Abstract:
This work describes the determination of the average residence times during egg yolk – and whole liquid eggs pasteurisation in an industrial pasteurisation equipment (plate pasteuriser + tube holder). For the detection of the impulse the conductivity method was used. Conductivity was then monitored using the bridge method. In the system, the total of 3 probes were placed. To mark the particles of the flowing product, salted yolk with the content of salt of 1.3 or 1.8% was used. In addition, rheological properties of pasteurised yolk were determined at the temperatures of 5, 25, 45, and 65°C. Based on the geometry of the channels in the individual sections of the pasteurisation equipment, the character of the flow was estimated using the Re criterion and was found to be laminar in all parts of the system. The work includes the comparison of the average residence times obtained by (a) the method of volumes, (b) the analysis of the conductivity response, (c) the estimate made by using the TUPLEX software, and (d) the estimate of the peaks of the conductivity response.

Full text
Abstract:
When mixing in a tank is insufficient solid particles are known to form a concentration gradient along the height. The one-dimensional sedimentation dispersion model provides a relationship between mixing parameters and the solids concentration gradient. An investigation of the relationship between the solid mixing properties and the solids residence time distribution, as derived from the sedimentation dispersion model has been conducted. Experimental results show that the solids residence time distribution was a function of particle size and differed from that for the liquid phase. An empirical correlation for the solids Peclet number to predict the residence time distribution of the particles is proposed. A single parameter model to predict the solids residence time distribution as a function of particle size is presented. The influence of the particle concentration gradient on the mean conversion obtained in the reactor for two different cases is examined.

Abstract:
The residence time distribution was measured at ambient temperature and pressure in a tubular reactor with radial injection at very short space times (0.04-0.7 s). A technique using infrared laser absorption spectroscopy was developed and used to provide the required rapid response for concentration measurements. The equipment comprised an infrared He-Ne laser emitting at a wavelength of 3.39$ mu m$ and a lead selenide detector. Methane, which absorbs strongly at the laser wavelength, was used as the tracer. The absorption of the laser light was related to the tracer concentration by Beer-Lambert law. The laser beam passed through the diameter of the reactor at different axial locations. The residence time distributions were obtained from the response to quasi-step inputs. An axial dispersion model was used to describe the reactor.

Abstract:
Micro-reactors, enabling continuous processes at small scales, have been of growing interest due to their advantage over batch. These advantages include better scaling, as well as improved mass and heat transfer, though many new challenges arise due to the small scales involved such as non-negligible entrance effects and significant pressure drops. The flow in coils, rectangular channel serpentine plates, mix-and-reside plates, and complex liquid-liquid mixing plates was investigated and characterized using residence time distribution (RTD) tests. A pulse test was used to determine the RTD curve shape of these reactors at flowrates ranging from 20 to 100 g/min. A semi-empirical, multi-parameter model was used to describe the asymmetrical curves, while the axial dispersion model was used to describe the symmetrical ones. The Peclet number is given in function of the Reynolds number for the liquid-liquid plates that were found to be near-plug flow (Pe > 100). In a continuous mixing plate, the Pe ranged from 190 to 475 with Pe increasing as Re increased. The effect of straight channel sections in micro-reactors is also evaluated. Longer straight segments between micromixers resulted in the development of unidirectional flow and the occurrence of tailing in the RTD. Finally, the suitability of a liquid-liquid plate for a reactive liquid-solid system is evaluated. The plugging is determined visually and by measuring pressure increase; pressure started to increase after 5 minutes and the experiment had to be halted after 10 minutes due to plugging. Parallels between the particle size distribution and the residence time distribution curves are drawn. The particle size distribution of silver chloride at low flow rates is much wider than at high flowrates. The average particle size at high flowrates was also much lower (≈69nm) than at low flowrates (≈112nm).

Full text
Abstract:
Residence time distributions of multiple particles (as affected by process and system parameters) were investigated during non-Newtonian tube flow. Process parameters included flow rate, particle type, carrier fluid viscosity, and particle concentration. The system parameter of interest was the holding tube configuration. Polystyrene and acrylic particles were used as model food particles. Digital imaging analysis was used to obtain residence time data of particles. A novel type of holding tube (chaotic holding tube) was constructed. Comparisons among the straight, single helical, double helical, and chaotic holding tube were performed in terms residence time distribution (RTD) of particles. In addition, the effect of inclination angle (0 º and 45 º) of the chaotic holding tube was investigated. It was found that the narrowest RTD of particles was obtained in the single helical holding tube. RTstd in the chaotic holding tube was greater than that in the single helical holding tube, but lower than those in the straight and double helical holding tubes. The most significant process parameter affecting RTD was flow rate. The effect of flow rate was more pronounced for high density (acrylic) particles. Carrier fluid viscosity, particle type, and particle concentration did not have significant effects on the overall RTstd. Trends observed in the chaotic holding tube were similar to those observed in the single helical holding tube. However, there were some cases where use of chaotic holding tube resulted in narrower RTD of particles. Changing the inclination angle from 0 º to 45 º in the chaotic holding tube resulted in wider RTD of both types of particles.

