Multiphase Reactors Reactions between gas-liquid, liquid-liquid, and gas-liquid-solid phases are often tested in CSTRs. Other laboratory types are suggested by the commercial units depicted in appropriate sketches in Sec. 19 and in Fig. 7-17 [Charpentier, Mass Transfer Rates in Gas-Liquid Absorbers and Reactors, in Drew et al. (eds.), Advances in Chemical Engineering, vol. 11, Academic Press, 1981]. Liquids can be reacted with gases of low solubilities in stirred vessels, with the liquid charged first and the gas fed continuously at the rate of reaction or dissolution. Some of these reactors are designed to have known interfacial areas. Most equipment for gas absorption without reaction is adaptable to absorption with reaction. The many types of equipment for liquid-liquid extraction also are adaptable to reactions of immiscible liquid phases. 

The reaction engineering (see Section 8.2.1) is advanced insofar that many alternative process concepts [lie, 15d] were tested during the development phase however, only a few were pursued further in the concept stage up to the pilot plant reactor. There remained the principle of the biphasic Ruhrchemie/Rhone-Poulenc oxo process which was developed in long-term tests and protected by a matched patent strategy, as described in Section 6.1.3.
