[Wu, Y; Cheng, Z. M.; Huang, Z. B. Backmixing reduction of a bubble column by interruption of the global liquid circulation. Ind. Eng. Chem. Res. 2009, 48, 6558― 6563] have shown that the backmixing could be substantially reduced by interrupting the global liquid circulation using four identical short Venturi throats (SVTs). Considering the advantages of such structures, it is necessary to further investigate the backmixing characteristics of a bubble column with SVTs. In the present work, a multipoint tracer injection and detection device was employed to enhance the insight into where and how the liquid tracer was backmixed in different stages of a 50-cm diameter column. Tracer response profiles were measured to track the liquid backmixing trajectory in different stages at various operating conditions. The results showed that the backmixing of the column was sensitive to the throat diameter of SVTs. Based on the observed physical phenomena, a tanks-in-series with backflow (TISB) model was adopted to interpret the tracer experiment data, which shows an excellent agreement between the prediction and experimental measurements.

Backmixing reduction of a bubble column by interruption of the global liquid circulation / Yang Wu in Industrial & engineering chemistry research, Vol. 48 N° 14 (Juillet 2009) 

Public ISBD [article]  in Industrial & engineering chemistry research > Vol. 48 N° 14 (Juillet 2009) . - pp. 6558–6563 Titre : Backmixing reduction of a bubble column by interruption of the global liquid circulation Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Yang Wu, Auteur ; Zhen-Min Cheng, Auteur ; Zi-Bin Huang, Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : pp. 6558–6563 Note générale : Chemical engineering Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Backmixing  reduction  Bubble  column  Lliquid  circulation  route Résumé : The strong backmixing of the liquid phase which is prevalent in a bubble column should be ascribed to its global circulation which is upward in the central region while downward near the wall on the reactor scale. To suppress the backmixing behavior, interruption of the liquid circulation route should be effective. To verify this presumption, an investigation was conducted with a bubble column 550 cm in height and 50 cm in diameter, which was equipped with four channels of the same size installed at different heights so as to cut the downward motion of the liquid and therefore prevent the global circulation the liquid. It shows that although the radial velocity distribution of the liquid remains parabolic in the short column constituted by two neighbor channels, the velocity profile tends to be flat in the upward direction as the channel is approached. The residence time distribution analysis shows that the backmixing of liquid could be reduced by 60% when four channels 12 cm in diameter were applied.

Determination of liquid multiscale circulation structure in a bubble column by tracing the liquid flowing trajectory / Zi-Bin Huang in Industrial & engineering chemistry research, Vol. 50 N° 21 (Novembre 2011) 

Public ISBD [article]  in Industrial & engineering chemistry research > Vol. 50 N° 21 (Novembre 2011) . - pp. 11843-11852 Titre : Determination of liquid multiscale circulation structure in a bubble column by tracing the liquid flowing trajectory Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Zi-Bin Huang, Auteur ; Zhen-Min Cheng, Auteur Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : pp. 11843-11852 Note générale : Chimie industrielle Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Bubble  column Résumé : To identify the liquid circulation flow structure in a bubble column, a set of multipoint tracer injection and detection device was developed for a systematic study in a bubble column of 550 cm in height and 50 cm in diameter. Tracer response profiles were measured to track the liquid flowing trajectory under various flow conditions in the column with and without draft tubes. They showed that only when the draft tube length was greater than 3 m could the tracer response exhibit obvious periodicity. To resolve the liquid circulation flow structure in the time and frequency domain, wavelet multiresolution analysis was adopted. The results showed that the liquid circulation frequency increased with superficial gas velocity, which is in agreement with the published literature. It was also found that the macroscale, mesoscale, and microscale circulation loops coexisted in the bubble column.
