The effect of liquid flow velocity on biofilm development in a membrane-aerated biofilm reactor was investigated both by mathematical modeling and by experiment, using Vibrio natriegens as a test organism and acetate as carbon substrate. It was shown that velocity influenced mass transfer in the dif

β¦ Synopsis
Cocurrent downflow circulating fluidized-bed (or downer) reactors have been proposed as a better alternative to upflow riser reactors for certain types of chemical reactions where a short contact time is required and the intermediate is the desired product, given the uniform flow structure and the greatly reduced gas and solids dispersion in the axial direction observed in the downers

A numerical study was conducted to analyse the e!ect of #ow distribution of stirred part and plug #ow part on combustion e$ciency at the coal gasi"cation process in an entrained bed coal reactor. The model of computation was based on gas-phase Eulerian balance equations of momentum and mass. The sol
