A new method for determining activity coefficients at infinite dilution from dew point and/or bubble point data in binary systems is proposed.
The extrapolated values of dew point and bubble point parameters, respectively, defined as D≡ a

2) and B≡ (1 - b

1b
2, agree thermodynamically with the activity coefficients at infinite dilution. The values of ''a'' and ''b'', respectively, can be calculated by a≡ γ× = (π/P)y from dew point data and by b≡ (y/γ) = (P/π)× from bubble point data, where x, y, P, π and γ, respectively, express mole fraction in liquid phase, that in vapor phase, vapor pressure, total pressure and activity coefficient.

An estimation method for critical properties that is easily available for both organic and inorganic compounds with considerable accuracy is proposed. In this method critical temperature, critical pressure and critical volume can be estimated solely from data of the normal boiling point and the liquid density of pure substance by means of succesive approximations that are repeated until calculated critical pressure (P
c) converges.
The average errors of T
c, P
c and V
c for about 24O substances studied were 1.39, 2.61 and 2.OA percent, respectively, but the errors for nitrogen compounds, bromide compounds, metallic elements, and compounds associated in the vapor phase were sometimes larger.

On the basis of a pore model, a difference in average pore radius under reactive and non-reactive diffusion conditions is discussed. This model suggests a difference in intraparticle effective diffusivity value (pore volume diffusivity with no surface diffusion contribution) between these two systems. Experimental pore tortuosity measurements are also reported for commercial catalyst pellets.

Solubilities of carbon dioxide and ethylene in water and a number of aqueous salt solutions are measured at about I atm. and 25°C by the gas volumetric method. A experimental results are correlated by the modified empirical Setschenow equation. The salting-out parameters which consist of three components ascribed to gas, cation and anion in aqueous salt solution, are estimated from the results of this experiment as well as from those listed in International Critical Tables and Landolt-Börnstein Tables. With these calculated salting-out parameters, the solubilities of gas in aqueous salt solutions are predicted accurately within the standard deviation 0.052. Nine more species of gas, sixe more species of cation and five more species of anion than the data by van Krevelen and Hoftijzer include are taken into account.

The motion of a solid particle which was allowed to drift in a liquid phase was pursued by a camera to find the following:
(1) There is no remarkable irregularity of liquid flow in the bubble column.
(2) The distribution function of axial displacements of a solid particle was discribed by the normal distribution function. The assumed dispersion model coincided well with the experimental results. From this fact the mechanism of the mixing of liquid element was considered to be analogous to that of diffusion. The dispersion coefficient was also determined experimentally.
(3) The dynamic behaviour of bubbles, especially the coalescence of bubbles, has the controlling effect on the gas holdup and the dispersion coefficient.

The drag force acting against a spherical float was investigated to define the complex flow of gas-liquid mixture in a bubble bed, and was converted to the average intensity of bulk flow, v
z. The values of v
z were found to be quite uniform over the central half cross-section of the bed and its directions were upward.
Over the outer annular cross-section, the values of v
z were equal to those in the central section although their directions were downward.
Effects of various factors were further investigated, and a method for the calculation of v
z was also established.

An experimental and theoretical study has been made on turbulent flows in the entrance region of a circular tube. Direct measurement of shear stress at the tube wall was made by an electrochemical method, and velocity profiles at various cross sections were measured by a total pressure tube. From plotting these results in universal coordinates, it is found that there exists a similarity in the velocity distributions in the turbulent boundary layer in the entrance region, and that they are represented by the power law equation. The coefficient and exponent of this equation are functions of the Reynolds number based on inlet velocity only.
Based on the assumption of this similarity, the momentum equation for a circular tube is solved. Analytical solution agrees fairly well with the experimental results on turbulent boundary layer developments.

The analytical solution of the problem involving a change of phase with convection at the surface is very difficult. Previously, heat conduction problems with a change of phase (called Neumann''s problem) have been solved. The concept may be used to obtain analytical solutions for a semi-infinite solid and an infinite cylinder in the freezing of foods.
This paper presents an analytical Stefan-type solution for a cylinder with convection at the surface and experimental results of the temperature distribution, fusion front moving and the time required to freeze a cylinder in the freezing of cylindrical food stuff.

An equation of the heat transfer coefficient was proposed by considering a simple model. For high velocity of solid particles, experimental results, especially the effect of particle size, were found to be easily explained by the equation.

The equations of diffusion and heat transfer for moving boundary problems in spherical particles were computed in order to test the applicability of the pseudo-steady state approximation, which is usually believed to be valid for the case of gas diffusion. This approximation, however, may sometimes induce considerable errors for the case of heat transfer.
In this study, figures are presented to test such applicability in the literature data and further to correct the experimental data under those conditions.

The preferential transport of a certain ionic species to others through an ion exchange membrane has been investigated. It was found from some experimental data that the preferential ion transport, S
BA, should be closely related to an operating parameter ξ, where S
K+NA+ for example, is defined as the ratio of the Sherwood number concerning the transfer rate of K
+ to that of Na
+, and E is defined as (∧Δφ/
2FDV). The Stanton number St=(l/F)/C
10V defined as the ratio of the total ionic flux in the direction to the membrane to that in the direction of the bulk flow, was also a function of ξ. These factors, ∧, Δφ, F, D, V, I, and C
10 are the equivalent conductivity, the effective applied voltage to a single desalting compartment, the Faraday constant, the channel thickness, the linear flow velocity, the current density and the total equivalent concentration, respectively.
Under the operating condition of ξ> IO
-3, no ion exchange membrane will serve to transport a certain ion preferentially. If ξ∧1O
-4, however, the membrane will fully reveal its own ability for selecting a certain ionic species, because the concentration ratio of two ionic species at the membrane surface will approach that in the equilibrium state.

