Among the anaerobic systems applied for the treatment of paper industry effluents, the IC (Internal Circulation) reactor is gaining a lot of interest. The reactor combines good biomass retention at the outlet with excellent mixing characteristics in the lower part of the reactor. This leads to smaller reactor volumes and less space requirements. Three examples of IC reactors at various recycle ...

Water-cooled chiller systems have typically been designed around entering condenser water temperatures of 85°F with a Optimization of Water Cooled Chiller – Cooling Tower Combinations The warm water leaving the chilled water coils is pumped to the evaporator of the chiller, where the unwanted heat from the building is transferred by the latent heat of vaporization of the refrigerant. The compre...

The puri®cation of water by heterogeneous photocatalysis is one of the most rapidly growing areas of interest to both research workers and water puri®cation plants. Recent literature has demonstrated on a laboratory scale the potential of this promising technology to completely destroy organic pollutants dissolved or dispersed in water into harmless substances. However, to date no viable pilot ...

Modular high-temperature gas-cooled reactor (MHTGR) has distinct advantages in the sense of the inherent safety, economy property, high electricity efficiency, potential usage for hydrogen production, and etc. Chinese design of MHTGR, named as High Temperature Gas-Cooled Reactor-Pebble bed Module (HTR-PM), based on the technology and experiences of the HTR-10, is under the standard design phase...
