    Investigation of Mass Transfer of Ozone in Jet Loop Reactor

    Cengiz, Ibrahim; Değermenci, Nejdet; Yildiz, Ergun; Barlak, Melahat Semin

    Mass transfer of ozone in a jet loop reactor was investigated in this study. Different parameters such as ozone gas concentration, gas flow rate, circulation flow rate, and spray nozzle diameter were examined for their effect on mass transfer. In experiments with ozone gas concentrations ranging from 3.83 to 17.1 g/m3, the KLa values remained unchanged, with an average of 28.7 ± 2.2 h−1. As the ozone gas concentration increased, the saturation values of ozone in the liquid phase also increased. Experiments were carried out with gas flow rates ranging from 50 to 250 L/h in the jet loop reactor, and increasing gas flow rates increased the KLa value up to five times. When the effect of the liquid circulation flow rate was examined for a spray nozzle diameter of 15.5 mm, increasing the flow rate from 40 L/min to 80 L/min increased the KLa value by approximately 41%. However, the power consumed per reactor volume for this process increased 8 times and reached 2.65 kW/m3. KLa values in the JLR vary between 6.1 and 37.3 h−1 depending on operating parameters and it has been concluded that it performs well compared to its counterparts.

    Comparison of phenol removal with ozonation in jet loop reactor and bubble column

    Barlak, Melahat Semin; Degermenci, Nejdet; Cengiz, Ibrahim; Ucun Özel, Handan; Yildiz, Ergun

    This study aimed to remove phenol with ozonation in a jet loop reactor (JLR) and a bubble column (BC). In the first stage of the study, the mass transfer properties of JLR were determined and superiority over BC reactors were shown, and in the second stage, these reactors were used in phenol removal studies. At the same conditions, the volumetric mass transfer coefficient of JLR was 0.540 min-1, while this value was determined as 0.246 min-1 in the BC reactor. In phenol removal, the effects of initial phenol concentration, ozone dosage and pH on phenol and chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal were determined for both JLR and BC. While the pseudo-first rate constant for phenol removal in JLR at 221 mg/min ozone dosage was 0.1756 min-1, this value was only calculated as 0.1157 min-1 in the BC reactor. As a result, it has been shown that JLRs can achieve higher ozone gas transfer with lower energy consumption and perform more effective phenol and COD removal than BC reactors, especially at low pH and high ozone dosages.

    Performance investigation of a jet loop membrane bioreactor for the treatment of an actual olive mill wastewater

    Değermenci, Nejdet; Cengiz, İbrahim; Yildiz, Ergun; Nuhoglu, Alper

    In this study, following the pre-treatment of olive mill wastewater (OMW), its treatment in a jet loop membrane bioreactor (JLMBR) was investigated. Among the pre-treatment options, the configuration composed of physical settling, cartridge filter and ceramic membrane showed the best performance in terms of investigated parameters. For the JLMBR that was fed by pretreated OMW, up to 93 and 87% removal efficiencies were achieved for the chemical oxygen demand (COD) and total phenol, respectively, at volumetric organic load (VOL) of 17.8 kg COD/m3 day. The calculated specific oxygen uptake rate (SOUR) values were in the range 7.7–34.7 g O2/kg MLVSS h. When even hydraulic retention times (HRT) values decreased by a factor of 1:24, system performance in terms of COD and total phenol removal remained almost stable. Decreasing the sludge retention time (SRT) to three days made considerable perturbations for the system performance, increasing the effluent COD and total phenol values in 900 and 80 mg/L, respectively. The JLMBR showed a high overall performance for the treatment of an actual OMW under the evaluated operational conditions.
