Modeling of solid-particle effects on bubble breakage and coalescence in slurry bubble columns

Integration of Particle to Bubble Adhesion Model in Design and Scale-Up of Slurry Bubble Columns

In slurry bubble column reactors, catalyst particles may adhere to gas bubbles. Thus, mass transfer limited reactions can be significantly improved either by increasing G-L mass transfer coefficient kL or specific surface area a. The scope of this work is to study the influence of model parameters on coalescence and G-L mass transfer, in order to develop new rules for design and scale-up of slu...

Area I. Multiphase Reactors and Processes: Experimental and Modeling Bubble and Slurry Bubble Columns

Interactional effects of bubble size, particle size, and collector dosage on bubble loading in column flotation

The success of flotation operation depends upon the thriving interactions of chemical and physical variables. In this work, the effects of particle size, bubble size, and collector dosage on the bubble loading in a continuous flotation column were investigated. In other words, this work was mainly concerned with the evaluation of the true flotation response to the changes in the operating varia...

Biodegradation Modeling of Nitrophenolic Pollutant in a Slurry Bubble Reactor

Biodegradation kinetics of 4-nitrophenol (PNP) in aqueous solution by a gram negative soil bacterium, Ralstoniaeutropha was firstly studied in a small scale batch reactor. The degradation of PNP was evaluated at initial PNP concentrations ranging from 3 mg/L to 14 mg/L. The rate of PNP consumption by the bacterium culture was modeled using Monod and Contois kinetics in batch condition. PNP degr...
