Removal of Refractory Organics by Aeration. III. A Fast Algorithm for Modeling Solvent Sublation Columns

Abstract
A fast algorithm is developed for modeling the operation of batch and continuous flow solvent sublation columns. Mass transfer kinetics and axial dispersion are taken into account, and a Langmuir isotherm is used. Results are presented illustrating the effect on column performance of influent flow rate, axial dispersion, and bubble radius.
