    Notes: The competition between drying and reactions in a liquid coating containing precursors to a random network polymer can give rise to a variety of drying phenomena. Solidification, or gelation, of the polymer may occur before, after, or during the removal of solvents from the coating. Rates of drying and reaction are probed by solving the equations of mass transfer by diffusion along with chemical reaction in one dimension. Solutions to this system of equations are obtained by Galerkin's method with finite-element basis functions and entail large-scale computation. Skinning, or solidification at the surface of the coating while the bulk is still liquid, occurs in thick coatings when the diffusional resistance to drying is significant, that is, at high mass-transfer coefficients. Homogeneous solidification occurs in thin coatings at low mass-transfer coefficients. Drying regime maps represent these solidification phenomena as regions in parameter space.

    Notes: The crystallization of phenanthrene from toluene with carbon dioxide as the antisolvent gas is described. In the GAS process, a pressurized gas is dissolved into a liquid solvent, where it causes a volumetric expansion and lowers the solubility of the solute. Theoretical models are presented for the liquid-phase expansion and the solubility as a function of pressure and temperature. The Nývlt theory for batch crystallization is adapted to predict the pressure profile in the crystallizer needed to maintain a constant supersaturation and growth rate. Generation of seeds is accomplished via a pressure pulse at the saturation pressure. The average particle size of the phenanthrene could be varied from 160 to 540 μm. Creation of seeds doubles the particle size and reduces the coefficient of variation significantly. The residual amount of toluene in the crystals without treatment is approximately 70 ppm. The particles are agglomerates of phenanthrene crystals.

    Notes: The frequency response method measuring the temperature and pressure of an adsorbent sample determines the mass- and heat-transfer kinetics in adsorbents, especially in zeolites. The temperature of the sample (large crystals or monolayers of pellets) is measured by infrared detection. The main aspects of the in-phase and out-of-phase functions as given by an analytical bidispersed model are described. They depend on characteristic times related to kinetic paprameters. Experimental results on adsorption of water on NaX zeolite (crystals or pellets) show that this method allows heat transfer to be very clearly delineated from mass-transfer modes and the separation of different mass-transfer modes. For a bidispersed sample, macro- and microporous mass-transfer parameters may be obtained with the same sample. Results on a contaminated 5A zeolite-propane system show the presence of mass-transfer resistance at the pellet surface. The infrared temperature measurement associated with the frequency response appears to be powerful in determining kinetic adsorption, and gives more information than the pressure measurement.

    Notes: Most advanced control applications rely on good dynamic process models. The performance of the control system depends on the accuracy of the model used. Typically, such models are developed by conducting off-line identification experiments on the process. These identification experiments often result in input-output data with small output signal-to-noise ratio, and using these data results in inaccurate model parameter estimates. Prefilters are used to separate useful information from the noise in the input-output data and to improve parameter estimates. A systematic design procedure for selecting a prefilter using discrete wavelet transforms is presented. The design procedure provides explicit information on the compromises in prefilter design, interpreted in terms of parameter variance and bias. The prefilter design procedure is then applied to identify a second-order output error model.

    Notes: The formation of a filter cake during mechanical dewatering (filtration and expression) of sludge is studied using one-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) imaging of porosity profiles. The experiments clearly showed the formation of a porosity gradient during filtration and the disappearing of this gradient during expression, forming a cake with a uniform porosity. This technique makes it possible to investigate the material behavior of the porous medium, which is needed before any model calculations can be performed. The results indicate that NMR imaging is useful in nondestructive monitoring of the filtration and expression process of sludge.

    Notes: Diffusion of carbon dioxide through silicone-polycarbonate membranes containing oriented mica flakes is proportional to the square of the volume fraction of the flakes, to the square of the aspect ratio, and to the square of the cosine of the angle at which the flakes are oriented. These experiments are consistent with Monte Carlo simulations. The simulations allow investigation of more complex geometries, including other flake orientations and polydisperse flake sizes.

    Notes: Liquid-solid fluidization characteristics of irregularly shaped Biobone particles were studied in a fluidized bioreactor column 2.35 m high and 0.1 m dia. The wet biobone particles had a density of 1,890 kg/m3. Two size ranges were studied: 1.70-2.36 mm and 1.25-2.36 mm. The Biobone is a natural cheap material composed of collagen, which is a strong protein structure, embedded with microcrystals of hydroxyapatite and calcium phosphate, and it is an excellent matrix of commercial importance used for the immobilization of enzymes, whole cells and other biocatalysts. Fluidization characteristics of Biobone particles, which include measurements of pressure drops, holdups, minimum fluidization velocities, particle entrainment, and residence time distributions at different water superficial velocities, are reported. Because of the highly irregular shape of Biobone particles, new fluidization behavior was observed, which was much different from the fluidization behavior of spherical particles reported in the literature. A new channeling index, Ic, is proposed to quantify the channeling characteristics of fluidized Biobone particles, and a new parameter, α, was developed to distinguish the transition between fixed and fluidized states of the Biobone particles.

    Notes: Experiments conducted quantify the macroscopic hydrodynamic characteristics of various scale 2-D bubble columns, which include dispersed and coalesced bubble regimes characterized by two flow conditions (4- and 3-region flow) with coherent flow structures. Hydrodynamic behavior is analyzed based on flow visualization and a particle image velocimetry (PIV) system. Columns operated in the 4-region flow condition comprise descending, vortical, fast bubble and central plume regions. The fast bubble flow region moves in a wavelike manner, and thus the flow in the vicinity of this region is characterized macroscopically in terms of wave properties. In columns greater than 20 cm in width, the transition from the dispersed bubble flow regime to the 4- and then to 3-region flow in the coalesced bubble regime occurs progressively with gas velocities at 1 and 3 cm/s, respectively. The demarcation of flow regimes is directly related to measurable coherent flow structures. The instantaneous and time-averaged liquid velocity and holdup profiles provided by the PIV system are presented in light of the macroscopic flow structure in various 2-D bubble columns. Numerical simulations demonstrate that the volume of fluid method can provide the time-dependent behavior of dispersed bubbling flows and account for the coupling effects of pressure field and the liquid velocity on the bubble motion. Comparison of computational results with PIV results for two different bubble injector arrangements is satisfactory.

    Notes: Mass transport of n-heptane, n-nonane, and n-dodecane in zeolite T was studied using a gravimetric uptake technique. The sigmoidal shape of the uptake curves indicated the existence of a nondiffusional resistance in the transport process. To compute the transport parameters, an approach based on the temporal moments of the uptake curves was developed. A model involving an external resistance dependent on the local slope of the sorption isotherm best represented the data. No evidence of the “window effect” reported by Gorring was found. The measured diffusivities decrease with chain length, while the activation energies remain essentially constant. Both resistances (diffusional and nondiffusional) depend strongly on lattice loading, and their relative contributions for the transport time change as saturation is approached.
