Modified airlift reactor with a cross-shaped internal and its hydrodynamic simulation by computational fluid dynamic method

A modified airlift reactor (ALR) with a cross-shaped internal was developed to achieve beneficial flow conditions for an advantageous biological process. To study the effect of introduced internal on the reactor's hydrodynamics, computational fluid dynamics simulation method was applied to pred...
