Abstract

Based on published data on the air bubble rise velocity in water and using methods of similarity theory and mathematical tools for calculating precipitation processes and surfacing of solid particles in a liquid, the structure of the bubble layer in a tower for production of oxidized asphalts was analyzed. A conclusion was drawn concerning the existence of an ascending gas ”liquid stream in the central part of the bubble towers and a descending liquid stream near the walls.
