In this study, a power correlation for prediction of the mass transfer coefficient has been suggested
for each regions of Forced-Circulation-Internal-Airlift-Loop Reactor (FCIALR). Based on
experimental data, the parameters of power correlation versus superficial gas velocity were
determined for five regions, with high degree of confidence. The mass transfer coefficient
increases with increasing the superficial gas velocity in all regions of the reactor. The feed affected
region has the greatest mass transfer coefficient and, contributing more than other region of
FCIALR.
