Transport-kinetic interactions

A perennial problem in multiphase reactors is scale-up, that is, how to achieve the desired results in a large-scale reactor based on the observations made in the laboratory unit, which remains elusive due to complexities associated with transport-kinetic coupling [14]. The success of scale-up of trickle-bed reactors is based on the ability to understand and quantify the transport-kinetic interactions at the particle scale level (or single eddy scale), the interphase transport at the particle and reactor scales, and the flow pattern of each phase and phase contacting pattern and their changes with the changes in reactor scale and operating conditions [1]. [Pg.108]

Characteristically, the mechanisms formulated for azide decompositions involve [693,717] exciton formation and/or the participation of mobile electrons, positive holes and interstitial ions. Information concerning the energy requirements for the production, mobility and other relevant properties of these lattice imperfections can often be obtained from spectral data and electrical measurements. The interpretation of decomposition kinetics has often been profitably considered with reference to rates of photolysis. Accordingly, proposed reaction mechanisms have included consideration of trapping, transportation and interactions between possible energetic participants, and the steps involved can be characterized in greater detail than has been found possible in the decompositions of most other types of solids. [Pg.165]

NO 3-Reducing. Fig. 9.15 shows data on groundwater below agricultural areas. The sharp decrease of 02 and NO3 at the redox cline indicate that the kinetics of the reduction processes are fast compared to the downward water transport rate. Postma et al., 1991 suggest that pyrite, present in small amounts is the main electron donor for NO3 reduction (note the increase of SOJ immediately below the oxic anoxic boundary). Since NO3 cannot kinetically interact sufficiently fast with pyrite a more involved mechanism must mediate the electron transfer. Based on the mechanism for pyrite oxidation discussed in Chapter 9.4 one could postulate a pyrite oxidation by Fe(III) that forms surface complexes with the disulfide of the pyrite (Fig. 9.1, formula VI) subsequent to the oxidation of the pyrite, the Fe(II) formed is oxidized direct or indirect (microbial mediation) by NO3. For the role of Fe(II)/Fe(III) as a redox buffer in groundwater see Grenthe et al. (1992). [Pg.334]

Dungan et al. [186] have measured the interfacial mass transfer coefficients for the transfer of proteins (a-chymotrypsin and cytochrome C) between a bulk aqueous phase and a reverse micellar phase using a stirred diffusion cell and showed that charge interactions play a dominant role in the interfacial forward transport kinetics. The flux of protein across the bulk interface separating an aqueous buffered solution and a reverse micellar phase was measured for the purpose. Kinetic parameters for the transfer of proteins to or from a reverse micellar solution were determined at a given salt concentration, pH, and stirring... [Pg.152]

The transport of thermal energy can be broken down into one or more of three mechanisms conduction--heat transfer via atomic vibrations in solids or kinetic interaction amongst atoms in gases1 convection - - heat rapidly removed from a surface by a mobile fluid or gas and radiation—heat transferred through a vacuum by electromagnetic waves. The discussion will begin with brief explanations of each. These concepts are important background in the optical measurement of temperature (optical pyrometry) and in experimental measurement of the thermally conductive behavior of materials. [Pg.199]

For transporters, relatively low protein expression level and limited transport capacity makes for nonlinear, enzyme-like transport kinetics that is, the transport rate saturates with increasing substrate concentration. This phenomenon is the basis for the competitive interactions generally found for chemicals that are handled by one or more common transporters this is usually manifest as inhibition of the transport of one chemical by a structural analog. The extent to which these competitive interactions are important depends on the concentrations of the chemicals involved, their relative affinities for the common transporter, and their phar-macological/toxicological profiles (effects, effective concentrations, therapeutic index). Competition for transport is discussed below in the context of drug-drug interactions. [Pg.276]

It is impossible to understand catalyst deactivation without knowing something about the interactions of reaction and mass transport kinetics. [Pg.69]

Peak photocurrents excited In a polymer of bis ( -toluene-sulfonate) of 2,4-hexadlyne-l,6-dlol (PTS) by N2-laser pulses vary superquadratically with electric field. The ratio ip(E)/((i(E), where ()i denotes the carrier generation efficiency, increases linearly with field. This indicates that on a 10 ns scale the carrier drift velocity is a linear function of E. Information on carrier transport kinetics in the time domain of barrier controlled motion is inferred from the rise time of photocurrents excited by rectangular pulses of A88 nm light. The intensity dependence of the rate constant for carrier relaxation indicates efficient interaction between barrier-localized carriers and chain excitons promoting barrier crossing. [Pg.218]

In order to handle separate yet interacting processes in fractures and matrix, the dual permeability method has been adopted, such that each grid block is divided into matrix and fracture continua, characterized by their own pressure, temperature, liquid saturation, water and gas chemistry, and mineralogy. Simulations of THC processes include coupling between heat, water, and vapor flow aqueous and gaseous species transport kinetic and equilibrium mineral-water reactions and feedback of mineral... [Pg.348]

Illumination inhibits respiratory electron transport in the photosynthetic bacterium Rhodobacter sphaeroides [1,2]. It is generally accepted that this is caused by an increase in the transmembrane electrochemical potential difference [2], although there is some evidence for a kinetic interaction via those components of the respiratory and photosynthetic electron transport chains which are common to them both [3]. [Pg.2822]
