✦ Synopsis

Al~traet--Fluid dynamics of gas-liquid-particle flow in the draft tube and liquid-particle flow in the annulus were studied for a draft-tube fluidized bed (DTFB) operating in the circulating regime. The local concentrations and velocities of the continuous liquid phase, solid particles and air bubbles were assessed in flow visualization studies, using a two-dimensional column, 1 cm thick x 8 cm wide x 105 cm high, with a 4 cm wide x 83 cm high internal draft tube. The drift-flux model was extended to take into account the momentum transfer between all phases in the three-phase system studied, and used to describe the circulating flow in the DTFB. Additional momentum transfer from gas bubbles to solid particles was identified and attributed to the changes in relative velocities and drag forces induced by bubble motion in three-phase flow.

Considering the application of the technique of liquid spouting with multi draft tubes to heat exchangers, the solids circulation rate was studied both experimentally and theoretically. It was found that the solids circulation rate increased with the liquid velocity and with the amount of solids use

It has already been proved that the soft polyurethane foam particles are very effective carriers for immobilizing fungi and/or mycelia. However, the classic three phase fluid&d bed bioreactor was not effective enough for the production of antibiotics like penicillin due to the lower value of the mas
