One-Dimensional (1D) and Two-Dimensional (2D) Cell Network Models Were Developed to Simulate the Steady-State Behavior of Trickle-Bed Reactors Employed for the Highly Exothermic Hydrotreating of Benzene. the Multiphase Mass Transfer-Reaction Model and Novel Solution Method Are Discussed in This Report. the 1D Model Was Shown to Satisfactorily Simulate the Axial Temperature Field Observed Experimentally for Multiphase Flow with Exothermic Reactions. the 2D Reactor Modeling Provided Valuable Information About Local Hot Spot Behavior within the Multiphase Reactor, Identifying Situations in Which Hot Spots May Form. the Model Took into Consideration the Heterogeneous Nature of Liquid Distribution, Including Radial Liquid Maldistribution and …

An analytical expression to predict the impedance response of a dual insertion electrode cell (insertion electrodes separated by an ionically conducting membrane) is presented. The expression accounts for the reaction kinetics and double-layer adsorption processes at the electrode-electrolyte interface, transport of electroactive species in the electrolyte phase, and insertion of species in the solid phase of the insertion electrodes. The accuracy of the analytical expression is validated by comparing the impedance response predicted by the expression to the corresponding numerical solution. The analytical expression is used to predict the impedance response of a lithium-ion cell consisting of a porous LiCoO …

Wastewaters generated as byproducts of dyeing processes are not treatable with conventional methods. It has been estimated that among the 900,000 tons of different dyes produced annually in the world, approximately 10–15% are lost in wastewater streams during manufacturing and processing operations. Once in rivers and streams, dyes cause major problems, such as reducing light penetration, or displaying toxic effects on aquatic life. Therefore, it is essential that dyes are removed from wastewaters before being discharged into the environment.
This study focuses on the catalytic wet air oxidation (CWAO) of Orange II, a mono azo dye used in large amounts …