Higgins, Philip Richard. "The characterisation of the hydrodynamic vortex separator using residence time distribution analysis." Thesis, Liverpool John Moores University, 2000. http://researchonline.ljmu.ac.uk/5534/.

Full text
Abstract:
The hydrodynamic vortex separator (HDVS) is currently employed at wastewater treatment works and in the sewerage system as a combined sewer overflow (CSO) for the separation of solids from an incoming waste stream. This project presents the first stage in developing and aiding the existing design methodology for the optimisation of kinetic processes within the HDVS. The kinetic process design methodology combines hydraulic and kinetic principles by using the true mixing regime characteristics of a system and batch reactor data to determine a kinetic processes efficiency. This project used residence time distribution (RTD) analysis to extensively characterise the mixing regime within a model and prototype HDVS. The HDVS was operated with and without a baseflow component and with and without the sludge hopper for a range of inlet flow rates and flow splits covering design flow rates for a number of existing applications. The RTD was obtained using a pulse tracer injection method and described using the complete range of data analysis techniques typical employed in RTD studies. This includes the axial dispersion model (ADM), tanks-in-series model (TISM), RTD indices and a RTD combined mathematical model. The combined model is configured to quantify the inactive flow behaviour within the HDVS i. e. stagnant and dead volumes. The HDVS has a complex imperfect plug-flow mixing regime. This non-ideal flow behaviour is associated with both dispersion and dead volumes and results in short-circuiting. At low flow rates the HDVS operating without a baseflow contains fluid elements which conduct flow slower than the mean velocity. At high flow rates the inactive flow behaviour is associated with dead volumes and subsequently short-circuiting. The flow rate at which this change in mixing characteristics occurs is termed the transition flow rate and is approximately 151/min and 901/min for the model and prototype HDVS respectively. At all flow rates above the transition flow rate the HDVS has a very stable mixing regime, which is associated with both the inactive flow behaviour and the plug-flow mixing characteristics. The ADM and TISM parameters increase as the flow rate decreases and therefore, the HDVS has improved plug-flow mixing characteristics and reduced dispersion at low flow rates. Removing the sludge hopper reduces the inactive flow behaviour and improves the plug-flow mixing characteristics. The inactive flow behaviour within the model HDVS operating with no baseflow occupies approximately 20-40% of the total volume and similarly for the prototype HDVS 5-25% and increases as the inlet flow rate increases. The inactive flow behaviour occupies a smaller fraction of the total volume and the plug-flow mixing characteristics are also improved as the HDVS is scaled-up in size. Hence, the scale-up of the HDVS will provide a mixing regime with less short-circuiting and improved plug-flow mixing characteristics and therefore, more conducive for certain kinetic processes and particularly chemical disinfection processes. The introduction of a baseflow component alters the total mixing regime within the HDVS. The baseflow component introduces an element of plug-flow mixing and subsequently the total plug-flow mixing characteristics of the HDVS operating with a baseflow component are greater than the HDVS operating without a baseflow. The baseflow component plug-flow mixing characteristics increase and the overflowcomponent decrease as the inlet flow rate increases. Short-circuiting of the baseflow and overflow component occurs as the inlet flow rate decreasesa nd increasesr espectively. Hence, there are different mixing regimes within the HDVS associated with the overflow and baseflow component. The HDVS operating with a baseflow component has improved plug-flow mixing characteristics when the sludge hopper is included. This project was also extended to include an experimental kinetic process analysis, by investigating the first-order decomposition of hydrogen peroxide (H202) using catalase. This was undertaken to compare the actual kinetic process performance within the HDVS to that estimated using the RTD. The H202 decomposition results showed that the design of the HDVS for kinetic processes can be achieved using only the RTD and relevant batch reactor data. This enables the HDVS to be optimised for kinetic process applications and eliminates the need for costly and time consuming pilot trials. The characterisation of the HDVS using RTD analysis creates scope for significant future research. This includes: alternative experimental RTD techniques, development of the RTD combined mathematical model to include a baseflow component and kinetic process principles, extensive kinetic process batch reactor investigations, application of both the hydraulic and kinetic data into chemical reactor design computer software and finally the scaling of the HDVS using the RTD and therefore the kinetic process optimisation. This work is a proactive response by practitioners and Hydro International Plc to pressure from the regulators and EU Directives, placing emphasis on the use of sophisticated treatment processes based on good scientific principles, to meet current and future stringent water quality standards.

