Metabolic modeling of synthesis gas fermentation in bubble column reactors
BACKGROUND A promising route to renewable liquid fuels and chemicals is the fermentation of synthesis gas (syngas) streams to synthesize desired products such as ethanol and 2,3-butanediol. While commercial development of syngas fermentation technology is underway, an unmet need is the development of integrated metabolic and transport models for industrially relevant syngas bubble column reacto...
متن کاملModeling of the Fischer–Tropsch synthesis in slurry bubble column reactors
A multicomponent one-dimensional dynamic mathematical model for the reacting slurry systems with a change in gas flow rate due to the chemical reaction is developed. A change in gas flow rate caused by the chemical reaction is modeled using the overall gas mass balance. Thus, all relevant chemical species are included in the model. Linear first-order reaction kinetics is considered. The gas pha...
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 کاملApplication of New Inflection Point Method for Hydrodynamics Study in Slurry Bubble Column Reactors
Bubble column reactors are used in a wide variety of applications such as multiphase bioreactors, catalytic slurry reactors, and absorption processes. The superficial gas velocity-gas holdup relationship and transition point are two important parameters for characterizing the hydrodynamics of a bubble column reactor. In this study, systematic investigation of a nitrogen - water - glass bead...
متن کاملMass Transfer Studies in Shallow Bubble Column Reactors
Mass transfer studies are carried out in a bubble column with an internal diameter of 14 cm and various static liquid heights. The mass transfer coefficient is evaluated by using an oxygen sorption method. A model considering the gas holdup flushing and the sensor response is used. The interfacial mass transfer area is determined according to the measured bubble size distribution. The liquid-si...
