How to calculate mass transfer coefficient and axial dispersion coefficient.

when only following parameters are known

1.Bed height

2.Flow rate

3. Inlet adsorbate conecntration

4. External mass transfer coefficient ?

Dear Renu Bisht,

Your question is easily to solve. i recommend for you the following books titles:

1) Raffinage et génie chimique. Wuitier. (Frensh language)

2) Coulson & Richardson’s CHEMICAL ENGINEERING VOLUME 6 , Fourth edition

Chemical Engineering Design, R. K. Sinnott. (Enlish).

Best wishes!

kind regards!
