چکیده
This paper presents application of CFD techniques for simulation of wastewater treatment using membrane technology. Finite element method (FEM) was used as numerical solver. A comprehensive model is developed to predict the system. The model considers equations of momentum and mass transfers. The influence of process parameters on the system efficiency was evaluated. The results showed that concentration boundary layer (CBL) is formed near the membrane surface. The modeling predictions also confirmed that the developed model is capable to evaluate the effective parameters which involve in the ammonia removal by means of membranes.

It is several decades that the application of membrane processes for gas separation has become a great concern within industries. Among them, the polymeric membranes of different structures have played the most important role. Such application has been widely extended to gas separation and due to the necessity of both; prediction of the behavior of these processes and recognition of the effecti...
متن کاملA molecular dynamics simulation of water transport through C and SiC nanotubes: Application for desalination
In this work the conduction of ion-water solution through two discrete bundles of armchair carbon and silicon carbide nanotubes, as useful membranes for water desalination, is studied. In order that studies on different types of nanotubes be comparable, the chiral vectors of C and Si-C nanotubes are selected as (7,7) and (5,5), respectively, so that a similar volume of fluid is investigated ...

Nanopore silicalite type membranes were prepared on the outer surface of a porous-mullite tube by in situ liquid phase hydrothermal synthesis. The hydrothermal crystallization was carried out under an autogenously pressure, at a static condition and temperature of 180 °C with tetrapropylammonium bromide (TPABr) as a template agent. The molar composition of the starting gel of silicalite zeolite...

In this study, a pellet scale model was developed for trickle bed reactor utilizing CFD techniques. Drag coefficients were calculated numerically at different velocities and bulk porosities in the case of single phase flow through the dry bed. The simulation results were then compared with the prediction of Kozeny-Carman (K-C) equation. The results indicated that drag coefficients calculated fr...
