Internal flat-plate airlift cylindrical reactor for the degradation of newspaper using Trichoderma reesei: characterization of hydrodynamics parameters
Abstract:Trichoderma is a fungus that can degrade cellulose-rich waste using enzymes derived from their cellular metabolism. For its growth, aerated bioreactors are used in submerged culture where oxygen is one of the elements that limits this process. The aim of this study was to characterize the hydrodynamics and mass transfer of an internal flat-plate airlift cylindrical bioreactor for the biodegradation of newspaper using T. reesei as a study model. Hydrodynamics (gas hold-up, mixing time, and the Reynolds number) … Show more
