چکیده

We describe the synthesis and characterisation of novel photocatalytic multiphase micro-droplet reactors comprising TiO2 nanosheets dispersed in poly(diallyldimethylammonium) chloride and adenosine 5'-triphosphate or poly(ethylene glycol) 4-nonylphenyl 3-sulfopropyl complex coacervates. We demonstrate significant variations in the degree of equilibrium partitioning of small molecule dyes into the coacervate droplet systems and exploit this behaviour to successfully conduct selective photocatalytic dye degradation.

DESIGN OF MICRO-CAPSUL GELATIN-ACACIA COACERVATION DISPERSED IN SEAWATER Komari

One of the prawn rearing method had been using artificial feed of gelatin-acacia microcapsule. Characteristics of this microcapsule is very small and its size can be predicted and its density is as same as sea water.This study aimed to measure size distribution of fish oil droplet and the gelatin-acacia membrane was calculated in order to get the same density of sea water. Results of this study...

Spontaneous assembly of chemically encoded two-dimensional coacervate droplet arrays by acoustic wave patterning

The spontaneous assembly of chemically encoded, molecularly crowded, water-rich micro-droplets into periodic defect-free two-dimensional arrays is achieved in aqueous media by a combination of an acoustic standing wave pressure field and in situ complex coacervation. Acoustically mediated coalescence of primary droplets generates single-droplet per node micro-arrays that exhibit variable surfac...

CFD Modeling of Gas-Liquid Hydrodynamics in a Stirred Tank Reactor

Multiphase impeller stirred tank reactors enhance mixing of reacting species used in a variety of chemical industries. These reactors have been studied based on Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) that can be used in the analysis, design and scale up of these reactors. Most of the researches done in this area are limited to single phase reactors, and a few remaining two phase flow investigat...

CFD Simulation of Porosity and Particle Diameter Influence on Wall-to-Bed Heat Transfer in Trickle Bed Reactors

Wall-to-bed (or wall-to-fluid) heat transfer issues in trickle bed reactors (TBR) has an important impact on operation and efficiency in this category of reactors. In this study, the hydrodynamic and thermal behavior of trickle bed reactors was simulated by means of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) technique. The multiphase behavior of trickle bed reactor was studied by the implementation of ...
