Preferably, described draft tube diameter is 0.4 times of reactor inside diameter, and described guide shell height and diameter ratio are 0.93.Described jet type internal circulation biological reactor aspect ratio is preferably 2.3.(diameter of the housing D=220mm, height 510mm) is example with 20L reactor of the present invention, and draft tube diameter is with reference to the draft tube diameter D of conventional airlift fermentor
EChoice criteria, promptly the formed inside and outside sectional area of guide shell equates to be basis (velocity of flow that this moment, liquid flowed inside and outside guide shell is equal substantially) substantially.Owing to consider fluid jet nozzle is arranged on centre in the guide shell, therefore, under the shower nozzle jetting action, to disobey when liquid stream is flowed through the inner core bottom inner core sectional area size and flow through fast, and the outside that changes cylindrical shell over to is upwards mobile, in order to prolong the time (so that improving dissolved oxygen effect) that liquid stream rises, wishes its lift velocity of reduction, then must increase the sectional area of guide shell outside, be about to the inside diameter D of guide shell
ESuitably reducing, (is D with 1/2 of fermentor tank inside diameter D
E=D/2) do cold-flow model experiment draft tube diameter is optimized for benchmark (the interior sectional area of tube this moment is 1: 3 with the ratio of the annular cross-sectional area of tube outside).Guide shell maximum height L
EDetermine that must consider that liquid stream can circulate smoothly, the guide shell top must be lower than the liquid level certain distance simultaneously.The distance of choosing guide shell bottom and fermentor tank bottom is 50mm, and top and liquid level distance are 100mm, obtain the maximum height L of guide shell
E MaBe 225mm.With the volume oxygen mass transfer coefficients is optimization aim, and through cold-flow model experiment, the optimum diameter that obtains guide shell is 88mm (D
E=0.4D), optimum height 205mm (L
E/ D=0.93).
