Gas bubbles rise in a liquid. What looks like a bottle of sparkling mineral water actually is a type of reactor frequently used in industry – a bubble column. These reactors are found in laboratories and large technology towers at almost any chemical plant. New compounds, created at the bubble's boundary layers, are the raw materials for numerous objects of our everyday life. Developing ways to control these processes and to optimize them is therefore of large interest. In the framework of the
