The research on mass transfer coefficients in solid-liquid agitated systems has received substantial attention in the past, due both to the interest in fundamental aspects of mass transfer between particles and turbulent fluids and to the importance of practical applications. In contrast, little information is available on solid-liquid mass transfer when a third gaseous phase is also dispersed into the system, in spite of the importance of the applications of gas-solid-liquid agitated systems. In this work a suitable dissolution technique was used to measure the solid-liquid mass transfer coefficient in gas-solid-liquid vessels stirred by either radial or axial impellers. The mechanical power dissipated by the stirrers at various agitation speeds and gas flow rates was also measured by means of a new technique. The mass transfer data obtained were found to be well correlated to the 0.25 power of the specific power dissipation, indicating that the Kolmogorov＇s theory of mass transfer applies to these systems, while no clear influence of the gas hold-up was ascertained.
