Measurements of gas–liquid and liquid–solid mass transfer coefficients were performed in two types of three-phase laboratory reactor equipped with stationary catalytic basket and multiple impeller. Those reactors are called Robinson–Mahoney reactors. Local liquid–solid mass transfer coefficients wer...
