Degradation of Synthetic Reactive Red Dye and Bioremediation of Textile Effluent Using Penicillium chrysogenum in a Fluidized-Bed Reactor
Abstract: 800x600 Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE Bioremediation of reactive red dye using five fungal species (Aspergillus niger, Penicillium chrysogenum, Fusarium oxysporum, Trichoderma harzianum and Sacchromyces cerevisiae) was studied in a shake flask system for 13 days. A. niger (91%) and P. chrysogenum (91%) were efficient decolorizers of red dye followed by F. oxysporum, and T. harzianum (84% and 53% respectively). Decolorization efficiency of P. chrysogenum in fluidized-bed …

Studies on Waste Water Treatment in Three Phase Semifluidized Bed Bioreactors: Computer Aided Analysis and Software Development
Abstract: Design and performance analysis of three phase semifluidized biofilm reactors for aerobic treatment of industrial effluents have been attempted. Bioconversion processes that follow Monod-type kinetics and those following Haldane-Andrews kinetics (involving substrate inhibition to microbial growth) have been considered as typical cases. The bioreactor has been modelled mathematically by solving performance equations separately for the packed section and for the fluidized section, considering dispersed flow in both of these sections, …

Formation of Reaction Bubbles in FCC Riser Reactor
Abstract: For modeling FCC unit, art of defining undefined hydrocarbon misxtures in conjunction with application of two different specialized fields of Chemical Engineering–Chemical Reaction Engineering (CRE) and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) are required. CRE needs elaboarte and appropriate definition of undefined mixture and their chemical kinetics, whereas CFD needs solution of more regorous differential equations to define fluctuating and turbulent flow. Most of the reported works in available literature seems to …
