Abstract We determined the effect of different mixing intensities on performance, methanogenic population dynamics, and juxtaposition syntrophic microbes in anaerobic digesters treating cow manure from a dairy farm. Computer automated radioactive particle tracking conjunction with computational fluid dynamics was performed to quantify shear levels locally. Four continuously stirred were operated at 1,500, 500, 250, 50 revolutions per min (RPM) over 260‐day period temperature 34 ± 1°C. Animal...
Upgrading heavy oil is a subject of high importance for fossil fuel industry due to the rapid depletion light reservoirs and consequent increased demand upgrading oil. In this review, advancement made in proposed sustainable emerging technologies dedicated processing have been discussed comprehensive informative manner with consideration encountered associated properties including its significant content undesirable large molecular weight hydrocarbons, viscosity, elevated impurity level. The...
Extrudates of Al−Fe pillared clay catalyst suitable for packed-bed operations are evaluated wastewater treatment via a wet oxidation process employing hydrogen peroxide as the oxidant. The reaction was carried out in semibatch basket reactor under rather mild conditions. Operational parameters were studied following conditions: temperature from 25 to 90 °C, atmospheric pressure, initial phenol concentration 100 2000 ppm liquid phase, loading 0 10 g/L, and input H2O2 0.15 0.6 mol/L. Under...
Three-dimensional steady-state computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations were performed in mimic anaerobic digesters to visualize their flow pattern and obtain hydrodynamic parameters. The mixing the digester was provided by sparging gas at three different rates. phase simulated with air liquid water. CFD results first evaluated using experimental data obtained computer automated radioactive particle tracking (CARPT). simulation terms of overall pattern, location circulation cells...
Abstract Mixing in photobioreactors is known to enhance biomass productivity considerably, and flow dynamics play a significant role the reactor's performance, as they determine mixing cells' movement. In this work we focus on analyzing effects of photobioreactor performance. Based hydrodynamic findings from CARPT(Computer Automated Radioactive Particle Tracking) technique, possible mechanism for interaction between physiology photosynthesis presented, light availability intensity...
