Research on the influence of aeration manners on the mass transfer characteristics of bubbles in multi-column airlift photobioreactor
Mass transfer of bubbles is important in microalgae cultivation. In this study, aiming to improve the microalgae culturing efficiency, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) was adopted to study the influence of the aeration manners on mass transfer of bubbles within ascending columns in multi-column airlift photobioreactor (PBR) and the hydrodynamic conditions within the PBR under different aeration manners. In addition, the bubble generation time, the detachment diameter, and the average volumetric mass transfer coefficient of bubbles in ascending columns were analyzed. Furthermore, the experimental results were compared with the simulation results obtained from microalgae cultivation. The results showed that the whole aeration manner yields the lowest mixing strength and mass transfer efficiency of bubbles at an aeration rate of 0.2 vvm. Conversely, both the mixing strength of the liquid and mass transfer coefficient of bubbles were enhanced under the half and alternate aeration manners. However, the results demonstrated that the distribution of the flow field was not uniform under the half aeration manner and there were obvious high-speed and low-speed zones. In contrast, the flow field distribution in the PBR was more uniform under the alternate aeration manner, which was suitable for microalgae cultivation at high concentration. This study effectively enhanced the mixing strength and CO2 transfer rate in the PBR.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
