title: A New Technique for Measuring Gas-Liquid Mass Transfer
description: Engineers in the UK and China have developed a new method, Electrical Capacitance Tomography (ECT), for measurement of industrial scale gas-liquid mass transfer. It’s simpler than traditional techniques that provide measurements of real-time liquid distribution and local liquid hold-up.
