Abstract: | The oxidation of hydrazine in aqueous solution by atmospheric oxygen in presence of a homogeneous catalyst (copper tetrasulphophthalocyanine) is well suited for the determination of volumetric mass transfer coefficients. In contrast to other chemical methods the hydrazine oxidation permits to vary coalescence behaviour of the liquid phase by adding electrolytes or organic compounds, because without these solutes the reaction liquid does not inhibit bubble coalescence. With appropriate high molecular additives the hydrazine method can also be used for mass transfer measurements in liquids of high viscosity. Compared to the dynamic method the hydrazine method as a steady state method is far less influenced by systematic errors originating from the evaluation model. For this reason the application of the hydrazine method for testing semi-industrial and industrial gas-liquid contacting devices should be especially attractive. |
