A pilot-scale plant consisting of an oxidation basin (OB), a neutralization basin (NB), a reaction basin (RB), and a settling basin (SB) was designed and built to conduct pilot-scale experiments. With this system, the effects of aeration and pH on ferrous oxidation and on precipitation of the oxidized products were studied systemically. The results of pilot-scale tests showed that aeration at 3...

A general mathematical model that predicts the flow fields in a mixed-flow anaerobic digester was developed. In this model, the liquid manure was assumed to be a non-Newtonian fluid, and the flow governed by the continuity, momentum, and k-epsilon standard turbulence equations, and non-Newtonian power law model. The commercial computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software, Fluent, was applied to ...

When writing can change your life, when writing can enrich you by offering much money, why don't you try it? Are you still very confused of where getting the ideas? Do you still have no idea with what you are going to write? Now, you will need reading. A good writer is a good reader at once. You can define how you write depending on what books to read. This have we made progress the clinical pl...

In this work, a Co-Fe-Ni catalyst was prepared and the effect of a range of operational variables such as gas hourly space velocity (GHSV), calcination temperature, calcination time and agent on its catalytic performance for green-fuels production was investigated. By application of different characterization techniques such as XRD, BET, TGA/DSC, and SEM, it was found that these parameters have...

The ability to efficiently and comprehensively evaluate synthetic routes at their earliest stage of development is especially important in pharmaceutical process research and development and chemical engineering laboratories [1 and 2]. The evaluation and optimization of typically complex synthetic sequences (involving many reaction parameters) frequently entails bench-scale experimentation of a...

in this article several control schemes for a pilot scale polymerization reactor are proposed and one of them is selected as the most suitable design. the performances of proposed schemes have been compared through computer simulations. the controllers are pid and chosen reaction is polymerization of methyl methacrylate which is highly exothermic.
