摘要: Waste removal efficiency of gas-liquid biofilter reactors for waste water treatment depends on its flow regime and residence time distribution (RTD) as key parameters bio-reactor performance. The present study reports RTD in a fibrous fixed bed biofilm reactor related to fluid velocity range appropriate operation. data from tracer experiments are correlated terms the one-parameter "tanks-in-series" model. aerated function is found be dependent net liquid gas phase superficial U(L) U(G). Liquid internal recirculation exhibited small effect comparable with flow. A power law relationship relating number perfectly mixed cells elaborated. Assuming similarity prototype real vessels' fields, equation well corresponding can used design scale-up. Comparison over model obtained bubble columns at low shows results this previous mesh wire packing.
