When the crisscross baffles and logarithmic spiral baffles are placed on the bottom of the stirred tank with elliptic bottom, using CFD software FLUENT simulates the velocity field of the stirred tank with elliptic bottom and bottom baffles. Compare the velocity field of stirred tank with bottom crisscross baffle to the velocity field of stirred tank without bottom baffle and analysis the flow ...

The formation of acetate by Acetobacterium woodii was studied systematically in batch-operated stirred-tank reactors at different hydrogen and carbon dioxide partial pressures in the gas phase. 48 parallel stirred-tank reactors on a millilitre-scale as well as stirred-tank reactors on a litre-scale were applied for the detailed reaction engineering analysis of hydrogenotrophic acetate formation...

multiphase impeller stirred tank reactors enhance mixing of reacting species used in a variety of chemical industries. these reactors have been studied based on computational fluid dynamics (cfd) that can be used in the analysis, design and scale up of these reactors. most of the researches done in this area are limited to single phase reactors, and a few remaining two phase flow investigations...

This study demonstrates the applicability of pressurized stirred tank bioreactors for oxygen transfer enhancement in aerobic cultivation processes. The specific power input and the reactor pressure was employed as process variable. As model organism Escherichia coli, Arxula adeninivorans, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Corynebacterium glutamicum were cultivated to high cell densities. By applying...

Stirred tanks are widely used in process industries for blending of singleand/or multiple-phase fluids, which often involves mass and/or heat transfer, chemical reactions, etc. Deep knowledge of flow field in the stirred tank is necessary to carry out these unit operations efficiently. As a result, extensive investigations of the flow in stirred tanks have been conducted over the past several d...

This paper presents a comparative study of Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor concentration control using Particle Swam Optimization and Bacterial Forging Optimization. Continuous stirred tank reactor plays a very important role in process industry. This paper presents the optimal design of PID controller based on Particle Swarm Optimization and Bacterial Forging Optimization. The first step is th...

Experiments Most publications of velocity measurements in stirred tanks concern measurements in single-phase flows. An excellent review of these studies was made by Ranade and Joshi (1990a). Literature concerning velocity measurements in aerated stirred tanks is scarcer however. An overview of literature is given in Table 1. Lu and Ju (1987) used constant temperature anemometry (CTA) in order t...

The non-isothermal continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR) is a classical yet complex case study of nonlinear dynamical systems. Power-shaping control is a recent approach for the control of nonlinear systems based on the physics of the dynamical system and it rests on the formulation of the dynamics in the Brayton-Moser form. The Brayton-Moser formulation of the non-isothermal continuous stirre...

In this paper the design of a nonlinear feedback controller is analyzed for concentration control of continuous stirred tank reactors (CSTR) which have strong nonlinearities. Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor (CSTR) is one of the common reactors in chemical process and all industrial process requires a solution of specific chemical strength of chemicals considered for analysis. Here Particle Swar...
