Modelling Anaerobic Digestion of Cow Manure to Predict Methane Flow Rate
Anaerobic digestion (AD) of biowastes is one of the most common ways to produce methane-rich biogas, which has considerable potential to replace the fossil fuel used in multiple applications, such as vehicular transportation, internal combustion engines, cogeneration of heat and power systems and many other systems. Many companies are involved in the design and construction of anaerobic digesti...
متن کاملAnaerobic digestion of animal waste: effect of mixing.
Six laboratory scale biogas mixed anaerobic digesters were operated to study the effect of biogas recycling rates and draft tube height on their performance. The digesters produced methane at 0.40-0.45 L per liter of digester volume per day. A higher methane production rate was observed in unmixed digesters, while increased biogas circulation rate reduced methane production. However, different ...
متن کاملModeling of Anaerobic Digestion of Complex Substrates
A structured mathematical model of anaerobic conversion of complex organic materials in non-ideally cyclic-batch reactors for biogas production has been developed. The model is based on multiple-reaction stoichiometry (enzymatic hydrolysis, acidogenesis, acetogenesis and methanogenesis), microbial growth kinetics, conventional material balances in the liquid and gas phases for a cyclic-bat...
متن کاملCFD modelling of two-phase stirred bioreaction systems by segregated solution of the Euler-Euler model
An advanced study of a bioreactor system involving aNavier–Stokes basedmodel has been accomplished. The model allows a more realistic impeller induced flow image to be combined with the Monod bioreaction kinetics reported previously. The time-course of gluconic acid production by Aspergillus niger strain is simulated at kinetic conditions proposed in the literature. The simulation is based on (...
متن کاملEuler-lagrange Equations
. Consider a mechanical system consisting of N particles in R subject to some forces. Let xi ∈ R denote the position vector of the ith particle. Then all possible positions of the system are described by N -tuples (x1, . . . , xN ) ∈ (R) . The space (R) is an example of a configuration space. The time evolution of the system is described by a curve (x1(t), . . . , xN (t)) in (R) and is governed...
