Mixing 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 کاملCommercial scale slurry bubble column reactor optimization
An in-depth numerical study has been carried out to investigate a high-pressure commercial scale (2–8 meter diameter) slurry bubble column reactor (SBCR). Typical superficial gas velocities are in the range of 0.5–3 m/s, and overall vapor hold-ups are in the range of 0.45–0.85. The study revealed that steady compartmental reaction models do not match plant data when reaction time constants are ...
متن کاملMathematical Simulation of Bubble Column Slurry Reactor for Direct Dimethyl Ether Synthesis Process from Syngas
Based on a global kinetics of direct dimethyl ether (DME) synthesis process from syngas, a steady-state one-dimensional mathematical model for the bubble column slurry reactor (BCSR) has been established. It was built on the assumption of plug flow of gas phase, sedimentation-dispersion model of catalyst grains and isothermal chamber regardless of reaction heats and rates for the design of an i...
متن کاملSimulation of a bubble column reactor using CFD approach. Application: ferrous biooxidation
Extended abstract Understanding the complexity of the fluid dynamics in bubble column and airlift reactors is important due to their application in the chemical and bioprocess industries. So the objective of this research was to develop a fundamental understanding of the hydrodynamics and interactions with the chemistries involved in the bubble column reactor to maximize overall efficiency for ...
متن کاملGrowth characteristics of Chlorella sorokiniana in airlift and bubble column photobioreactors.
The present study investigated the feasibility of bioCO(2) sequestration using Chlorella sorokiniana. It was found that 5% CO(2) (v/v) in air was the most suitable concentration for the growth of this organism. At this concentration, the maximum rate of CO(2) sequestered and the biomass obtained were found to be 1.21 g L(-1)d(-1) and 4.4 g L(-1) respectively. Modeling and simulation of the grow...
