Claims
- 1. A method of generating a plurality of effluents comprising simultaneously contacting a plurality of solids with a feed fluid to generate a plurality of effluents and simultaneously sampling and then processing the effluents.
- 2. The method of claim 1 wherein the processing comprises analyzing the effluents and determining changes in the effluents as compared to the feed fluid.
- 3. The method of claim 2 wherein the changes determined include changes in composition of the effluents as compared to the feed fluid.
- 4. The method of claim 1 wherein the processing comprises further treating the effluents.
- 5. The method of claim 1 wherein the sampling comprises flowing the effluents through a sampling system in order to trap a portion of the effluents in a plurality of effluent conduits and sequentially processing the effluents.
- 6. The method of claim 1 further comprising weighing each of the solids prior to contacting with the feed fluid.
- 7. The method of claim 1 further comprising passing a gaseous stream through a body of liquid to form the feed fluid prior to contacting with the solids.
