solid mass transfer in a slurry bubble column and a gas-liquid-solid three-phase fluidized bed

Mass transfer coefficients between particles and liquids in a slurry bubble column and a three-phase fluidized bed containing small size particles were obtained with two mass transfer systems: (1) K⁺ –Na⁺ ion-exchange in cation-exchange resin bead beds, including anion-exchange resin beads as inert particles; (2) zinc dissolution by HCl in zinc-plated glass bead beds, and in beds of non-plated glass beads. Operating parameters were gas velocity, liquid velocity, particle diameter, and particle concentration. The dependence of mass transfer coefficients on these parameters is discussed from the viewpoint of the energy supplied into the systems. Correlations of the experimental data using dimensionless groups are compared to previous correlations.     

PHASE HOLDUPS AND LIQUID-LIQUID EXTRACTION IN THREE PHASE FLUIDIZED BEDS

Effects of the continuous phase velocity (0.01-0.08 m/s(, the dispersed phase velocity (0.0-0.04 m/s) and particle size (1.0-3.0 mm) on the individual phase holdups and the mass transfer coefficient have been determined in two (liquid-liquid) and three (liquid-liquid-solid) phase fluidized beds.

In the beds, the dispersed phase holdup increased with dispersed phase velocity but it decreased with continuous phase velocity. Whereas the continuous phase holdup decreased with dispersed phase velocity but it increased with continuous phase velocity. The bed porosity increased with both the dispersed and continuous phase velocities in the beds of 1.7 and 3.0 mm particles. In addition, the continuous phase holdup decreased with the presence of solid particles in the bed, however, the dispersed phase holdup was not affected by the presence of the particles.

The overall mass transfer coefficients in the continuous and dispersed phases increased with increasing fluid velocities but it decreased with the bed height.

The continuous phase holdup and mass transfer coefficient data have been correlated with the operating variables and the dimensionless groups.     

Axial dispersion characteristics of three (liquid-liquid-solid) phase fluidized beds

The effects of the continuous and dispersed phase velocity and particle size on the axial dispersion of the continuous phase have been determined in two (liquid-liquid) and three (liquid-liquid-solid) phase fluidized beds. In a cocurrent liquid-liquid flow system, the axial dispersion coefficient increases with both the dispersed and continuous phase velocities. In three phase fluidized beds, the coefficient increases with dispersed phase velocity but it decreases with the particle size. Also the coefficient exhibits a maximum value with an increase in the continuous phase velocity at the lower dispersed phase velocities, but it increases with the continuous phase velocity at higher dispersed phase velocities. The axial dispersion coefficients in terms of Peclet number have been correlated in terms of the ratio of fluid velocities and the ratio of the particle size to column diameter, based on the isotropic turbulence theory.

Mass transfer in a countercurrent spray column at supercritical conditions

Mass transfer characteristics were determined for countercurrent extraction in a spray column with supercritical carbon dioxide solvent. Feeds were 5 and 10 vol% aqueous ethanol and iso-propanol at 25–65°C and 6.89–15.51 MPa. Results obtained in a 22 mm inside diameter column showed enhanced extraction efficiencies over comparable liquid-liquid systems. The models based on conventional liquid-liquid extraction were modified to correlate overall mass transfer coefficients for supercritical conditions. The constant value in the model of measuring individual mass transfer coefficient was influenced by the density of carbon dioxide and the system used.     

微通道内液-液两相流流型及传质的研究进展

微通道内液-液两相流流动在微化工系统中占有重要的地位,了解微通道内液-液两相流体流动和传质规律对推动其工业化应用有重要作用。本文以微通道内液-液两相流系统为研究对象,简述了不同工况下微通道内液-液两相流流型和混合传质效率,分析了微通道特征、流体性质和流体流动速度等对流型形成和传质效率的影响。指出目前对于微通道内液-液两相流的研究多处于定性研究,定量研究仅针对某一体系展开,所得结果具有一定的局限性。关于微通道内液-液两相流传质研究实验较多而数值模拟方法相对较少,接下来的研究工作中应该考虑建立微通道内液-液两相流基础研究的数据库,通过分析大量的数据获得有效的流型划分准则和相关经验式以此推动微通道内液-液两相流的工业化应用。同时在传质研究过程中应研究开发相应的数值模拟模型,保证实验和数值模拟相结合,提出有效的传质效率评价机制。     

Prediction of mass transfer coefficients in an asymmetric rotating disk contactor using effective diffusivity

Mass transfer characteristics have been investigated in a 113 mm diameter asymmetric rotating disk contactor of the pilot plant scale for two different liquid–liquid systems. The effects of operating parameters including rotor speed and continuous and dispersed phase velocities on the volumetric overall mass transfer coefficients are investigated. The results show that the mass transfer performance is strongly dependent on agitation rate and interfacial tension, but only slightly dependent on phase flow rates. In this study, effective diffusivity is used instead of molecular diffusivity in the Gr?ber equation for estimation of dispersed phase overall mass transfer coefficient.The enhancement factor is determined experimentally and there from an empirical expression is derived for prediction of the enhancement factor as a function of Reynolds number. The predicted results compared to the experimental data show that the proposed correlation can efficiently predict the overall mass transfer coefficients in asymmetric rotating disk contactors.     

INFLUENCE OF MIXING INTENSITY ON THE MASS TRANSFER COEFFICIENT ACROSS LIQUID-LIQUID INTERFACES

The influence of mixing intensity on the liquid-liquid mass transfer have been investigated using a binary system (water/n-butanol) in a modified stirred cell type contactor which overcomes the shortcomings associated with the previous contactors. It is observed that the mass transfer coefficient is affected by the degree of mixing intensity in both phases. The dependence of the aqueous and organic mass transfer coefficients on the mixing rate is about the same when both phases are agitated at the same speed and these coefficients become asymptotic values for the coefficients obtained at non identical agitation rate in both phases.
