The decomposition of hydrogen peroxide was used for supplementing the oxygen during batch xanthan fermentations in a bubble column bioreactor in order to escape the oxygen transfer limitation that occurred at the high viscosity of culture broths. The xanthan production, however, was inhibited reversibly by dosing hydrogen peroxide. On the other hand, fluidized particles of glass beads with 8 mm diameter led to high gas-liquid oxygen transfer rates in three-phase fluidized beds, which resulted in higher space-time yields of the xanthan production compared to in the bubble column bioreactors.

A three-dimensional model has been developed for pulverized coal combusters and gasifiers. Coal devolatilization, heterogeneous char oxidation, gas particle interchange, radiation, gas phase oxidation, primary and secondary stream mixing, and heat losses are considered. A finite difference method was used to solve the ordinary non-linear differential equations. The effects of primary and secondary stream flow ratio and coal particle size are investigated.

실험실 규모의 유동층 반응기(0.8 m H $\times$ 0.08 m I.D.) 에서 반응온도(700 -80$0^{\circ}C$), 유동화속도(1.5 - 3 Umf)의 영향에 따른 생성물의 수율, 생성가스의 조성, 생성가스의 발열량의 변화를 질소 분위기하에서 조사하였다. 반응온도를 700 에서 850 $^{\circ}C$로 증가시킬 때 촤의 수율은 36% 정도로 온도에 따라 큰 차이를 보이지 않은 반면 가스의 수율은 온도가 증가함에 따라 22 %에서 800 $^{\circ}C$까지 30%가량 증가하다 그 이상의 온도에서는 증가하지 않았다. 또한 수소와 메탄은 온도가 증가함에 따라 그 생성량이 증가하는 반면 에탄과 프로펜은 감소하였으며 단위 부피당 가스의 발열량은 감소하였다.

In the present study, we propose new type of a spinning disk reactor(SDR) with high performance and very convenient structure to make a large scale equipment from lab-scale than the conventional one. A split-disk experimental equipment, based on new type of spinning disk reactor, has been developed to generate an energy to break a bulk of injected gas into smaller gas bubble. Several cases of an experimental observation make it to confirm that a bulk of injecting gas could be continuously break into smaller bubbles. It shows the feasibility to make a scale-up of SDR by using the characteristic of Taylor-Proudman column in rotating flow. A theoretical study on single phase liquid flow is given to predict a liquid induced shear stress, which make the present study to be self-containment.

In this study, hydrodynamics and reaction characteristic of K-based solid sorbents for $CO_2$ capture were investigated using a continuous system composed of two bubbling fluidized-bed reactors(1.2 m tall bed with 0.11 m i.d.). Potassium-based dry sorbents manufactured by the Korea Electric Power Research Institute were used, which were composed of $K_2CO_3$ of 35% for $CO_2$ absorption and supporters of 65% for mechanical strength. The continuous system consists of two bubbling fluidized-bed reactors, solid injection nozzle, riser, chiller, analyzer and heater for regeneration reaction. The minimum fluidizing velocity of the continuous system was 0.0088 m/s and the solid circulation rate measured was $10.3kg/m^2{\cdot}s$ at 1.05 m/s velocity of the solid injection nozzle. The $CO_2$ concentration of the simulated gas was about 10 vol% in dry basis. Reaction temperature in carbonator and regenerator were maintained about $70^{\circ}C$ and $200^{\circ}C$, respectively. Differential pressures, which were maintained in carbonator and regenerator, were about $415mmH_2O$ and $350mmH_2O$, respectively. In order to find out reaction characteristics of dry sorbents, several experiments were performed according to various experimental conditions such as $H_2O$ content(7.28~19.66%) in feed gas, velocity (0.053~0.103 m/s) of simulated gas, temperature($60{\sim}80^{\circ}C$) of a carbonator, temperature($150{\sim}200^{\circ}C$) of a regenerator and solid circulation rate($7.0{\sim}10.3kg/m^2{\cdot}s$). The respective data of operating variables were saved and analyzed after maintaining one hour in a stable manner. As a result of continuous operation, $CO_2$ removal tended to increase by increasing $H_2O$ content in feed gas, temperature of a regenerator and solid circulation rate and to decrease by increasing temperature of a carbonator and gas velocity in a carbonator.

3 dimensional turbine exhaust gas flow was simplified to an axisymmetrical flow and calculated with detailed chemistry models. GRI 35 species-217 reaction step model and simplified 11 species 15 reaction model was applied to the secondary reaction of the turbine exhaust gas and compared. All the model captured the secondary combustion on the base region, and the temperature was 600K higher than that without turbine exhaust gas. This means the local temperature of the base can be higher in the case of real 3 dimensional flow. The simplified model show the similar results to the GRI detailed chemistry model although the former affected the engine plume structure slightly.

The computations of chemically reacting laminar and turbulent flows are performed using the preconditioned Navier-Stokes solver coupled with turbulent transport and multi-species equations. A low-Reynolds number $k-\varepsilon$ turbulence model proposed by Chien is used. The presence of the turbulent kinetic energy tenn in the momentum equation can materially affect the overall stability of the fluids-turbulence system. Because of this coupling effect, a fully coupled formulation is desirable and this approach is taken in the present study. Choi and Merkle's preconditioning technique is used to overcome the convergence difficulties occurred at low speed flows. The numerical scheme used for the present study is based on the implicit upwind ADI algorithm and is validated through the comparisons of computational and experimental results for laminar methane-air diffusion flame and $ H_2/O_2$ reacting turbulent shear flow. Preconditioning formulation shows better convergence characteristics than that of non-preconditioned system by approximately five times as much.

In this paper, a model is developed to simulate carbon/carbon composite fabrication using chemical vapor infiltration, considering density and porosity change in the preform and multi-step hydrocarbons reactions. The model considers the preform as a porous medium whose diffusion and flow properties changes due to the porosity. To verify the theoretical model, two numerical analyses were performed for the case that the flow inside the preform is zero and the case that the flow inside the preform is calculated by fluid mechanics. The numerical results showed good agreement with the experimental data.
