Book excerpt: Fluidization refers to a process by which a fluid like state is imparted to granular solid particles by the passing of a fluid upwards through the bed of particles. A semi fluidized bed is characterized by a fluidized bed and a packed bed in a series within a single contacting vessel. Gas-liquid-solid semi fluidization is defined as an operation in which a bed of solid particles is suspended in gas and/or liquid upward flowing media due to the net gravitational force on the particles and the motion of the particles is restricted by a top restraint. Such an operation generates intimate contact between the gas, liquid and solid particles in these systems and provides substantial advantages for applications in physical, Chemical and biochemical processing involving gas, liquid and solid phases. The experiments were conducted using liquid as the continuous phase and gas as the discontinuous phase. In this work air, water and dolomite (2.31mm, and 1.7mm) are used as the gas, liquid and solid phases respectively. The experiments were carried out in a 100 mm ID of 2m height vertical Plexiglas column. Knowledge of minimum liquid semi fluidization velocity is essential for the successful operation of gas-liquid-solid semi fluidized beds. Bed pressure measurements have been made to predict the values of the minimum liquid semi fluidization velocity. In the present work, hydrodynamic characteristics viz., the pressure drop, bed expansion of a co-current gas-liquid-solid semi fluidized bed has been studied. These have done in order to develop a good understanding of each of the flow regime in gas-liquid and liquid-solid semi fluidization. The effect of static bed height, particle size, liquid velocity and gas velocity on hydrodynamics parameters like minimum semi fluidization velocity, pressure drop, expansion ratio have been investigated. Experimental study based on statistical design has been made to investigate the expansion ratio of semi fluidized bed. The experimental val.

Book excerpt: The hydrodynamics of three-phase (gas-liquid-solid) fluidized beds has been studied in two columns of 7.62 and 15.2 cm in dia. The minimum gas and liquid velocities necessary to fluidize a bed were determined as a function of the particle size and density and the liquid viscosity; no effect of the initial bed height or column diameter was found. An electroconductivity technique was used to measure local concentrations of solid, liquid, and gas in the fluidized bed; these profiles were fitted using the error function. Overall solid holdup data were combined with over 1350 points from the literature to yield a dimensional correlation involving the physical parameters of the systems studied.

This book was released on 2014-01-01 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The general purpose of the experimental investigations described here has to study the hydrodynamic properties of gas-liquid fluidized beds. Gas -liquid fluidization of or three-phase fluidization is a chemical engineering operation where all the three phases are brought into contact with each other. This contact is brought about by passing the gas and liquid trough the bed of solids. The solids are said to be in a fluidized state when they are suspended in the continuous phase.Hydrodynamic properties such as gas hold-up, liquid hold-up and bed porosity have been studied. These properties depend upon certain independent variables such as gas flow rates, liquid flow rate, particle size, static bed heights, gas density, liquid density, solid density, liquid surface tension, liquid viscosity, gas viscosity and particle shape. During the course of this experimental investigation only four of these parameters have been varied, viz, gas flow rates, liquid flow rates, static bed height and particle size.The result of these experimental investigations is discussed and correlations have also been developed for the hydrodynamics properties studied.

Book The Hydrodynamic Behavior of an Inverse Liquid solid Circulating Fluidized Bed

Download or read book The Hydrodynamic Behavior of an Inverse Liquid solid Circulating Fluidized Bed written by Amin Jaberi and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this work the hydrodynamic behavior of an inverse liquid-solid circulating fluidized bed (ILSCFB) system was studied. In addition, the hydrodynamic characteristic of the inverse liquid-solid fluidization under the conventional fluidization regime was also studied. The system consists of a downer with an inner column diameter of 7.6 cm and a height of 5.4 meters, an upcomer (riser) with an inner column diameter of 20 cm, a separator, and feeding and returning pipes which connect the downer and the upcomer. Based on the axial hydrodynamic behavior of the ILSCFB, it was found that the axial solids holdup in the downer is uniform. Similar to the heavy-particle LSCFB, the circulating fluidization regime in the downer was separated into the two zones including the initial circulating fluidization zone and the fully developed circulating fluidized zone as a function of the total liquid velocity in the downer. The effects of the solids inventory and the counter current flow in the upcomer on the hydrodynamics of the downer were also studied. Afterwards, the radial distribution of particles was studied in the downer of the ILSCFB. Interestingly, the radial structure of the two-phase flow was completely different from the case of the heavy-particle LSCFB. It was found that the solids holdup was greater in the center than near the wall of the downer. Finally, the conventional (non-circulating) inverse liquid-solid fluidization was studied in a column with a large diameter for the first time. The minimum fluidization velocity was obtained experimentally and compared with the Richardson and Zaki model. It was concluded that the Richardson and Zaki model can predict the bed expansion in the case of the inverse liquid-solid fluidization when the terminal velocity was calculated by the model of free rising light particles.

Book Hydrodynamics of Three phase Fluidized Beds

Download or read book Hydrodynamics of Three phase Fluidized Beds written by and published by . This book was released on 1978 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The hydrodynamics of three-phase (gas-liquid-solid) fluidized beds has been studied in two columns with inside diameters of 7.62 and 15.2 cm respectively. The minimum gas and liquid velocities necessary to fluidize various types of solids were determined and correlated as a function of the particle size and density and the liquid viscosity; no effect of the initial bed height or column diameter was found. Overall phase holdups, or volume fractions, determined from a homogeneous bed model were combined with similar literature data to yield correlations for the overall gas and solid phase holdups. The overall gas holdup increased as the gas velocity was increased, while the overall solid holdup was decreased by increased liquid velocity and was increased by increased particle diameter or solid/liquid density difference. An electroconductivity technique was developed for use in the three-phase fluidized beds which allowed each of the phase holdups to be determined at any point in the column. The technique has shown the existence of a transition region as the bed goes from a three-phase to a two-phase system. The holdup profiles were fitted using the error function, and the mean and standard deviation of the solid holdup profile, along with the gas and solid holdups in the regions where they were constant, were measured for each set of run conditions. Use of these five parameters, which were correlated with the physical pxrameters of the systems studied, permits each of the three phase holdup profiles to be predicted. This gives the reactor designer more information concerning phase distributions than was available previously; thus it will aid in the design of reactors where local conditions throughout the bed must be considered.
