    Notes: Abstract The full implications of a statistical model for growth of a microbial cell population using cell mass as the index of physiological state have been examined by solving the partial differential integral equations resulting from the model. Calculations reveal that a lag phase is predicted during the initial stages of batch growth although no specific cellular mechanism for the phenomenon of lag had been incorporated into the model. The model predicts several situations of batch and continuous growth in which the population density and biomass concentration show opposing trends due to significant variation in the cell mass distribution with time.

    Notes: Abstract The coagulation frequency is the key ingredient in the population balance (Smoluchowski) equation of coagulation kinetics. An inverse problem is formulated to extract the coagulation frequency from transient size distributions when these distributions are self-similar. Two numerical examples illustrate the procedure. The first demonstrates the inverse problem for the recovery of singular coagulation frequencies, while the second shows the procedure when self-similarity is approximate. Transient droplet coagulation experiments in a turbulent flow field have been performed. The resulting size distributions are observed to be self-similar. The inverse problem is used to determine the drop coagulation frequency. This frequency shows significant deviation from the coagulation frequencies derived from simple models of drop-drop interactions in a turbulent flow field.

    Notes: Abstract The relationships between various size distributions in balanced exponential growth of a batch culture of microorganisms are presented. Starting from the partial differential integral equations (Eakmanet al., 1966; Fredricksonet al., 1967) derived for the growth of a microbial culture expressions are obtained for the growth rate of organisms of specific size and size range. These expressions were first obtained by Collins and Richmond (1962) by an entirely different method. Also derived are equations which link probability functions, which are basic to the growth of a microbial culture, with other size distributions that can be estimated experimentally.

    Notes: Abstract A major aspect of describing transport in heterogeneous media has been that of relating effective diffusivities to the topological properties of the medium. While such effective transport coefficients may be useful for mass fractals or under steady state conditions, they are not adequate under transient conditions for self-similar pore fractal media. In porous formations without scale, diffusion is anomalous with the mean-squared displacement of a particle proportional to time raised to a fractional exponent less than unity. The objective of this review is to investigate the nature of the laws of diffusion in fractal media using the framework of linear response theory of nonequilibrium statistical mechanics. A Langevin/Fokker-Planck approach reveals that the particle diffusivity depends on its age defined as the time spent by the particle since its entry into the medium. An analysis via generalized hydrodynamics describes fractal diffusion with a frequency and wave number dependent diffusivity.

    Notes: Liquid-liquid dispersions are commonly used for separations and reaction systems, because the added interfacial area due to dispersion aids in mass transfer and chemical reaction rates. Transient coalescence experiments have been performed for a wide range of dispersed-phase fractions and impeller speeds. A similarity transformation of the experimental drop-size distribution is possible for most of the experiments. The drop-size-dependent coalescence frequency is obtained from an inverse problem procedure previously developed. Over the range of drop sizes encountered in our experiments, the coalescence frequency increases with increases in the size of the coalescing drops, the dispersed-phase fraction, and the impeller speed. For a dispersephase system of neutrally buoyant droplets of benzene/carbon tetrachloride in water, the coalescence frequency is K(v, v′)= 3.72 (10-3)φ1.42N20.52(v1/2+v′1/2) as a function of dispersed-phase fraction, φ, impeller speed, N2, and volumes of the coalescing droplets, v and v′. The results are compared with previous models for the coalescence frequency. Models predicting an eventual decrease in coalescence rates with drop size are disqualified unless this decrease occurs beyond the sizes observed in our experiments.

    Notes: Fluid-mediated interaction between catalyst particles alone is shown to yield several interesting and significant phenomena in a catalytic reactor that have been generally attributed in the past to direct interaction between particles. Thus, collaborative interaction between particles and the fluid may enhance or abate steady-state multiplicity, and reverse stability behavior. From the simple setting of a population of particles in a well-mixed CSTR, it is shown that the catalyst phase in a catalytic reactor is susceptible to very fine pattern formation in the face of steady-state multiplicity in single particles, which negates the usual assumption that particles exposed to a given fluid have identical states. In a reactor such variability in behavior must be accompanied by a corresponding variability in conversion and selectivity (in multireaction systems) and may have strong implications for reactor control strategies.

    Notes: Experimental studies have been performed to assess the effect of drop charge on turbulent drop coalescence. Although it is well known that surface charge can affect coalescence rates of Brownian particles in a quiescent medium, no studies have been found in the literature which explicitly examine charge effects on larger drops in turbulent media.Results demonstate that drop charge can substantially inhibit coalescence between drops in agitated dispersions. Moreover, this effect can arise solely from latent drop charges, which are attributed to the preferential adsorption of hydroxide ions onto the water-organic phase interface. Ionic strength and pH thus are shown to play a major role in determining coalescence rates between agitated drops.Results also demonstrate that reliance on measurement of average drop sizes for the purpose of determining coalescence rate dependencies is a precarious practice. Strong size-dependent effects such as obtained here have the potential to suggest erroneous conclusions when conclusions are based on measurements of average drop sizes rather than of drop-size distributions.

    Notes: A nondimensionalized plot, obtained by normalizing the drop-size distribution in the hydrocarbon phase using the Sauter mean diameter, shows a tendency towards self-preservation of the distribution. Changes of distribution in time during the course of fermentation, initial dispersed phase fraction, speed of rotation, and reactor size were taken into account. Using this self-preserving property, an empirical (single parameter) equation has been proposed for drop-size distribution. Data, available from the literature, are presented for non-biological and biological systems (gas-oil, n-hexadecane, and n-hexadecane dissolved in dewaxed gas oil as dispersed phases). The parameter, Sauter mean diameter, has been correlated with the operating conditions, and a critical review presented. Cell density was found to have significant effect on Sauter mean diameter. This effect has also been empirically explained. The possibilities of using generalized distribution in predicting the performance of fermenters is outlined.
