Microchannels have great potential in intensification of gas-liquid-liquid reactions involving reacting gases, such as hydrogenation. This work uses CO2-octane-water system to model the hydrodynamics and mass transfer of such systems in a microchannel with double T-junctions. Segmented flows are generated with three inlet sequences and the size laws of dispersed phases are obtained. Three generation mechanisms of dispersed gas bubbles/water droplets are identified: squeezing by the oil phase, cutting by the droplet/bubble, cutting by the water-oil/gas-oil interface. Based on the gas dissolution rate, the mass transfer coefficients are calculated. It is found that water droplet can significantly enhance the transfer of CO2 into the oil phase initially. When bubble-droplet cluster are formed downstream the microchannel, droplet will retard the mass transfer. Other characteristics such as phase hold-up, bubble velocity and bubble dissolution rate are also discussed. The information is beneficial for microreactor design when applying three-phase reactions.
