ABSTRACT Leachate has complex characteristics, and it is commonly processed biologically in the Leachate Treatment Plant (IPL) in Indonesia. However, as the landfill ages, the leachate becomes less biodegradable. An appropriate technique is needed to treat leachate at IPL, and one of the promising methods is advanced oxidation with O3/H2O2. This study examined the effect of air flow rate on the concentration of residual ozone (KSO) and its efficiency to remove organic compounds using the O3/H2O2 process. Leachate samples were collected as grab samples from TPA Sarimukti Bandung. As much as 1 L of leachate samples were placed in an ozone contactor equipped with a filter disc with a pore size of 100-160 µm. The dose of H2O2 was continuously added to 1.197 g/L. Compressor was used to provide airflow with variations of 2, 3, and 4 L/min. Dissolved Oxygen (DO) was measured to determine the concentration of residual ozone (KSO) and validated by examining KSO measurements with the Indigo colorimetric method. A strong relationship between KSO and DO (R2 = 0.99) was observed at an airflow rate of 4 L/min. The highest ozone mass transfer coefficient (KLa,O3) was recorded at a 4 L/minute flow rate with 0.0022 min-1 at 27 °C.  The best removal efficiency has occurred at the fastest air flow rate (4 L/min) with COD, and UV254 removal was 88.89% and 14.87%, respectively.

Namun demikian, seiring dengan pertambahan umur urugan sampah, lindi semakin tidak biodegradable. Teknik pengolahan tepat diperlukan untuk mengolah lindi di IPL. Salah satu teknik yang sering digunakan adalah oksidasi lanjut dengan O3/H2O2 dengan mentransferkan gas ozon ke dalam air lindi yang diukur sebagai Konsentrasi Sisa Ozon (KSO) dan menambahkan H2O2 untuk meningkatkan pembentukan OH? di dalam air.  Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh laju aliran udara terhadap KSO serta pengaruhnya terhadap efisiensi penyisihan senyawa organik pada proses O3/H2O2. Sampel lindi diambil secara grab sampling dari TPA Sarimukti Bandung. Sebanyak 1 L sampel ditempatkan pada kontaktor ozon yang dilengkapi filter disc dengan pori berukuran 100-160µm. Dosis H2O2 yang diberikan tetap sebesar 1,197 g/L. Udara dialirkan dengan air compressor dengan variasi debit udara 2, 3, dan 4 L/menit. Pada penelitian ini, pengukuran Dissolved Oxygen (DO) digunakan sebagai pendekatan untuk mengukur KSO. Validasi dilakukan dengan meneliti hubungan antara KSO dan DO dan pengukuran KSO dilakukan dengan metode indigo colorimetric method.  Hasil penelitian menunjukkan KSO dan DO memiliki hubungan yang kuat (R2 = 0,99) pada variasi aliran udara 4 L/menit. Laju aliran udara tercepat terjadi ketika nilai koefisien transfer masa ozon (KLa,O3) mencapai nilai tertinggi (0,0022 menit-1) pada suhu 27 oC. Hasil penelitian membuktikan efisiensi penyisihan COD (88,89%) dan UV254 (14,87%) tertinggi terjadi pada laju aliran udara tercepat selama 180 menit.

In electrical vehicles, replacing positive temperature coefficient heater as heat source with an air source heat pump could improve the driving range and decrease energy consumption in cold climate. Design of the heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning module for heat pump system has a significant influence on its performance in each working mode. A newly designed heat pump heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning module was introduced in this paper. The air flow characteristics of the heat pump heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning module in four working modes were analyzed, and the air flow rate and wind resistance were obtained by numerical simulation. Experiments were also conducted for validating its airflow rate in each working mode. Results of these experiments show that some unfavorable phenomena such as flow maldistribution and vortex inside the heat pump heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning module exist, which could lead to insufficient utilization of the heat exchange area of heat exchangers and the generation of aerodynamic noise. Furthermore, the air flow rate of the original heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning module was also measured for comparison, and the designed heat pump heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning module shows nearly 15–20% decrease in each working mode.

