This book was released on 2019-01-02 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Slurry bubble column reactors are intensively used as a multiphase reactor in the chemical, biochemical, and petrochemical industries for carrying out reactions and mass transfer operations in which a gas, made up of one or several reactive components, comes into contact or reacts with a liquid. This volume describes the hydrodynamics of three-phase gas-liquid-solid flow in a downflow slurry bubble column. The efficiency of the downflow gas interacting system is characterized by the self-entrainment of secondary gas. The book covers the gas entrainment phenomena, gas holdup characteristics, pressure drop, gasliquid mixing characteristics, bubble size distribution, interfacial phenomena, and the mass transfer phenomena in the downflow slurry system. This volume will be useful in chemical and biochemical industries and in industrial research and development sectors, as well as in advanced education courses in this area. The book will be helpful for further understanding the multiphase behavior in gas interacting multiphase systems for research and development. The hydrodynamic and mass transfer characteristics discussed will be useful in the design and installation of the modified slurry bubble column in industry for specific applications.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bubble columns and slurry bubble columns are multiphase reactors used for a wide range of applications in the biochemical, chemical, petrochemical, and metallurgical industries. In spite of their widespread usage, the scale-up of bubble columns remains an ongoing challenge. Various scale-up approaches, based on concepts ranging from ideal mixing to complex 3-D multiphase CFD models, have been used for assessing the effect of column size and gas and liquid flow rates on column hydrodynamics and reactor performance. Among these approaches, phenomenological models based on either single-class or multi-class bubbles that were validated on cold flow systems have been successful in predicting the residence time distributions of gas and liquid in pilot-scale bubble columns (Chen et al., 2004) (Gupta, 2002). However, such models are not entirely predictive, since they are validated using columns having the same size as hot operating units. To provide better predictive capability, we need prior knowledge of local hold-up, transport coefficients, and bubble dynamics. This dissertation provides an improved understanding of the key design parameters (gas hold-up, volumetric mass transfer coefficients, gas-liquid interfacial area, and their spatial distribution) for predictive scale-up of bubble columns. In this work, a 4-point optical probe is used to estimate local gas hold-up and bubble dynamics (specific interfacial area, frequency, bubble velocity, and bubble chord-lengths) and their radial profiles in a cold-flow slurry bubble column and a bubble column photo-bioreactor. Along with local bubble dynamics, the effect of superficial gas velocity on volumetric mass transport coefficients in several sizes of bubble columns, with and without internals, and in slurry bubble columns and photo-bioreactors are studied. Key findings: In the bubbly flow regime, bubble dynamics in photo-bioreactors with suspended algae were dominated by the physicochemical properties of the liquid, as distinguished from the churn-turbulent flow regime in the slurry bubble columns, where bubble dynamics were mainly affected by turbulent intensities. In the bubbly-flow regime, volumetric mass transfer coefficients increased with an increase in superficial gas velocity. However, in the churn-turbulent flow regime, they approached a constant value with an increase in the superficial gas velocity. A new methodology was proposed to identify the flow regime from optical probe signals based on the support vector machine algorithm, which can uniquely classify flow regimes for various systems on a single flow regime map. A new model for the liquid phase mixing, that with a proper choice of the mass transfer coefficients enables a good match of the predicted and measured tracer response is described. This model provides a better prediction of volumetric mass transfer coefficients than the currently used well mixed model for the liquid phase (CSTR). The dissertation improves the fundamental understanding of the connection between bubble dynamics and mass transfer. Using the 4-point optical probe as a tool, it demonstrates a connection between bubble dynamics and volumetric mass transfer coefficients. Present work addresses the need of industries to have a method that can be used as an online process control tool to identify flow regime, this method has been tested at cold flow conditions and needs to be implemented at hot flow conditions. The parameters (radial distributions of gas hold-up, bubble velocities, and volumetric mass transfer coefficient) that are evaluated in the present work can be used to validate phenomenological models and CFD results at cold flow conditions, which can later be combined with process chemistry to accomplish scale-up (Chen et al., 2004). The open literature on multiphase reactors is mainly limited to cold flow condition, and techniques such as the optical probe need to be extended to hot flow conditions. The optical probe described here can withstand high temperature and pressure, but for hot flow conditions it requires a better binding agent to hold the probe tips together, one that will not dissolve in industrial solvents.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bubble columns are widely used as gas- iquid contactors and as reactors in chemical, petrochemical and biochemical industries. Effective mixing as well as high interfacial area between the phases, leading to improved heat and mass transfer characteristics, relatively cheap to install and the lack of moving parts, are the factors that render under bubble columns an attractive choice as reactors for the described processes. Gas-liquid flow in bubble column reactors is characterized by a combination of inherently unsteady complex processes with widely varying spatial and temporal scales. Understanding the complexity of the fluid dynamics and mass transfer in bubble column and is important due to its application in the chemical and bioprocess industries. The potential of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) for describing the hydrodynamics and heat and mass transfer of bubble columns has been established by several publications in the past. CFD predicts what happens quantitatively, when fluids flow, often with the complications of simultaneous flow of heat, mass transfer (eg perspiration, dissolution), phase change (eg melting, freezing, boiling), chemical reaction (eg combustion, rusting), mechanical movement (eg of pistons, fans, rudders), stresses in and displacement of immersed or surrounding solids. Thus CFD can successfully be used to study the gas-liquid mass transfer in bubble column reactor. In the present work an attempt has been made to understand the hydrodynamic behavior and gas-liquid mass transfer (transfer of oxygen from air to de-aerated water) of a concurrent gas(air)-liquid(water) up-flow bubble column by CFD analysis. The system used in the study is a cylindrical column of 10 cm ID and 1.88 m height. GAMBIT 2.3.16 has been used to generate a 2D coarse grid of 0.01m by 0.01m mesh size. The eulerian-eulerian approach has been used for modeling the multiphase flow and the oxygen mass transfer from air to de-aerated water and the column hydrodynamics. The.
