چکیده مقاله:

Rigorous analysis of the determinants of volumetric mass transfer coefficient (kLa) and its accurate forecasting are of vital importance for effectively designing and operating stirred reactors. Majority of the available literature is limited to systems with low solids concentration, while there has always been a need to investigate the gas-liquid hydrodynamics in tanks handling high solid loadings. Several models have been proposed for predicting kLa values, but the application of neuro-fuzzy logic for modelingkLa based on combined operational and geometrical conditions is still unexplored. In this paper, an ANFIS (adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system) model was designed to map three operational parameters (agitation speed (RPS), solid concentration, superficial gas velocity (cm/s)) and one geometrical parameter (number of curved blades) as input data, to kLa as output data. Excellent performance of ANFIS’s model in predicting kLa values was demonstrated by various performance indicators with a correlation coefficient of 0.9941.

Gas-liquid mass transfer coefficient in stirred tanks interpreted through bubble contamination kinetics

Experimental data on the average mass transfer liquid film coefficient (kL) in an aerated stirred tank are presented. Liquid media used were tap water, electrolyte solutions and water with controlled addition of tensioactive material. Values of kL range from those expected for bubbles with a mobile surface to those expected for rigid bubbles. These data are quantitatively interpreted in terms o...
