Investigation of convection and diffusion during biodiesel production in packed membrane reactor using 3D simulation

The 3D simulation of convection and diffusion phenomena within a ceramic membrane during transesterification reaction was the aim of this study. The ceramic membrane was a tubular micro porous TiO2/Al2O3 packed with the heterogeneous catalyst. The Navier–Stokes, Brinkman and Stephan–Maxwell equation...