Book Synopsis Hydrodynamics, Mixing, and Mass Transfer in Bubble Columns with Internals by : Mohamed Hamed

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bubble columns and slurry bubble columns are considered reactors of choice for a wide range of applications in the chemical, biochemical, and petrochemical industries. Most of the chemical applications of bubble columns include exothermic processes and hence they require some means of heat removal to maintain a steady process. The most practical means for heat removal in these reactors is the utilization of vertical cooling internals since they provide high heat transfer area per reactor volume. However, the effects of these internals on the reactor performance are poorly understood in the open literature. This causes the design of the internals to be based on empirical rules not on the applications of fundamentals. The main objective of this study is to enhance the understanding of the effects of vertical cooling internals on the gas hydrodynamics, gas mixing, and mass transfer. In addition, this study attempts to develop and validate models that can simulate the radial gas velocity profile and axial gas mixing in the presence and absence of internals. Finally, this work aims to validate all the observed experimental results and models in larger columns with and without internals to have a better understanding of the scale-up effects in the presence of internals. This is accomplished by carrying out experiments in a lab-scale 8-inch bubble column and a pilot-scale 18-inch bubble column in the absence and presence of internals. The studied % occluded area by internals (~ 25%) is chosen to match the % occluded area used in the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis. The radial gas velocity profiles are measured using the 4-point optical probe and are used to validate the 1-D gas velocity model developed by Gupta (2002). Gar tracer techniques are used to study the effect of internals on the overall axial gas mixing and mass transfer. A 2-D model, that considers the radial variations of the gas velocity and gas holdup, is developed and used to analyze the tracer data allowing the estimation of the turbulent diffusivities of the gas phase. The 2-D model along with the axial dispersion coefficient model developed by Degaleesan and Dudukovic (1998) are used to determine the contribution of different mixing mechanisms to the overall axial gas mixing. The effect of internals and column diameter on the gas velocity profile, gas mixing, and mass transfer is assessed. The presence of internals causes: The effect of internals and column diameter on the gas velocity profile, gas mixing, and mass transfer is assessed. The presence of internals causes: An increase in the center-line gas velocity. A significant decrease in axial gas mixing. A decrease in the gas-liquid mass transfer coefficient. The increase in column diameter causes: Enhancement of the gas circulation. An increase in axial gas mixing. The model developed by Gupta (2002) to predict radial gas velocity profiles is validated at different operating conditions in the presence and absence of internals. A 2-D convection-diffusion model is developed and proven useful in interpreting gas tracer data and simulating the overall axial gas mixing in the presence and absence of internals.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book summarises the outcom of a priority research programme: 'Analysis, Modelling and Computation of Multiphase Flows'. The results of 24 individual research projects are presented. The main objective of the research programme was to provide a better understanding of the physical basis for multiphase gas-liquid flows as they are found in numerous chemical and biochemical reactors. The research comprises steady and unsteady multiphase flows in three frequently found reactor configurations, namely bubble columns without interiors, airlift loop reactors, and aerated stirred vessels. For this purpose new and improved measurement techniques were developed. From the resulting knowledge and data, new and refined models for describing the underlying physical processes were developed, which were used for the establishment and improvement of analytic as well as numerical methods for predicting multiphase reactors. Thereby, the development, lay-out and scale-up of such processes should be possible on a more reliable basis.
