Abstract
A review of the metallurgical and chemical literature involving foams and emulsions is presented. Experimental techniques for the measurement of drop sizes in such systems are reviewed, and the basic mechanisms of drop breakup and coalescence are discussed, along with an analysis of the pertinent mass-transfer processes. A detailed discussion on a number of industrial processes using foams and emulsions is also presented.
