Gas Hold-up Characteristics of an External Loop Airlift Contactor
Conventional airlift contactor (UT-ALC) was modified to improve its performance. The modified system (CDT-ALC) was tested for gas hold-up characteristics. Hydrodynamic environment depends on gas hold-up. New system reported 50 % higher gas hold-up. Linear relation between superficial gas velocity and fractional gas hold-up were developed from experimental data for both the reactors.
متن کاملTo Study Yeast Growth Kinetics in a Specially Designed External Loop Airlift Bioreactor
Two types of airlift fermenters, conventional (UT-ALF) and modified (CDT-ALF) were investigated to evaluate their performance with respect to baker’s yeast growth. The riser tube of conventional external loop airlift fermenter is replaced by a converging-diverging tube. The new reactor is called modified airlift reactor. The results were compared for the two types of airlift fermenter (UT-ALF a...
متن کاملNitrogen Compounds Removal in a Packed Bed External Loop Airlift Bioreactor
−A packed bed external loop airlift bioreactor (PBELAB) was proposed as an alternative treatment system for wastewater containing ammonia and nitrate compounds. The 60L PBELAB consisted of aeration and non-aeration zones, both of which were packed with plastic bioballs to enhance the surface area for the attachment of bacteria. The system was able to achieve complete removal of all nitrogen com...
متن کاملMixing in Bubble Column and Airlift Reactors
M ixing behavior of three geometrically equivalent 0.06 m bubble column and airlift photobioreactors was compared for use in microalgal culture. Mixing was characterized in terms of the axial dispersion coefficient, mixing time, circulation time and Bodenstein number. Measurements were reported in tap water and sea water, as used in growing microalgal biomass. Compared with the two airlift reac...
متن کاملInvestigation of Surfactant Effect on the Operational Characteristics of a Packed Bed Internal Loop Airlift Reactor
Investigation of turbulency on the rate of induced liquid circulation, gas hold-up, mixing time and overall gas–liquid volumetric oxygen mass transfer coefficient. The various types of surfactants (containing Brij58, TritonX-405, Tween40, HCTBr) with various concentrations of 1-5 ppm were examined on the operational characteristics of the reactor. In surfactant solutions (in comparison with pur...
