Airlift reactor

Airlift reactors are submerged reactors in which the energy input is achieved by applying gas. Compressed air is often used as the gas.

• determination of important characteristic variables at the airlift reactor
• transparent airlift reactor with external recirculation
• compressed air for generation of air bubbles to recirculate the reactor contents
• adjustment of the superficial gas velocity via a valve and mass flow controller
• nitrogen to remove the oxygen from the reactor content
• determination of the superficial liquid velocity via the conductivity
• determination of the mixing time with indicator and colour change method
• sensors for measuring the conductivity, oxygen content, pressure and flow rate
• software for data acquisition via USB under Windows 11
