Packed bed

edit

I am answering to your request on "Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Chemical and Bio Engineering" page. I think we need:

  • hystorical notes
  • more pictures of packing elements used on packed bed, and a classification of them, respect to geometry, materials of construction, and a good table representing their physical properties and applications in which each of them are preferred
  • a good description of wetting phenomenon, and data of wetting ratio for all types of packings and fluids
  • a good description of void fraction, and data of void fraction for all types of packings
  • to describe more precisely the equations to calculate pressure drop through packed bed, and demonstrate them
  • a table and pictures representing advantages and disadvantages of packed bed column respect to the other contact systems.
  • a good bibliografy and references
