AQ3 The utilization of continuous-flow biochemical reactors, including biocatalysis, biotransformation, and biochemical interaction based flow-analytical systems, and enzyme reactors are recently the focus of attention to produce fine biochemicals and also show great potential in bioanalytical applications. Continuous-flow biochemical processes implemented in microstructured reactors enable sho...

Three activated sludge reactors of different sizes and designs, one in pilot-plant-scale of 7,000 gallon liquid volume, and two in benchscales of 7.5 gallon and 1.2 gallon liquid volumes, respectively, were used to evaluate the scale-up effects on the process at outdoor temperatures. The reactors were operated under equivalent conditions by regulating the mean cell residence time, mean hydrauli...

in this paper, startup performance of upflow anaerobic hybrid reactor and upflow anaerobic sludge blanket reactors in anaerobic treatment of distillery spentwash has been studied under identical conditions of operation. various effluent characteristics like ph, electrical conductivity, chemical oxygen demand, biochemical oxygen demand and total solids and other process parameters like biogas pr...

The anaerobic treatability of malt whisky distillery wastewater was investigated. Biochemical methane potential (BMP) experiments were conducted both with and without basal medium (BM) to observe the effect of nutrient supplementation. For batch reactors containing no nutrients but only NaHCO3, net total gas production at the end of 29 days were observed as 0.019 m 3 gas/kg COD removed. With nu...

we evaluated the efficacy of a full-scale combined biophysicochemical system for treatingmolasses-based bioethanol wastewater in terms of organic substances, nutrient, and dark brown color removal. the main organic removal unit, i.e., the upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (uasb) reactor, achieved 80.7% removal and 4.3 nm3 methane production per cubic meter of wastewater with a hydraulic retention...

Biochemical reactors are essential unit operations in a wide variety of biotechnological processes. As compared to conventional chemical reactors, bioreactors present unique modeling and control challenges due to the complexity of the underlying biochemical reactions and the heterogenous nature of cell populations. The dynamic behavior of bioreactors can be strongly affected by variations betwe...
