A method is described for the utilization of Ar-40 as radiotracer for
oxygen in a standard Rushton air-water contactor at steady state condi
tions without oxygen depletion. The compartmental analysis method is a
pplied to appraise the mass transfer kinetics of the system. Results d
emonstrate the suitability of Ar-41 as a radiotracer for oxygen and th
at the system can be described as an open, three-compartmental model.
