Described is an enclosed space, a column, or a reactor including a device
for mixing and distribution of at least one gaseous phase and at least
one liquid phase. The device can be placed upstream of a reaction zone or
of a gas/liquid contact zone that can contain a packing bed or a bed of
solid, possibly catalytic, particles. Also described is a process for
implementing such an enclosed space, column or reactor and to a process
for fabricating such an enclosed space, column or reactor.
