Modeling of temperature gradients in packed-bed solid-state bioreactors

Study on Temperature Gradients and Protein Enrichment by <i>Aspergillus oryzae</i> in Solid-State Fermentation on Packed Bed Bioreactor Using Jowar (Sorghum) Straw as Substrate

“…The results indicate that the bed depth also affected the temperature control in PBSSB. These results are in qualitative agreement with Chen, Xu & Li [8], Fanaei & Vaziri [9], Castaneda, Rojas, Bacquet, Raimbault & Gonzalez [10] and Srinophakun & Srinophakun [11]. Chen, Xu & Li [8] developed the bioreactor for solid-state fermentation (SSF) and performed the temperature gradient studies with different bed heights.…”

“…Chen, Xu & Li [8] developed the bioreactor for solid-state fermentation (SSF) and performed the temperature gradient studies with different bed heights. Fanaei & Vaziri [9], Castaneda, Rojas, Bacquet, Raimbault & Gonzalez [10] and Srinophakun & Srinophakun [11] developed the mathematical model for packed-bed solid-state fermentation to study the effects of various design and operating variables. Tables 1 and 2 indicate the results of jowar straw samples before and after fermentation respectively.…”

Modelagem De Transferência De Calor Em Leito Fixo Colocado Em Tambor Horizontal Parcialmente Preenchido E Com Rotação Intermitente

“…A literatura fornece diversas pesquisas acerca da modelagem matemática aplicada à fermentação em estado sólido na última década, o que indica o interesse dos pesquisadores na ampliação de escala desta tecnologia ( VAN DE LAGEMAAT;PYLE, 2005;FANAEI;VAZIRI, 2009;BÜCK et al, 2015).…”

Simulation of thermal conversion of solid fuel by the discrete particle method

“…Fanaei and Vaziri [13] predicted heat transfer in a bio-reactor by a simple model that excluded mixing, as it would influence negatively the bio-material in the reactor. The bio-reactor consists of a bed of substrate supported on a perforated base plate through which saturated air containing water vapour is blown, and the reactor geometry is cylindrical.…”
