In a mixing tube, the high velocity jet attaches itself to the mixing tube wall, resulting in a rapid dissipation of kinetic energy, which creates an intensive mixing with the production of a fine dispersion of gas bubbles. The two-phase mixture that \u201cjets\u201d into the reaction autoclave here also causes intensive mixing. The ejector of VLR in many cases can be considered as a device for the complete saturation of the liquid with gas. This occurs because of a high kLa value, and the concentration variation for the reactions is insignificant due to a short contact time. The holding vessel can be considered as a well-stirred reactor with a very high kLa value. Taking into account that the Hatta number of ethoxylation reactions is &lt;1, a Venturi loop reactor can be simulated by considering it as a well-stirred isotherm reactor.<\/p>\n<p><b><a href=\"https:\/\/nicl.it\/new\/alkoxilation-processes-reactors\/\">Reactors<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n<p><b><a href=\"https:\/\/nicl.it\/new\/alkoxilation-processes-comparison-of-reactors\/\">Comparison of Reactors<\/a> <\/b><\/p>\n<p><b><a href=\"https:\/\/nicl.it\/new\/alkoxilation-processes-stlr-model-1\/\">STLR Model<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-324\" src=\"https:\/\/nicl.it\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/ETOSSI5_IMG.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"465\" height=\"409\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nicl.it\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/ETOSSI5_IMG.jpg 465w, https:\/\/nicl.it\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/ETOSSI5_IMG-150x132.jpg 150w, https:\/\/nicl.it\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/ETOSSI5_IMG-250x220.jpg 250w, https:\/\/nicl.it\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/ETOSSI5_IMG-300x264.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 465px) 100vw, 465px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In the case of dodecanol ethoxylaion, for example, To prevent a significant mass-transfer limitation, values of kLa &gt; 0.1-0.2 s-1 are needed.
