Packing Characterization: Mass Transfer Properties

 Abstract Packing is widely used in post-combustion CO2 capture. This paper is focused
on the measurement of three fundamental packing characteristics: effective gas-liquid
contact area (ae), gas phase and liquid phase film mass transfer coefficient...

Upgrading wet granulation monitoring from hand squeeze test to mixing torque rheometry

Abstract With over 50years of research in granulation technology, however more

research is required to elucidate this widely applicable technology. Wetting phenomena
could influence redistribution of individual ingredients within a granule according ...

 Comparison of Downer and Riser Flows in a Circulating Bed by Means of Optical Fiber Probe
Signals Measurements

Abstract In this work, the riser (2.42 m high) and downer (0,85 m high) sections with an
ID of 82mm in both, were analyzed to study the temporal fluid dynamics properties of a
circulating bed system in terms of electrical signals of particles...

Numerical investigation of transport phenomena properties on transient heat transfer in a

vertical pipe flow

Abstract Transient convection heat transfer is of fundamental interest in many industrial

and environmental situations, as well as in electronic devices and security of energy
systems. Transient fluid flow problems are among the more difficult to...

The Adsorption of CHS-1 Resin for Cr (VI) of Low Concentration from Electroplating Wastewater

Abstract The adsorption property of CHS-1 resin for Cr (VI) was investigated by
chemical analysis. Experiment results show that CHS-1 resin has the best adsorption
ability for Cr (VI) at pH=2-3. The exchange adsorption rate of the resin for Cr (VI)...

Variation of Oxygen Transfer along the Rectangular Weir Crest Distance of Wastewater
Treatment Pond

Abstract Community, instead of industrial factories, has been identified as a big point
sources for wastewater in which it also spread out around the Kingdom of Thailand. The
government inverted to settle wastewater treatment plants to recover them...

Experimental study of cake formation on heat treated and membrane coated needle felts in a
pilot scale pulse jet bag filter using optical in-situ cake height measurement

Abstract Pulse-jet bag filters are frequently employed for particle removal from off gases.
Separated solids form a layer on the permeable filter media called filter cake. The cake is
responsible for increasing pressure drop. Therefore, the cake has ...

Utilizing a highly responsive gene, yhjX, in E. coli based production of 1,4-butanediol

Abstract The role of yhjX, a predicted major facilitator superfamily protein, was
examined in context of E. coli response to 1,4-butanediol (1,4-BDO). E. coli DH1 and
MG1655, two commonly used metabolic engineering hosts, were both sensitive to the...

Double Diffusive Natural Convective Flow Characteristics in a Cavity

 Abstract The influences of Soret and Dufour coefficients on free convection flow
phenomena in a partially heated square cavity filled with water- Al2O3 nanofluid is
studied numerically. The top surface has constant temperature T ...

Dynamic operation of amine scrubbing in response to electricity demand and pricing

Abstract This paper examines dynamic operation of CO2 capture with

absorption/stripping using 7 m MEA, where the absorber is operated at full capacity with
the stripper at reduced load. Depending on the cost of CO2 emissions, doing so in
response to ...
