Impeller stirred tanks (STR) are commonly used in the chemical processing industries (CPI) for a variety of mixing and blending technologies. In the present research, a numerical study of flow and mixing inside turbulently agitated tanks were carried out. An efficient solution algorithm was developed to solve turbulent flow inside stirred tanks where the boundary conditions for moving impeller ...

The objective of this work is to make use of methodologies and tools from nonlinear Lyapunov theory in the design of bounded control laws for the temperature stabilisation of Continuous Stirred Tank Reactors CSTRs with exothermic or endothermic reactions Simple output feed back control laws i e control laws that feed back only the available mea surements are designed It is shown that these cont...

polygalacturonase production under different shear stress environments by aspergillus sp. was studied. it was found that the rate of enzyme production in the stirred tank fermentor decreased with increasing the stirrer speed in the range 300-750 rpm. on the other hand, in a split cylinder air-lift fermentor, the rate of polygalacturonase production slightly increased with increasing in air rate...

in this work, mathematical modeling of microbial(trichosporon sp.) biomass production in a stirred tankbioreactor and in an external airlift bioreactor has beeninvestigated. a model based on a tanks-in-seriesmodel without back-flow has been used to simulate theproduction of single cell protein in the external airliftbioreactor under an unsteady condition and withoutoxygen limitation, utilizing ...

Limited by single function, it is difficult for the traditional stirred vessels to meet requirements of mixing system in biomass wastewater treatment processes. The estimation stirring reactor performance computational fluid dynamics (CFD) during multiphase reactions important, due uncertainty numerical results. In this study, a novel double-partition vessel with eccentrically located impellers...

The sailing tracks of single otter trawl vessels were simulated using cubic hermite spline (cHs) interpolation method based on the automatic identification system (AIS) data of 6 sampled vessels that were fishing in the Zhoushan fishing grounds after the close of the fishing season from September 2012 to January 2013.  The vessels’ status (i.e. whether the vessels were fishing or not...
