In this work a comprehensive study on wastewater treatment of industrial urea plants by thermal hydrolysis reactors is presented. A superior model is developed for two main co-current and counter-current modes of urea thermal hydrolysis reactor. In the proposed model the urea hydrolysis reactor is divided into several continuously stirred-tank reactors (CSTRs). The vapor-liquid equilibria are treated simultaneously with chemical reactions due to the complex features of urea hydrolysis system. The model provides temperature and concentration distributions of urea along the thermal hydrolyser. The validity of the proposed model was verified by the industrial observed data. Sensitivity analysis was carried out to investigate the effect of the various operating parameters on the performance of two types of hydrolysis reactors. Comparison of two kinds of hydrolysis reactors shows in order to observe the old environmental pollution standards, the co-current configuration of hydrolyser is more suitable than the counter-current one. However to achieve new environmental pollution standards and complete treatment, the counter-current configuration was the only acceptable practicable mode. Overall, this study results in valuable information about the performance of the co-current and counter-current modes of hydrolysis reactor in urea wastewater treatment. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V.

Rotating liquid sheet contactor: A new gas-liquid contactor system in CO2 absorption by nanofluids

Morteza Mehdipour, Peyman Keshavarz, Mohammad Reza Rahimpour

Summary: The research introduced a rotating liquid sheet (RLS) contactor for CO2 absorption, and found that tube rotation enhances gas-liquid mass transfer while increasing gas flow rate and CO2 concentration decrease capture efficiency. In all experimental conditions, ZnO nanofluids were more effective than SiO2 nanofluids.

CO2 separation by rotating liquid sheet contactor: A novel procedure to improve mass transfer characterization

Morteza Mehdipour, Abbas Elhambakhsh, Peyman Keshavarz, Mohammad Reza Rahimpour, Yasha Hasanzadeh

Summary: The rotating liquid sheet contactor was utilized to separate CO2 content from CO2/N2 gas mixtures, achieving a separation efficiency of over 95% with DEA solution. An increase in gas flow rate and CO2 inlet concentration leads to higher absorption flux but lower separation efficiency. Improving solvent concentration enhances the CO2 removal process.

Prediction of phosphate adsorption amount, capacity and kinetics via machine learning: A generally physical-based process and proposed strategy of using descriptive text messages to enrich datasets

Baiqin Zhou, Huiping Li, Ziyu Wang, Hui Huang, Yujun Wang, Ruichun Yang, Ranran Huo, Xiaoyan Xu, Ting Zhou, Xiaochen Dong

Summary: The use of machine learning to predict the performance of specific adsorbents in phosphate adsorption shows great promise in saving time and revealing underlying mechanisms. However, the small size of the dataset and insufficient detailed information limits the model training process and the accuracy of results. To address this, the study employs a fuzzing strategy that replaces detailed numeric information with descriptive text messages on the physiochemical properties of adsorbents. This strategy allows the recovery of discarded samples with limited information, leading to accurate prediction of adsorption amount, capacity, and kinetics. The study also finds that phosphate uptake by adsorbents is generally through physisorption, with some involvement of chemisorption. The framework established in this study provides a practical approach for quickly predicting phosphate adsorption performance in urgent scenarios, using easily accessible information.
