Abstract EN
Simulation of fluidized bed reactor (FBR) was accomplished for treating wastewater using Fenton reaction, which is an advanced oxidation process (AOP).
The simulation was performed to determine characteristics of FBR performance, concentration profile of the contaminants, and various prominent hydrodynamic properties (e.g., Reynolds number, velocity, and pressure) in the reactor.
Simulation was implemented for 2.8 L working volume using hydrodynamic correlations, continuous equation, and simplified kinetic information for phenols degradation as a model.
The simulation shows that, by using Fe3+ and Fe2+ mixtures as catalyst, TOC degradation up to 45% was achieved for contaminant range of 40–90 mg/L within 60 min.
The concentration profiles and hydrodynamic characteristics were also generated.
A subsequent scale-up study was also conducted using similitude method.
The analysis shows that up to 10 L working volume, the models developed are applicable.
The study proves that, using appropriate modeling and simulation, data can be predicted for designing and operating FBR for wastewater treatment.