Abstract:
The potential for improved selectivity has made column flotation cells a popular choice for upgrading fine coal. Unfortunately, recent production data from full-scale column plants indicate that many industrial installations have failed to meet original expectations in terms of clean coal recovery. Theoretical studies performed using a simple dispersion model showed that this inherent shortcoming could be largely minimized by reconfiguring the columns to operate in series as a cell-to-cell circuit. Follow-up field data showed that this low-cost modification increased flotation recovery as predicted by the dispersion model. This study presents the key findings obtained from the field investigation and provides generic guidelines for designing multi-stage column circuits.

Abstract:
The importance of the residence time distribution (RTD) in polymer extrusion has been recognized for along time, however, it is very difficult to measure. In this project, an optical on-line RTD measurement technique based on extrudate transmittance changes was investigated. A He-Ne laser beam was the light source, and carbon black was the tracer and detection was performed by a photomultiplier.
The RTD of a ZSK-30 twin-screw extruder was measured with and without an in-line rheometer installed. Various operating conditions were used to examine their effects on the RTD curve. It was found that the mean residence time of the system decreased linearly with screw speed and exponentially with the feed rate. The temperature effect was minuscule. The in-line rheometer increased the mean residence time of the system by 80%.

Abstract:
Results are presented from sets of field and laboratory experiments conducted to measure and quantify the Hydraulic Residence Time Distribution in treatment ponds containing vegetation. The field measurements were taken in the Lyby field pond (Sweden) with complementary experiments on a distorted, laboratory scale model pond designed and built in the University of Warwick’s engineering laboratory. Rhodamine WT Dye tracer experiments were used in both the Lyby field pond and the distorted physical scale model to investigate vegetation and discharge affects on HRTD characteristics and the technique of PIV (Particle Image Velocimetry) was used in the distorted physical scale model to investigate how surface flow profiles were affected by different vegetation and discharge configurations. The results show that the distorted physical scale pond did not reflect the HRTD characteristics of the field site, with the actual residence time, (tm), for the distorted physical scale pond ranging from 85 % to 125% of its nominal residence time. For the distorted scale model, pond vegetation and discharge did not affect the relative HRTD centroid, em, or the actual residence time, tm. This finding is attributed to the unique pond geography and associated aspect ratios However, flow rates did have a significant effect on the HRTD e0 (time of first dye arrival at the outlet) and ep (time of peak dye concentration). Changes in vegetation were found to have little effect on e0 and ep. For the laboratory pond, vegetation had a significant control on the surface flow field whereas, flow rates did not – the latter suggests that surface flow fields are not representative of the internal flow field in different layers of the pond. The experiments demonstrate that the specific shape of the distorted physical scale pond in this study enables optimal actual resident times to be achieved over a wide range of vegetation and flow rate configurations. If full scale field ponds based upon this design give the same stable centroid results, then this would be a substantial breakthrough in pond design, which would aid the design and management of pond treatment and allow more robust optimisation of treatment efficiency.

Abstract:
Images were so bound up with the concept of mortality, and such potent reminders of the unceasing and irreversible onslaught of time, that they soon came to play a critical role as markers along the key junctures of both individual and family lifespans in nineteenth-century America. They commemorated births, deaths, and everything in between. The residents of a far-flung city like San Francisco were all the more reliant on two-dimensional substitutes for their absent kin. Painted portraits and miniatures had previously served similar functions as documentation of significant events or achievements, but only as mediated by an artist’s hand, with a limited replication and distribution capacity, and primarily for a small upper echelon of the population. It was fitting that photography, the most democratic of all media, should preserve memories of loved ones after their demise—death being among the most democratic of life experiences.

Abstract:
Sand produced along with well-production fluids accumulates in the surface facilities over time, taking valuable space, while the sand carried with the fluids damages downstream equipment. Thus, sand is separated from the fluid in the sand traps and separators and removed during periodic clean-ups. But at high sand productions, the probability of unscheduled facilities shutdowns increases. Such extreme production conditions can be handled by strategic planning and optimal design of the separator network to enable maximum sand separation at minimal equipment cost while ensuring the accumulation extent is within tolerable limits. This paper develops a mathematical model to optimize the separator network design to maximize sand separation while the sand accumulation extent and total equipment cost are minimal. The optimization model is formulated using multi-objective mixed-integer nonlinear programming (MINLP). The capabilities of the developed model to assist sand management in the separator network are demonstrated with a case study of optimizing the network for two wells producing sand particles of different sizes. A residence time distribution-based model is used to predict sand settling behavior. The developed Pareto Front shows the trade-off between the increase in total sand accumulation rate and total equipment cost for an increase in the fraction of sand settled.

