several methods are used to decrease seed drying time and enhance the quality of dried seeds. influidization methods, good aeration occurs during the drying process. in this research, conditioned seedswith 20% d.b. moisture content were dried at 30°, 40°, 50° and 60°c using three bed conditions (fixed,minimum fluidized, fluidized). all experiments were done using a batch-type fluidized bed drye...

In this research, the generation process of engineered microsphere agarose adsorbent has been explained that has surfaces with different active sites to adsorb protein nanoparticles into the fluidized-bed system. Also, excellent selectivity of protein nanoparticles, high adsorption capacity, and fast equilibrium rate through the eco-friendly polymeric adsorbents were vital aims in here. Hence, ...

High temperature Fischer-Tropsch synthesis process use fixed fluidized bed as a reactor. In order to understand the flow behavior in the fluidized bed better, the research of how the radial velocity affects the entire flow field is necessary. Laser Doppler Velocimetry (LDV) was used to study the radial velocity distribution along the diameter direction of the cross-section of the particle in a ...

In this paper, combustion of char in the riser of circulating fluidized bed was modeled using ASPEN PLUS. Since physical and chemical phenomena are involved in the process, the model integrates the two-phase hydrodynamic sub-model with the reaction sub-model derived from the literature. In the proposed model, the fluidized bed is divided into several sections and the behavior of each section wa...

The history of fluidized bed technology dates back 60 years. Gasification of pulverized coal in the Winkler process during the 1920's marked the beginning of fluidized bed application. Consider­ ,able work done during World War II by U.S. oil companies to improve the catalytic cracking of kerosene led to the development of the Fluid Catalytic Cracking process. Fluidized bed technology later exp...

The mechanism of vibration energy transfer in a vibrating fluidized bed (VFB) is reported in this paper. A series of sensors was employed to simultaneously detect pressure wave propagation signals at different positions at various heights in the fluidized bed. The mechanism of vibration energy transfer in an VFB is found by wave propagation. The pressure wave was produced from a vibrating base ...

Fluidized bed techniques are employed in coal combustion power plants, because they allow for the use of low-quality fuel and result in low pollutant emissions. The most important dynamical difference between fluidized beds and normal combustion chambers, is that the former are characterized by a significant loading of carbon, usually absent in conventional plants. Fluidized beds are remarkably...

Pullulanase from Bacillus acidopullulyticus was purified on a packed bed and a fluidized bed of calcium alginate beads. The binding of enzyme activity to the medium was found to follow Langmuir isotherm pattern. The maximum binding capacity was 1476 U ml(-1) matrix and the dissociation constant was 142 U ml(-1). The dynamic binding capacities at 5% breakthrough in the packed and fluidized beds ...

the presence of particles in liquid-solid fluidized beds enhances the bed heat transfer, because the movement of the particles leads to an increased turbulence in the system. moreover, the violent movement of the particles has a positive effect on fouling of the heat transfer surface. the aim of this investigation was to perform systematic measurements of bed voidage and heat transfer coefficie...
