The design of industrial crystallization processes usually employs laboratory-scale experimental data which must be correlated with the full-scale process for effective technology transfer. In this context, measured growth rates single crystals ibuprofen in stagnant ethanolic solutions are compared recorded a population crystallized an agitated 7-mL reactor. crystal found to rather close those ...

The chemicals used for the NPs synthesis are TetraEthylOrthoSilicate (TEOS), l-Arginine, chloride acid 0.1M and ethanol. They were supplied by Aldrich and used as received. High-purity deionized water (18.2 M.cm) was produced using Millipore Milli-Q Gradient system. The synthesis follows the same protocol as in our previous work [1]. It is performed in a 2000 ml reactor thermostated with hot wa...

In this work the Computational Fluid Dynamics simulation of a stirred bioreactor purposely designed for the production of hydrogen from organic wastes fermentation is presented. The bioreactor is a vortex-ingesting, dual impeller, mechanically-agitated vessel equipped with a central draft tube. Due to the geometrical and physical complexity, the selected reactor offers a very challenging benchm...

BACKGROUND Dry dilute acid pretreatment at extremely high solids loading of lignocellulose materials demonstrated promising advantages of no waste water generation, less sugar loss, and low steam consumption while maintaining high hydrolysis yield. However, the routine pretreatment reactor without mixing apparatus was found not suitable for dry pretreatment operation because of poor mixing and ...
