When a system contains two or more components whose
concentrations vary from point to point, there is natural
tendency for mass to be transferred, minimizing the
concentration differences within the system.

Electrolytic precipitation due to an electrostatic force field
Magnetic separation of mineral mixtures by magnetic force
Component separation in a liquid mixtures by centrifugal force
Knudsen diffusion
If the density of the gas is low, or if the pores through which the gas
traveling are quite small
the molecules will collide with the wall more frequently than each other
(wall collision effect increases)
the molecules are momentarily absorbed and than given off in the
random directions
gas flux is reduced by the wall collisions

Gas Absorption with Chemical Reaction
in an Agitated Tank
effect of chemical reaction rate on the
rate of gas absorption in an agitated
tank
Example) The absorption of SO2 or
H2S in aqueous NaOH solutions
Semiquantative understanding can
be obtained by the analysis of a
relatively simple model
Gas A in
Surface area
of the bubble
is S
Volume of liquid
phase is V
Liquid B
Gas Absorption with
Chemical Reaction
in an Agitated Tank-1
Assumptions:
1) Each gas bubble is surrounded by a stagnant liquid film of thickness d, which is
small relative to the bubble diameter
2) A Quasi-steady state concentration profile quickly established in the liquid film
after the bubble is formed
3) The gas A is only sparingly soluble gas in the liquid, so that we can neglect the
convection term.
4) The liquid outside the stagnant film is at a concentration CAd, which changes so
slowly with respect to time that it can be considered constant.

the bulk of the solution almost solute

If the mass-transport resistance of the gas phase has little effect,and it is said that the mass transfer is liquid-phase controlled. In practice, this means that the system design should favor liquid-phase mass transfer.
If then the mass transfer is gas-phase controlled. In a practicalsituation, this means that the system design should favor gas-phase mass transfer.
If , roughly, one must be careful to consider the interactionsof the two phases in calculating the two-phase transfer coefficients.
