Question:

Gaseous ethylene (C2H4) is to be dispersed in water in a turbine-agitated vessel at 110°C and an absolute pressure of 3 atm. The vessel is 3 m in diameter with a maximum liquid depth of 3 m. For a flow rate of 800 m3/h of ethylene, measured at process conditions, specify

(a) The diameter and speed of the turbine impeller

(b) The power drawn by the agitator.

(c) What would be the gas flow rate at incipient flooding under these conditions?
