Abstract
Mass transfer from single grain to fluid moving through assemblage of immobile, identical inert spheres was studied. It is shown that the ef fective mass transfer rate is strongly dependent on the local bed stru cture around the irregularly shaped particles. Blending active grains with smaller inert spheres results in an enhancement of the effective transport rate. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd.
