Hello Everyone. I am currently working on my final year project which is manufacturing of phenol from cumene. Cumene is first oxidized to cumene hydroperoxide and then cumene hydroperoxide is converted to phenol and acetone. I have performed mass and energy balances as of now.
I am stuck at design of cumene oxidizer. I am asked to model a bubble column for it. I have searched various sources but still couldn't find the stuff I am looking for. Can anyone help me with the design? Like, if anyone knows any particular book or have worked on such a problem in past, it would be very helpful to me as I am stuck and couldn't find much about it. Or maybe if someone can share some paper regarding this. If anyone can help with the kinetic data and modelling of bubble column, it would be a great help. If anyone wants more information, I would be happy to provide. Any help is highly appreciated and thanks in advance members.
