Effect of fractional gas hold-up εG on volumetric mass transfer coefficient KLa were studied for two different type of airlift contactors conventional and modified. KLa was directly proportional to gas hold-up within bubbly flow regime (UG < 0.075 m/s ) in conventional one but reverse trend ( inversely proportional) was reported in modified airlift contactor. Mathematical relation between KLa and gas hold-up were developed for both the reactors with the help of experimental data.