Absorption of carbcn dioxide into aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide was studied in a packed column under conditions such that the accompanying reaction was of the second order. In this case the average or volumetric reaction factor for the packed column, i.e. the ratio of the volumetric coefficients for absorption with and without chemical reaction, is complicated by the non-uniform contact-time distribution. However, the assumption of Porter''s "long, slow flow paths" model for the contact-time distribution led to a successful correlation for the average reaction factor.

Hydrogenation of ethylene on a single spherical catalyst in a tubular reactor was carried out at ambient temperature of 35-75°C and with volumetric velocity of reactive gases of 10-40cm3 (18°C I atm)/sec. The conversion at the outlet and the temperatures at the center and at various azimuthal angular positions to the stream on the outer surface of the catalyst were measured.
The method of Bischoff to evaluate effectiveness factor for catalyst particle with non-uniform surface temperature was extended to include transport effects of fluid film, applying the method presented previously by the present authors. Numerical values of the effectiveness factor obtained by various methods are compared and discussed.

Liquid phase oxidation of cumene in the absence of solvent was carried out in a bubble column in temperature range from 100°C to 130°C. The reaction scheme in the batch-wise operation was classified in terms of three periods: the induction, the steady chain-propagation and the termination periods. The kinetics in the steady chain-propagation period, which is industrially important, was studied and the rate expressions of chemical steps were derived.

The effect of bubble size on the selectivity of consecutive gas-liquid reaction is studied by means of the chlorination of p-cresol. The reactors used are a bubble column and a stirred vessel with various types of gas distributors. It is found that under the conditions studied stirring speed has no effect on the yield of the intermediate product, and that "
large bubbles" gives higher yield, while "
small bubbles" give lower yield. The experimental results are satisfactorily explained by relating the liquid-phase mass transfer coefficient to bubble size and relating the yield of the intermediate product to the liquid-phase mass transfer coefficient.

The mechanism of suspension of particles in horizontal pneumatic conveying was studied by experimental and numerical analyses. It was found from experiment that the particles flowing in the duct were rotating at high speeds such as 1, 000 r. p. s. or more. A model based on the ellipsoid approximation of the particle shape was constructed and was applied to account for the irregular bouncing phenomena of nonspherical particles. Moreover, the real pneumatic transport process was simulated satisfactorily by introducing a random factor into the ellipsoid model.

A basic differential equation for expression of pasty mixture of finite thickness, consisting of fine solid particles and liquid, is solved by method of moments.
By this method, expression coefficient E(e), a function of void ratio e, is determined only from data of expressed liquid volume V
epd vs. time Θ in the earlier half period of the expression and the ultimate liquid content e
min. Time dependence of liquid content distribution in the mixture e (CV, Θ) is calculated using the E(e), and the relation of V
epd vs. Θ is calculated by integration of the e(CV, Θ).
Pasty mixture of TiO
2-water was used for this study, and a fairly good coincidence between the observed relation of V
epd vs. Θ and the calculated one was confirmed.

Internal mechanisms of settling sediments are mathematically analysed on the basis of consolidetion theory and the basic differential equations for settling of concentrated suspensions are presented.
The basic equations are solved numerically in view of variable consolidation coefficients C
1. The analytical solutions of the variations of hydraulic excess pressure distribution and porosity distributions in settling sediments and of the settling curves compare very favorably with settling data experimentally obtained by using thick suspensions of zinc oxide and ferric oxide. It is emphasized that the basic equations should be solved numerically on the basis of variation in C
1 and it may be enormously in error if a constant C
1 is assumed.
In addition, the so-called comprssion-permeability characteristics in the low compressive pressure region can be well determined analytically by using batch settling data.

To afford mathematical tools for expression operations under variable pressure-variable rate and constant rate conditions, expression processes are analysed in view of the flow through compressible porous media.
From the previous paper
17), it is evident that the expression mechanism of slurry consists of two flow phenomena. These types of phenomena during the variable-pressure expression process may be analysed by consideration of the flow mechanisms throug hcompressibe porous beds, first by the filtration theory and second by the so-called consolidation theory. It has been demonstrated that the operational variables for variable-pressure expression operations are well predicted from calculations based upon compression permeability cell data. For both the original mixtures of slurry and saturated semi-solid, a favorable coincidence between theories and experiments are assured under constant rate and variable pressure-variable rate conditions.

The effectiveness factor and the selectivity are calculated for a consecutive reaction where the kinetics follow the Langmuir-Hinshelwood types of rate equations. The computational results are extended to cases where the first order specific catalytic activity varies inside a catalyst pellet and it is shown that the selectivity is greatly changeable by the difference in the distribution of the rate constant inside the catalyst even in the case where the overall reaction rate of the reactant has the same value.
