在水和废水处理的几个常见应用中，酸碱反应与气体转移反应同时发生。开发了一种简单的方法来定量说明酸碱反应对气体传输速率的影响，并通过与实验室数据的比较进行了检查，并将其应用于实际的饮用水问题情况。给出了各种气液接触反应器的计算公式。在适用的情况下，气体吸附或汽提速率受pH值的显著影响。间歇反应器和连续反应器中二氧化碳汽提的实验室结果- 流动逆流填料塔与理论值进行了比较。该理论被应用于一个全尺寸操作系统，在该系统中，硫化氢从地下水饮用水供应中被去除；二氧化碳的同时剥离和硫化物的氧化被考虑在内。建议降低进水pH值，以改善硫化氢的汽提。包括18个参考文献、图表。

Acid-base reactions occur simultaneously with gas transfer reactions in several common applications in water and wastewater treatment. A simple methodology to account quantitatively for the effects of the acid-base reactions on the gas transfer rate was developed, checked by comparison with laboratory data, and applied to an actual drinking water problem situation. Equations for application to a variety of gasliquid contacting reactors are given. The rate of gas adsorption or stripping was shown to be drastically influenced by pH in applicable cases. Laboratory results for stripping of carbon dioxide in batch reactors and continuous-flow countercurrent packed towers compared excellently with the theory. The theory was applied to a full-scale operating system in which hydrogen sulfide is stripped from a groundwater drinking water supply; simultaneous stripping of carbon dioxide and oxidation of the sulfide were accounted for. Reduction of the influent pH was recommended to improve the stripping of the hydrogen sulfide. Includes 18 references, figures.
