Towards Large Scale Packed Bed Chromatography Simulations with OpenFOAM R ©
Column liquid chromatography (CLC) is a widely used unit operation in biotech and chemical process engineering for purification of target products (e.g. proteins for pharmaceutical agents) from unwanted substances. An aqueous solution containing the mixture of molecules is forced to flow through the chromatography column which is filled with porous particles (beads). While transport through the...
متن کاملHigh-fidelity DEM-CFD modeling of packed bed reactors for process intensification
A high-fidelity DEM-CFD model is newly proposed for process intensification of packed bed reactors. The discrete element method (DEM) is employed for simulating random packing under gravity with hundreds of spheres in a cylindrical tube. It is verified that the DEM is capable of constituting a packed bed whose voidage well agrees with the literature according to particle-to-tube diameter ratio....
متن کاملPower generation by packed-bed air-cathode microbial fuel cells.
Catalysts and catalyst binders are significant portions of the cost of microbial fuel cell (MFC) cathodes. Many materials have been tested as aqueous cathodes, but air-cathodes are needed to avoid energy demands for water aeration. Packed-bed air-cathodes were constructed without expensive binders or diffusion layers using four inexpensive carbon-based materials. Cathodes made from activated ca...
متن کاملCFD Simulation of Parameters Affecting Hydrodynamics of Packed Beds: Effects of Particle Shape, Bed Size, and Bed Length
Packed bed reactors have many applications in different industries such as chemical, petrochemical, and refinery industries. In this work, the effects of some parameters such as the shape and size of particles, bed size, and bed length on the hydrodynamics of the packed beds containing three spherical, cylindrical, and cubic particles types are investigated using CFD. The effect of the combinat...
متن کاملHigh-fidelity CFD modeling of particle-to-fluid heat transfer in packed bed reactors
The novel high-fidelity CFD model for packed bed reactors is validated in terms of Nu regarding particle-to-fluid heat transfer. The model is developed to take into consideration the flow of heat, mass and momentum through and around the particles each shaped without geometrical simplification. In the present approach, cylindrical shaped solid geometries are used to bridge particles in or near ...
