Abstract
An experimental study was conducted in this work to investigate the effect of different configurations on bubble cutting and process intensification in a micro-structured jet bubble column (MSJBC). Hydrodynamic parameters, including bubble size, flow field, liquid velocity, gas holdup as well as the interfacial area, were compared and researched for a MSJBC with and without mesh. The bubble dynamics and cutting images were recorded by a non-invasive optical measurement. An advanced particle image velocimetry technique (digital image analysis) was used to investigate the influence of different configurations on the surrounding flow field and liquid velocity. When there was a single mesh and two stages of mesh compared with no mesh, the experimental results showed that the bubble size decreased by 22.7% and 29.7%, the gas holdup increased by 5.7% and 9.7%, and the interfacial area increased by more than 34.8% and 43.5%, respectively. Significant changes in the flow field distribution caused by the intrusive effect of the mesh were observed, resulting in separate liquid circulation patterns near the wire mesh, which could alleviate the liquid back-mixing. The mass transfer experiment results on the chemical absorption of CO2 into NaOH enhanced by a mass transfer process show that the reaction time to equilibrium is greatly reduced in the presence of the mesh in the column.
