A novel population balance model for the dilute acid hydrolysis of hemicellulose. [PDF]

open access: yesBiotechnol Biofuels, 2015
Acid hydrolysis is a popular pretreatment for removing hemicellulose from lignocelluloses in order to produce a digestible substrate for enzymatic saccharification.

Hybrid modeling of drop breakage in pulsed sieve tray extraction columns

open access: yesFrontiers 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

Computational Fluid Dynamics Modelling of Two-Phase Bubble Columns: A Comprehensive Review

open access: yesFluids, 2023
Bubble columns are used in many different industrial applications, and their design and characterisation have always been very complex. In recent years, the use of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) has become very popular in the field of multiphase ...

Modelling of Bubbly Flow Using CFD-PBM Solver in OpenFOAM: Study of Local Population Balance Models and Extended Quadrature Method of Moments Applications

open access: yesChemEngineering, 2018
In order to optimize and design new bubbly flow reactors, it is necessary to predict the bubble behavior and properties with respect to the time and location. In gas-liquid flows, it is easily observed that the bubble sizes may vary widely.

Population balance modelling for a flow induced phase inversion based granulation in a two-dimensional rotating agglomerator [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
A novel two-dimensional rotating agglomerator was developed to carry out the flow induced phase inversion (FIPI) based granulation. The process in this agglomerator shows that a continuous paste flow (mixed with liquid binder and primary particles) is ...

Development of a multi-compartment population balance model for high-shear wet granulation with discrete element method [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
This paper presents a multi-compartment population balance model for wet granulation coupled with DEM (discrete element method) simulations. Methodologies are developed to extract relevant data from the DEM simulations to inform the population balance ...

Describing Mining Tailing Flocculation in Seawater by Population Balance Models: Effect of Mixing Intensity

open access: yesMetals, 2020
A population balance model (PBM) is used to describe flocculation of particle tailings in seawater at pH 8 for a range of mixing intensities. The size of the aggregates is represented by the mean chord length, determined by the focused beam reflectance ...

Numerical Simulation of Flow and Argon Bubble Distribution in a Continuous Casting Slab Mold under Different Argon Injection Modes

open access: yesMetals, 2023
A three-dimensional model is established to investigate the effect of argon injection mode, argon flow rate and casting speed on the gas–liquid two-phase flow behavior inside a slab continuous casting mold.

Prediction of Bubble Size Distributions in Large-Scale Bubble Columns Using a Population Balance Model

open access: yesComputation, 2019
A precise estimation of the bubble size distribution (BSD) is required to understand the fluid dynamics in gas-liquid bubble columns at the “bubble scale,” evaluate the heat and mass transfer rate, and support scale-up approaches.
