DEVELOPMENT OF A PELLET SCALE MODEL FOR TRICKLE BED REACTOR USING CFD TECHNIQUES
In this study, a pellet scale model was developed for trickle bed reactor utilizing CFD techniques. Drag coefficients were calculated numerically at different velocities and bulk porosities in the case of single phase flow through the dry bed. The simulation results were then compared with the prediction of Kozeny-Carman (K-C) equation. The results indicated that drag coefficients calculated fr...
متن کاملCFD of Multiphase Flow in High pressure Trickle Bed Reactors: Porous Media Concept
A two-phase Eulerian model, based on porous media concept, describing the flow domain as porous region is presented to estimate the hydrodynamics of two-phase flow in trickle-bed reactors (TBRs) operating at high pressures. The drag forces between phases have been accounted by employing the relative permeability concept (Sàez and Carbonell, 1985). The model has been validated with the different...
متن کاملHigh-Pressure Trickle-Bed Reactors: A Review
A concise review of relevant experimental observations and modeling of high-pressure tricklebed reactors, based on recent studies, is presented. The following topics are considered: flow regime transitions, pressure drop, liquid holdup, gas-liquid interfacial area and mass-transfer coefficient, catalyst wetting efficiency, catalyst dilution with inert fines, and evaluation of tricklebed models ...
متن کاملStyrene Biofiltration in a Trickle-Bed Reactor
The biological treatment of styrene waste gas in a trickle–bed filter (TBF) was investigated. The bioreactor consisted of a two-part glass cylinder (ID 150 mm) filled with 25 mm polypropylene Pall rings serving as packing material. The bed height was 1m. Although the laboratory temperature was maintained at 22 °C, the water temperature in the trickle–bed filter was slightly lower (about 18 °C)....
متن کاملCFD Modelling of Trickle-Bed Reactors for Wastewater Treatment
This study aims to incorporate most recent multiphase models in order to investigate the hydrodynamic behaviour of a TBR in terms of pressure drop, liquid holdup and catalyst wetting efficiency. Taking into account transport phenomena such as mass and heat transfer, an Eulerian k-fluid model was developed resulting from the volume averaging of the continuity and momentum equations and solved fo...
