Abstract

A cocurrent flow of pure gaseous $SO_2$ and liquid $H_2O$ was used to fluidize particulate $Zn$ in order to produce industrial concentrations of $ZnS_2O_4$. Based on transport phenomena and reaction kinetics, measured concentration profiles of both absorbed $SO_2$ and reacted $Zn$, as well as mean solid holdups, were best predicted by a combined bubble-wake and axially dispersed plug-flow model.
