Problems solved by technology

However, installing wire mesh or horizontal sieve plate in the riser will reduce the effective range of operating parameters of the airlift reactor. When the airflow rate is too high, it is easy to form an air block under the wire mesh or horizontal sieve plate, which is not conducive to Efficient mass transfer in gas-liquid two-phase
Furthermore, when wire mesh or horizontal sieve plate is installed, it is not easy to carry out the cleaning operation of the reactor, thus affecting the actual industrial application of wire mesh or horizontal sieve plate device in airlift reactor

Abstract

The invention discloses an airlift reactor having a spiral porous sieve plate. The reactor includes a reaction tank body. A flow guide cylinder and a gas distributor are arranged in the reaction tank body. The gas distributor is disposed under a raising section of the flow guide cylinder. A spiral porous sieve plate is arranged in the raising section of the flow guide cylinder. The body of the spiral porous sieve plate is in a spirally raising shape, so that a part of two / three-phased flow in the raising section is guided. There are a plurality of sieve pores in the body of the spiral porous sieve plate, so that the rest of the two / three-phased flow in the raising section is subjected to flow guiding and bubble breaking. The airlift reactor considers both macroscope mixing and microscope mixing, wherein the liquid is driven by ejected gas to flow cyclically, so that raising large bubbles are broken into small bubbles. The reactor can effectively inhibit aggregation of bubbles, increases gas holdup, and increases volume mass transfer coefficient.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the fields of chemical engineering, biological engineering and environmental engineering, in particular to an airlift reactor with a spiral porous sieve plate. Background technique [0002] Gas-liquid two-phase dispersion and mixing are widely used in process units such as ventilation fermentation, oxidation reaction, hydrogenation reaction, biological aeration, plant cell and algae cell photoreaction. At present, the devices that can realize gas-liquid two-phase mixing and dispersion mainly include: (1) bubble column reactor; (2) airlift reactor; (3) stirred tank reactor; (4) mixing system based on rotating nozzle . [0003] Since the 1970s, many engineers began to study bubble column reactors. The bubble column is a tower reactor in which a gas distributor is installed at the bottom of the reactor, and compressed air is injected from small holes to disperse the gas in the liquid for mass transfer and heat transfer. With it...
