Mass transfer apparatus for a wide range of environmental processes

Abstract

Abstract The paper presents the construction of a continuous multifunctional mass transfer apparatus which can perfectly adjust to meet technological requirements for a wide range of environmental, chemical, petrochemical, biological processes. The processes include absorption, adsorption, desorption, chemisorption, ion exchange, rectification, drying, extraction, gas scrubbing. The apparatus can carry out processes under the influence of intensifying electric fields of a given intensity, as well as performance of the nonisothermal mass transfer processes and the gas and liquid phase exothermic and endothermic catalytic reactions. The article also provides the most promising modifications of the developed mass transfer apparatus and the main details relating to the durability and adjustment to meet the requirements of a particular mass transfer process. The authors emphasize the prospects of using modifications of the developed mass transfer apparatus as a foamy bubbling dust collector for industrial gas scrubbing and for performance of electro-absorption, electro-adsorption, electro-desorption, ion exchange under the influence of a given electric field intensity in the environmental equipment for industrial applications and urban economy.
