Effective Hydrogen Gas Dispersion and Mass Transfer

The efficiency of hydrogenation reactions depends on how effectively hydrogen gas is dispersed within the liquid phase. Mechanimix GDM gas dispersion impellers break hydrogen gas into fine bubbles, maximizing the gas-liquid contact area and increasing reaction rates.
