Nonlinear, multicomponent, mass transport in porous media

TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider multicomponent mass transport in porous media for non-dilute solutions, which is described by coupled, nonlinear transport equations that must be spatially smoothed in order to be useful.

On the mechanism of immobilized glucose oxidase deactivation by hydrogen peroxide.

TL;DR: The result of experiments in a fixed‐bed reactor containing glucose oxidase immobilized on a nonporous support and conducted in the absence of diffusional limitations are reported, showing that poisoning by product hydrogen peroxide resulted in a minimum in enzyme activity in the interior of the bed, well away from the ends.

Jet loop reactors as a versatile reactor set up - Intensifying catalytic reactions: A review

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors convey a thorough overview about the jet loop reactor technique and elucide the operation principle of the reactor type, with particular focus on the enhancement of catalytic reactions subdivided in homogenously, heterogeneously and biocatalyzed conversions.

Modelling of a falling thin film deposited photocatalytic step reactor for water purification: Pesticide treatment

TL;DR: In this paper, the degradation of metolachlor and chlortoluron in a falling film closed loop step photoreactor was modeled using an equivalent intermediate (EI) formed by the photo-oxidation of the initial compound to reproduce the competitive effect of the unknown by-products.

The Definition and Measurement of Some Characteristics of Mixtures

TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown that the important features of such mixtures can be expressed by two statistically defined quantities, the scale and the intensity of segregation, and methods of measuring these are suggested.
