In this case, k DF D%: , the exponent on DAB is 0.5, this is lower than the

Under similar conditions (i.e flow rates and geometry, contact time) mass
transfer of 2 solutes will be proportional to D%:
An approach to obtain better match of the theory to practical situation, a
combination of film and penetration theories can be obtained so as to allow n to
range between 0.5 to 1.0.
Part II-4
Penetration theory works the best for low mass transfer rates (i.e, short contact
time, the heterogeneity in contact time kicks in and causes significant deviation
between the theory and practice
One assumption was that there is no velocity gradient in the fluid element, good
for gas-fluid interface, where the viscosity of element is far greater, and drag
forces does not cause a velocity gradient.
Another assumption was concentration in fluid element is c%@

Example 7.3-2
Pure water at 26.1C (=996kg/m3, =8.7110-4Pas) is flowing at a velocity of 0.0305 m/s in
a tube having an inside diameter of 6.35 mm. The tube is 1.829 m long, with the last 1.22 m
having the walls coated with benzoic acid. The solubility of benzoic acid in water is 0.02948
kgmol/m3. The diffusivity of benzoic acid in water is 1.24510-9 m2/s. Assuming that the
velocity profile is fully developed, calculate the average concentration of benzoic acid at the
outlet.

Our discussion so far was centered on mass transport in one phase, i.e. an
interfacial or boundary concentration that leads to transport in that phase
Part II-22
Real-world applications are mass transfer between 2 phases (e.g. gas and liquid).
Examples include distillation, absorption processes.
Two phases are typically in contact with each other. Surface area or area through
which mass transfer occurs is ill defined. Each phase exhibits a concentration gradient
(transport) and, at the interface of 2 phase equilibrium exists.
Consider the equilibrium reached for SO2 between air and water (Appendix A.3 contains
information for other systems)
Imagine transfer of A (solute) from one of the phases (e.g gas) to the other (e.g liquid).
There is usually a discontinuity in the concentration of A at the interface. We will
assume that there is no resistance to mass transfer at the interface and that the
transport barrier (resistances) reside in the fluid phase itself
xAi and yAi are dictated by
the equilibrium
relationship
yAi = f(xAi), e.g Henrys Law
Note: Bulk concentrations
Are not the driving force!!
Bulk concentrations
cannot predict the nature
of the mass transfer!
Lets look at a gas absorption case: NH3 transferring from the air to water
Part II-23
Equilibrium Relationship
Assuming phases are stationary,
Mass transfer in gas phase:
N% = k s (y% y%7 )
Mass transfer in liquid phase:
N% = k Q (%7 x%4 )

liquid flowing downward. At a certain point in the tower, the bulk gas concentration of A is
