- Abstract
A problem exists in the design of a heterogeneous (gas-liquid) tank flow reactor. An experimental programme is used to illustrate a design procedure which involves a modified space velocity factor. The example used is the chlorination of toluene, and relevant analytical and kinetic data are given.