Residence time including mean residence time and residence time distribution (RTD) is a very important parameter to characterize a mixing system. In practice, tracer study has been widely used in experiments to obtain residence time distribution. There are several numerical approaches available to compute the average residence time and the residence time distribution of a system. This paper attempts to summarize those available approaches through an example.

Abstract:
Current hemodialysis techniques rely on hollow-fiber tubes in a tube-and-shell operating approach. The method works satisfactorily; but, technological advantages of this method are already exhausted for a long time. Additional improvements are needed which could provide a way towards improving patient health and quality of life. Patients with renal failure undergo intense filtration sessions approximately three times a week leaving them fatigued. Large oscillations in concentration of various solutes within blood cause detrimental consequences on the overall health of patients.

Abstract:
Homogeneous mixing of liquids in microchannels is well known and characterized for simple channel geometries, such as Y- or T-shaped mixers. Also meandering mixing channels, in which Dean vortices are generated, are often employed to achieve rapid mixing of liquids. A CFD study was performed to increase the mixing performance in the contacting and first mixing element. Dean vortices in the inlet channels increase the mixing quality for Re numbers in the range from 20 to 200 together with S-shaped mixing elements. Mixing quality is significantly increased by a factor of 2 to more than 5 compared to a T-shaped mixer. The residence time distribution is a further important parameter, which is investigated in this contribution.

Abstract:
The residence time distribution (RTD) in a pilot plant spray dryer was characterised for two kinds of air distributors (centrifugal and parallel flow) and for different atomizing air pressures. To determine the RTD - and the RTD of different particle size fractions - the particle concentration and size at the dryer outlet was measured continuously using a particle counter. Results were modelled using the Bodenstein number and the CSTR in series model. An increasing nozzle pressure leads to a decrease in mean residence time and a more narrow distribution. The influence of nozzle pressure is more pronounced than of air distributor and particle size fraction. Keywords: Residence time distribution; Particle size; Bodenstein number modelling; Nozzle influence; Mechanism of air distribution

Abstract:
For many decades in Tunisia, there has been a robust link between natural resource management and contentious national and local politics. These disputes manifest in the form of protests, sit-ins, the disruption of production and distribution and legal suits on the one hand, and corporate and government response using coercive and concessionary measures on the other. Residents of resource-rich areas and their allies protest the inequitable distribution of their local natural wealth and the degradation of their health, land, water, soil and air. They contest a dynamic that tends to bring greater benefit to Tunisia’s coastal metropolitan areas. Natural resource exploitation is also a source of livelihoods and the contentious politics around them have, at times, led to somewhat more equitable relationships. The most important actors in these contentious politics include citizens, activists, local NGOs, local and national government, international commercial interests, international NGOs and multilateral organisations. These politics fit into wider and very longstanding patterns of wealth distribution in Tunisia and were part of the popular alienation that drove the uprising of 2011. In many ways, the dynamic of the contentious politics is fundamentally unchanged since prior to the uprising and protests have taken place within the same month of writing of this paper. Looking onto this scene, commentators use the frame of margins versus centre (‘marginalization’), and also apply the lens of labour versus capital. If this latter lens is applied, not only is there continuity from prior to 2011, there is continuity with the colonial era when natural resource extraction was first industrialised and internationalised. In these ways, the management of Tunisia’s natural wealth is a significant part of the country’s serious political and economic challenges, making it a major factor in the street politics unfolding at the time of writing.

Full text
Abstract:
A growing body of scholarly literature has attempted to measure and value unpaid care work in various countries, but perhaps only the government statistical agencies in the United States and the United Kingdom have seriously undertaken periodic and systematic measures of the time spent on unpaid work at the national level, and partially incorporated those values into their gross domestic product(GDP). One country that has been ahead of its time on aspects of societal welfare measurement is Bhutan, which produces the Gross National Happiness (GNH) Index. However, until the first GNH Survey, in 2008, Bhutan did not have any sense of the size and distribution of unpaid work, despite its strong societal norms about the value of volunteering and community work. This paper is the first to estimate the value of unpaid care work in Bhutan. It shows the pros and cons of various approaches and their equivalent measures of unpaid care work as a share of GDP. As with similar studies on the topic, this paper also finds that women spend more than twice as much time as men performing unpaid care work, regardless of their income, age, residency, or number of people in the household. The paper also provides recommendations for improving the measurement of unpaid care work in Bhutan.
