Book Bioreactor Modeling

Download or read book Bioreactor Modeling written by Jerome Morchain and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2017-10-06 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dynamic simulation of bioreactors is a challenge for both the industrial and academic worlds. Beyond the large number of physical and biological phenomena to be considered and the wide range of scales involved, the central difficulty lies in the need to account for the dynamic behavior of suspended microorganisms. In the case of chemical reactors, knowledge of the thermodynamic equilibrium laws at the interfaces makes it possible to produce macroscopic models by integrating local laws. Microorganisms, on the other hand, have the ability to modulate the rate of substrate assimilation. Moreover, the nature of the biochemical transformations results from a compromise between the needs of the cell and the available resources. This book revisits the modeling of bioreactors using a multi-scale approach. It addresses issues related to mixing, phase-to-phase transfers and the adaptation of microorganisms to variations in concentration, and explores the use of population balances for the simulation of bioreactors. By adopting a multidisciplinary perspective that draws on process engineering, fluid mechanics and microbiology, this book sheds new light on the particularity of bioprocesses in relation to physical and chemical phenomena. - Presents a multiphase description of bioreactor modeling - Includes a combination of concepts issued from different scientific fields to address a practical issue - Provides a detailed description of the population balance concept as applied to biological systems - Covers a set of illustrative examples of the interaction between hydrodynamics and biological response

Book Hydrodynamic Characterization of Heterogeneities in Aerated Stirred Tank Reactors  From an Eulerian to a Lagrangian Perspective

Download or read book Hydrodynamic Characterization of Heterogeneities in Aerated Stirred Tank Reactors From an Eulerian to a Lagrangian Perspective written by Jürgen Fitschen and published by Berichte aus dem Institut für Mehrphasenströmungen 10. This book was released on 2022-10-12 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aerated stirred tank reactors are commonly used for chemical, biological and pharmaceutical processes with the highest requirements for constant and efficient mass transport and mixing performance. These reactors are known for their simple design and a very extensive description of their operating behavior in the relevant literature. The purpose of this work is to identify heterogeneities and coherent structures in aerated stirred tank reactors and to describe what the influences of these structures have on the mass transport and mixing processes. For this purpose, both the global and local mixing time distributions and, for the first time, the dispersion coefficients are determined with high local resolution.

Book Hydrodynamics and Mass Transfer in Downflow Slurry Bubble Columns

Download or read book Hydrodynamics and Mass Transfer in Downflow Slurry Bubble Columns written by Subrata Kumar Majumder and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-01-02 with total page 168 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.

Book Current Developments in Biotechnology and Bioengineering

Download or read book Current Developments in Biotechnology and Bioengineering written by Christian Larroche and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2016-09-17 with total page 852 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Current Developments in Biotechnology and Bioengineering: Bioprocesses, Bioreactors and Controls provides extensive coverage of new developments, state-of-the-art technologies, and potential future trends, reviewing industrial biotechnology and bioengineering practices that facilitate and enhance the transition of processes from lab to plant scale, which is becoming increasingly important as such transitions continue to grow in frequency. Focusing on industrial bioprocesses, bioreactors for bioprocesses, and controls for bioprocesses, this title reviews industrial practice to identify bottlenecks and propose solutions, highlighting that the optimal control of a bioprocess involves not only maximization of product yield, but also taking into account parameters such as quality assurance and environmental aspects. - Describes industrial bioprocesses based on the reaction media - Lists the type of bioreactors used for a specific bioprocess/application - Outlines the principles of control systems in various bioprocesses

Book Desalination and Water Treatment

Download or read book Desalination and Water Treatment written by Murat Eyvaz and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2018-09-19 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The need for fresh water is increasing with the rapid growth of the world's population. In countries and regions with available water resources, it is necessary to ensure the health and safety of the water supply. However, in countries and regions with limited freshwater resources, priority is given to water supply plans and projects, among which the desalination strategy stands out. In the desalination process, membrane and thermal processes are used to obtain fresh water from salty water that is in abundant amounts in the sea. This book will outline valuable scientific contributions to the new desalination and water treatment technologies to obtain high quality water with low negative environmental impacts and cost. The editors would like to record their sincere thanks to the authors for their contributions.
