Abstract: Experiments have been done on mass transfer to a liquid-liquid interface on which inert gas bubbles are sparged.To simulate the pyrometallurgy system of melten slag-metal(or matte),aqueous solution-mercury(or zinc amalgam) system was used.The mass transfer coefficients of indicator ions as a function of bubble parameters have been determined.The experimental results show satisfactory agreement with the mass transfer model proposed Previously.

Key words: mass transfer, gas bubble, liquid-liquid interface
