Sensitivity Analysis of CPP’s for Solvent Removal Process of a API-Protein Bonded Nano-Suspension
Solvent extraction and evaporation is a widely used unit operation in the manufacturing of micro and nano-particles. Due to the weak bond of the API to the protein, the product is highly sensitive to temperature, mechanical mixing and extraction/evaporation rate. A slow extraction ... En savoir plus
Iron Ore Sintering Process Model to Study Local Permeability Control
The iron ore sintering process prepares fine iron ore for the blast furnace process. A mixture consisting of iron ore, coke (fuel) and additives is ignited at the top and air is sucked from below to move a combustion front down through the bed. Most of the sintering plants use ... En savoir plus
3D Unsteady CFD with Heat and Mass Transfer Simulations of Solar Adsorption Cooling System for Buildings
In recent years, extensive attention has been paid on the application of solar cooling for buildings. Amongst cooling technologies, low-temperature solar-driven adsorption cooling systems are emerging viable alternatives to electricity-driven vapour compression systems. They seem to have ...

This presentation explores the COMSOL platform for performing the kinetics estimation and subsequent reaction engineering of a catalytic reaction with formation of competing ... En savoir plus
Mapping the Limitations of Breakthrough Analysis in Fixed-Bed Adsorption
In a recent publication (Limitations of Breakthrough Curve Analysis in Fixed-Bed Adsorption, Ind. Eng. Chem. Res. 2016, 55, 4734-4748) the authors discussed the a priori prediction of the axial dispersion coefficient from available correlations versus obtaining it and also mass transfer ... En savoir plus
Electrical and Bubbly Flow Modeling of a Molten Salt Electrolysis Cell
A laboratory-scale electrolysis cell for the recovery of metals is simulated with COMSOL Multiphysics® software. Two models are implemented: an electrical model simulating the current density (reaction rate) distribution at the electrodes and a laminar bubbly flow model which solves for ... En savoir plus
Transient CFD Investigation of a Photocatalytic Multi-tube Reactor
As in industrial countries, people spend most of their time indoors and the stringent heat-insulation measures in combination with deficient ventilation have a negative impact on indoor air quality, one approach for abating indoor air pollution is the integration or retrofitting of a ...
