<p> A continuous bubble reactor was used to study the transfer of oxygen into solutions of acetaldehyde. The reaction was catalysed by cobaltous acetate. The parameters investigated included temperature, catalyst concentration, air flow rate and column height.</p> <p> A mathematical model based on Houghton's work (36) was used to describe the absorption rate in the bubble column. The equation derived was solved numerically. The Sherwood numbers predicted by the theory were compared with those obtained experimentally.</p> / Thesis / Master of Engineering (MEngr)
