Hydrodynamic and Mass Transfer Characteristics of Annulus-Rising Airlift Reactor – The Effect of Reactor Scale

Hydrodynamic and mass transfer characteristics of an annulus-rising airlift reactor (AR_ALR) were investigated with experimental and CFD simulation methods. A three-phase Eulerian model was developed to simulate the AR_ALR in three flow regimes. 3D steady state CFD simulations were performed under d...
