Effect of liquid-phase surface tension on hydrodynamics of a three-phase airlift reactor with an enlarged degassing zone
[Excerpt] Airlift reactors are especially useful for operations requiring solid-suspension without high shear force (e.g. fermentation and cell culture). Fermentation broths are complex mixture of cells, sugars, electrolytes, proteins, etc. and exhibit high viscosity, low surface tension and non-New...
