Abstract
The local bubble behavior such as holdup, bubble frequency, bubble size and rising velocity in a bubble column of CMC solution was measured using the eleclroresislivity probe technique, and the effects of gas velocity and CMC concentration on the behavior were investigated. Also, the total gas holdup was measured from the liquid level in the column, and its relation with gas velocity and CMC concentration was studied. Two correlations of mean bubble size and total gas holdup with dimensionless groups, composed of gas velocity and physical properties of gas and liquid, were obtained from the experimental results.
