Abstract
A diffusion type of model is proposed for modeling of the scale effect in column apparatuses. The mass transfer with chemical reaction model is investigated. The influence of the radial non-uniformity of the velocity distribution on the mass transfer efficiency, column height and scale-up is obtained. The effect of Fourier and Damkohler numbers on the process efficiency is analyzed. The present data show that mass transfer efficiency in column apparatuses decreases with the column diameter increase.