In Fluidized Bed Catalytic Cracking (FCC) process, hydrocarbon feed undergoes vapour phase cracking in presence of hot regenerated catalyst to produce valuable products like LPG, Gasoline and Diesel. FCC feed injection system is most critical hardware component of FCC unit in order to get desired product yield by minimizing the undesirable dry gas and coke yield. Typically, twin-fluid nozzles (hydrocarbon and stream) are used to atomize the feed. In the present study, a twin-fluid injector, with an internal impactor to minimize the droplet size and velocity, is designed, developed and characterized. The performance of the feeding injector was evaluated using water and air as operating fluids and the droplet size and velocity were measured 150 mm downstream of the injector tip using a PDPA system for different water and air flow rates. The average droplet size (D32) showed an increase while the droplet velocity remained almost constant with the increase in the liquid flow rate for a given flow rate of air, consistent with the increase in droplet size with decreasing air-liquid ratio for twin–fluid atomizers. But, for a given liquid flow rate, the droplet SMD decreased and the droplet velocity increased with increasing airflow rate, which can be attributed to the increase in overall kinetic energy due to the increase in air flow rate. The flow rate of liquid was seen to be independent of air flow rate unlike conventional twin-fluid atomizers. The droplet size was found to be a function of ALR and the local volume flux of the droplets was found to be a function of the liquid flow rate.

Ammonium feedback control is increasingly used to determine the dissolved oxygen (DO) set-point in aerated activated sludge processes for nitrogen removal. This study compares proportional-integral (PI) ammonium feedback control with a DO profile created from a mathematical minimisation of the daily air flow rate. All simulated scenarios are set to reach the same treatment level of ammonium, based on a daily average concentration. The influent includes daily variations only and the model has three aerated zones. Comparisons are made at different plant loads and DO concentrations, and the placement of the ammonium sensor is investigated. The results show that ammonium PI control can achieve the best performance if the DO set-point is limited at a maximum value and with little integral action in the controller. Compared with constant DO control the best-performing ammonium controller can achieve 1–3.5% savings in the air flow rate, while the optimal solution can achieve a 3–7% saving. Energy savings are larger when operating at higher DO concentrations.

Collector Efficiency

An experimental rig was set up to test the thermal performance of a solar air heating system based on an unglazed transpired collector of 2.5 m2. The experiment was carried out at Harbin Institute of Technology in the city of Harbin, which is located in northeastern China, at latitude 45°41′ N and longitude 126°37′ E. The tests were spread over a number of days, in which the 4-day experimental data within the period were selected as the sample for analysis. Experimental results show that solar collector’s surface temperature and exit air temperature increase with increasing solar irradiation. The influence of ambient temperature on surface temperature and exit temperature is negligible. Temperature rise decreases with increasing air flow rate, while collector efficiency increases with increasing air flow rate. For an air flow rate of 100 m3/h in Test 1, the average air temperature rise and collector efficiency were 28.86°C and 72% respectively; for an air flow rate of 235 m3/h in Test 2, the average air temperature rise and collector efficiency were 11.52°C and 78% respectively. Higher airflow rate tends to operate the collector at lower surface temperature, which results in lower overall heat losses from the collector to the surroundings, therefore increasing airflow rate reduces air temperature rise and enhances the collector efficiency. The average efficiency of the experimental solar air heating system in the 4-day experiment period was 72%, 78%, 61%, and 72% respectively, which are higher than most conventional glazed flat-plate solar air collectors. With better coordination with architectural design at early stage in a project, this building-integrated solar air heating system can be both aesthetically and technically viable.

Abstract PEMFC needs to be maintained at an appropriate temperature and humidity in a rapidly changing environment for automobile applications. In this study, a pseudo-multi-dimensional dynamic model for predicting the heat and mass transfer performance of a plate-and-frame membrane humidifier for PEMFC vehicles is developed. Based on the developed model, the variations in the temperature and relative humidity at the dry air outlet are investigated according to the air flow acceleration. Moreover, the dynamic response is analyzed as a function of the amplitude and period of the sinusoidal air flow rate at actual operating conditions. The effects of heat transfer on the dynamic response are more dominant than those of mass transfer. The settling time of the temperature and relative humidity at the dry air outlet decrease with the increase in air flow acceleration. In addition, the variations in the temperature and relative humidity at the dry air outlet increase with the increases in the amplitude and period of the sinusoidal air flow rate.

Biodrying is the process to reduce moisture from municipal solid waste (MSW) by using the heat from aerobic bio-degradation. The typical process parameters are aeration, temperature during the process, initial moisture of waste, and temperature and relative humidity of the inlet air. This study aimed to investigate the effects of air flow rate and the supplied direct airflow duration on the rotary biodrying process for drying the high initial moisture content households solid waste, allowing satisfied energy content biofuel. The MSW from the Karai subdistric, kratumban samutsakorn province were used as a substrate. Biodrying process was performed in 8 trails with various air volumes from 0.20 to 0.45 m3/hr.-kg dry weight (dw). It was found that the increased airflow rate was not linearly proportional to the weight loss. The hydrolytic stage period (2 days) before supplied high air flow in aerobic stage could more increase moisture removal efficiency for rotary biodrying than increase double air flow rate only. The end product was sufficiently homogeneous and heating values 18,024 – 24,260 kJ/kg.
