The influence of mass transfer on a countercurrent liquid‐liquid fluidized system

I. J. Dunn, Leon Lapidus, J. C. Elgin

Abstract

Abstract The present work is concerned with an experimental study of the influence of mass transfer on the holdup of countercurrent liquid‐liquid fluidized systems and the effect of solute on droplet coalescence. Of particular importance in the results obtained is the dramatic demonstration that mass transfer greatly influences the holdup when solute is being extracted from the discontinuous phase loading to strong coalescence.
