Performance of a tubular electrochemical reactor, operated with different inlets, to remove Cr(VI) from wastewater

In the present work, the performance of a tubular electrochemical reactor operated with three different inlets (central, lateral and tangential) was evaluated. Fluid flow simulations through the electrochemical reactor were performed using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The steady state fluid flow was simulated to visualize the velocity field behavior along the reactor for each different inlet. The type of vailable online 6 June 2009
