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 ...

The present work investigates an appropriate way to calculate the 1700 atomic density changes in the reactor operations. To automate this procedure, a computer program has been designed by C#. This program suggests a way to solve this problem which is based on the solution system of differential equations (Bitman) that it is designed according to Runge-Kutta Fehlberg method. The designed softwa...

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 ...

abstract the goal of this research is simulating an optimum reactor to eliminate greenhouse gases, mainly co2, through combined cycle in stacks of power plant, using a strong base (sodium hydroxide) thinned by water. during this process sodium bicarbonate salt is generated together with water and the produced salty water is desalinated and its useful salts are also extracted. four scenarios hav...

Irradiation-induced hardening is an important phenomenon concerning the nuclear reactor safety, because it induces the embrittlement of reactor pressure vessel steels. This phenomenon, however, can also be applied for the modification of hardness of alloys. In the case of FeCu alloys, we have reported that GeV heavy-ion irradiation remarkably increases the hardness [1]. Volkov et al. have expla...

supercritical water oxidation has attracted attention of many researchers ever since the ideahas emerged about three decades ago as a promising technique in the waste managementindustry. providing more details about the behavior of a supercritical water oxidation systemunder various operating conditions and extending available data can greatly assist more accurateand reliable design of such sys...

Probabilistic safety assessment (PSA) which plays a crucial role in risk evaluation is a quantitative approach intended to demonstrate how a nuclear reactor meets the safety margins as part of the licensing process. Despite PSA merits, some shortcomings associated with the final results exist. Conventional PSA uses crisp values to represent the failure probabilities of basic events. This causes...

The main objective developed in this paper is to find a graphic technique for modeling, simulation and diagnosis of the industrial systems. This importance is much apparent when it is about a complex system such as the nuclear reactor with pressurized water of several form with various several non-linearity and time scales. In this case the analytical approach is heavy and does not give a fast ...

This study investigated the performance and stability of an anaerobic baffled filter reactor in the treatment of algae-laden water from Taihu Lake at several organic loading rates. The study also evaluated the capability of soft filler to train granule sludge and improve the anaerobic environment and sludge activity in the anaerobic baffled reactor (ABR), thereby enhancing the treatment efficie...
