Mixing and mass transfer in a pilot scale U-loop bioreactor.
A system capable of handling a large volumetric gas fraction while providing a high gas to liquid mass transfer is a necessity if the metanotrophic bacterium Methylococcus capsulatus is to be used in single cell protein (SCP) production. In this study, mixing time and mass transfer coefficients were determined in a 0.15 m3 forced flow U-loop fermenter of a novel construction. The effect on the ...
متن کاملsimulation and experimental studies for prediction mineral scale formation in oil field during mixing of injection and formation water
abstract: mineral scaling in oil and gas production equipment is one of the most important problem that occurs while water injection and it has been recognized to be a major operational problem. the incompatibility between injected and formation waters may result in inorganic scale precipitation in the equipment and reservoir and then reduction of oil production rate and water injection rate. ...
Mixing Studies in Loop Bioreactors for Production of Biomass from Natural Gas
The mixing behavior of the gas-liquid phase in three loop bioreactors was investigated. A gas-induced External Airlift Loop Bioreactor (EALB), a forced-liquid Vertical Tubular Loop Bioreactor (VTLB) and a forced-liquid Horizontal Tubular Loop Bioreactor (HTLB) were used for mixing studies as well as biomass production from natural gas. The effect of design parameters, riser to downcomer cro...
متن کاملMass Balance on Water and Dry Solids from Pilot-scale Landfill Bioreactor Studies
Pilot-scale experiments simulating bio-active landfilling conditions were conducted to evaluate the effects of operating conditions on the kinetics and overall quantities of methane production from anaerobic digestion of real municipal solid waste. Several modalities of leachate injection and pretreatment operations of the waste were studied using six Landfill Simulation Reactors, which were in...
متن کاملFlow Analysis Heat and Mass Transfer in a Room
This reports the study on the flow behaviour, heat transfer and contamination distribution in a room. For this purpose the 3-D incompressible Navier-Stokes equations, energy equation and a mass transfer equation which model the concentration of contamination have been applied. For turbulence simulation the two equation standard k- turbulence model was employed. By means of SIMPLE algorithm the...
