Hybrid modeling of drop breakage in pulsed sieve tray extraction columns
Frontiers in Chemical Engineering, 2023 Accurate models for pulsed sieve tray extraction columns (PSEs) depend on the correct prediction of the drop diameter to estimate extractive mass transfer across the phase boundary. Phenomenologically, the drop diameter is determined by a balance of drop

Efficient numerical schemes for multidimensional population balance models
Computers & Chemical Engineering, 2023 Multidimensional population balance models (PBMs) describe chemical and biological processes having a distribution over two or more intrinsic properties (such as size and age, or two independent spatial variables). The incorporation of additional intrinsic variables into a PBM improves its descriptive capability and can be necessary to capture specific

Two-phase flow modelling by an error-corrected population balance model
Engineering Applications of Computational Fluid Mechanics, 2023 High-velocity aerated flow is a common phenomenon in spillways. Its accurate modelling is challenging, mainly due to the lack of realistic physics in the conventional two-phase models.

Filtration of Emulsions: The Population Balance Modeling [PDF]
LiquidsFiltration of emulsions is an important operation in multiple processes of chemical, environmental, and petroleum engineering. The primary concern of the present study is cleaning of water produced from a petroleum reservoir. The produced water is filtered from the oil droplets before being dumped into the sea or reinjected into the reservoir ...
