Computed Tomography of Simulated Bubble Columns

Validating Reconstructions and Quantifying Errors

As the world increasingly decarbonises, there is an increasing pressure on chemical manufacturing to move away from fossil carbon sources. Industrial bioprocesses provide one such alternative for fossil carbon. Bubble columns as a bioreactor type are particularly well suited to s ...
The traditional Eulerian view of biomass in bioprocess modelling results in issues when modelling large-scale bioreactors in which heterogeneous conditions are common. As the field increasingly moves from “scale-up” to “scale-down” philosophy, in which such heterogeneities are in ...
