Gas dispersion in non-Newtonian fluids is encountered in a broad range of chemical,
biochemical, and food industries. Mechanically agitated vessels are commonly employed in …

The efficiency of dark fermentation, as one of the most promising bioconversion
technologies to produce biohydrogen, largely depends on some important parameters, such …

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is a widely used tool for investigating fluid flows in
bioreactors. It has been used in the biopharmaceutical industry for years and has …

One of the significant challenges in the efficient operation of bioreactors is uniform gas
dispersion in very viscous non-Newtonian fluids because of the complex rheology exhibited …

The use of coaxial mixers has significantly improved gas dispersion in non-Newtonian fluids.
However, to the best of our knowledge, no scale-up investigation of an aerated coaxial mixer …

Power consumption and oxygen transfer are considered the two most important direct
indexes, affecting the effective and cost-efficient C5 sugar acid fermentation from C5 sugar …

Organisms used in fermentation processes are sometimes inhibited by accumulation of
products or by-products. One route to circumvent this is via extractive fermentation. To …

To reduce the power consumption and improve the mixing performance in stirred tanks, two
improved disc turbines namely swept-back parabolic disc turbine (SPDT) and staggered fan …

The liquid mean and fluctuating velocity field, the pressure drop, the gas-phase distribution
and the bubble size distribution in a compact inline swirler for gas–liquid separation were …

In this work, we present the results collected in a gas-liquid stirred tank by a combination of
experimental and computational methods, with the aim of presenting original data on the …
