The concentric-tube internal loop airlift reactor is a typical reactor configuration which has
been adopted for a myriad of chemical and biological processes. The reactor …

Cultivation of microalgae and controlling its growth and performance in closed
photobioreactors (PBRs) are easier than open pond systems for wastewater treatment. The …

Desulfurization in fuel has become more and more important due to increasingly stringent
environmental protection policies. Mesoporous materials have attracted considerable …

The world is becoming warmer due to the increase of greenhouses gas release, particularly
CO 2. The bio-fixation process in the bioreactor is one of the environment-friendly methods …

In this paper, we present a number of key numerical methods that can be used to study
elongated particles in fluid flows, with a specific emphasis on fluidised beds. Fluidised beds …

This study focused on detailed investigations of selected local hydrodynamics in split airlift
reactor by using an unconventional measurements facility: computed tomography (CT) and …

Hydrocarbon substrates can be upgraded to high-value products through biological
oxidation processes, whereby an oxygen moiety is inserted into the hydrocarbon backbone …

Biotechnology through plant cell cultures in bioreactors is a tool that allows increasing the
production of secondary metabolites of commercial interest. The hydrodynamic …

The rise of CO2 concentration on Earth is a major environmental problem that causes global
warming. To solve this issue, carbon capture and sequestration technologies are becoming …

To design bioprocesses utilising hydrocarbon-metabolising organisms (HMO) as
biocatalysts, the effect of the organism on the hydrodynamics of bubble column reactor …
