Hydrodynamic characterization of a trickle bed air biofilter
This paper reports the effect of superficial liquid mass flow rate and bed void fraction on the pressure drop, dynamic liquid hold-up, mean liquid residence time and biofilm wetting, in a co-current down-flow xylene-removing trickle bed air biofilter (TBAB). The gas–liquid pressure drop increased with liquid mass flow rate and it also increased with diminishing bed void fraction, the effect bei...
متن کاملBiological treatment of mixtures of toluene and n-hexane vapours in a hollow fibre membrane bioreactor.
Membrane bioreactors are gaining interest for the control of contaminated air streams. In this study, the removal of toluene and n-hexane vapours in a hollow fibre membrane bioreactor (HFMB) was investigated. The focus was on quantifying the possible interactions occurring during the simultaneous biotreatment of the two volatile pollutants. Two lab-scale units fitted with microporous polypropyl...
متن کاملCFD Modelling of Trickle-Bed Reactors for Wastewater Treatment
This study aims to incorporate most recent multiphase models in order to investigate the hydrodynamic behaviour of a TBR in terms of pressure drop, liquid holdup and catalyst wetting efficiency. Taking into account transport phenomena such as mass and heat transfer, an Eulerian k-fluid model was developed resulting from the volume averaging of the continuity and momentum equations and solved fo...
متن کاملStyrene Biofiltration in a Trickle-Bed Reactor
The biological treatment of styrene waste gas in a trickle–bed filter (TBF) was investigated. The bioreactor consisted of a two-part glass cylinder (ID 150 mm) filled with 25 mm polypropylene Pall rings serving as packing material. The bed height was 1m. Although the laboratory temperature was maintained at 22 °C, the water temperature in the trickle–bed filter was slightly lower (about 18 °C)....
