Hydrodynamics of an Airlift Bioreactor Treating Petroleum-based Liquids: Experiment and CFDM

Abstract: Bubble diameter as well as total and local gas holdups in an airlift bioreactor with water, diesel, and different water-in-diesel microemulsions was studied. Both 2D and 3D Eulerian models together with experimental bubble diameters were used to simulate the bioreactor. The accuracy of results in the 2D model depends on the bubble diameter. The 3D model was in better agreement with the experiments.

“…However, this vehicle's braking frequency is very large (because the bus must continuously increase and decelerate depending on the traffic density on the road and bus stop station). In addition, the number of buses used in urban areas is very large, along with the development of public transport is an inevitable trend in the current period and tends to increase in the future [19]. Therefore, the problem of energy recovery of the brake system on urban buses brings great economic efficiency while also contributing to reducing environmental pollution [20].…”
