ANALYSIS OF TRICKLE BED AND PACKED BUBBLE COLUMN BIOREACTORS FOR COMBINED CARBON OXIDATION AND NITRIFICATION

Biological removal of nitrogen and carbon by combined nitrification-oxidation in gas-liquid trickle-bed reactors (TBRs) and packed bubble columns (PBCs) was analyzed theoretically using a transient two-dimensional model. The model describes TBR and PBC performances at steady state as well as their t...
