Wei, P. (author), Uijttewaal, W.S.J. (author), Spanjers, H. (author), van Lier, J.B. (author), de Kreuk, M.K. (author)Gas-mixing is commonly applied in anaerobic digesters, yet the resulting flow and hydraulic mixing are difficult to evaluate because of limited full-scale experimental data and uncertainties in integrating sludge rheological data. This study used computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to assess the impact of treated sludge rheology on flow and...journal article 2023

Wei, P. (author), Mudde, R.F. (author), Uijttewaal, W.S.J. (author), Spanjers, H. (author), van Lier, J.B. (author), de Kreuk, M.K. (author)This study aimed to characterise the gas-liquid flow and mixing behaviour in a gas-mixed anaerobic digester by improving phase interaction modelling using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). A 2D axisymmetric model validated with experimental data was set up using an Eulerian-Eulerian method. Uncertainty factors, including bubble size, phase...journal article 2019
