The rotating bed reactor (RBR) is a technology for applying adsorbents and other solid materials with chemical function to process a liquid. The RBR has been proven to protect the adsorbent from mechanical degradation, making even large scale deployment of activated carbon considerably more convenient.
In this application note, the rotating bed reactor RBR S100 was used to remove the organic molecule Methylene blue from 7000 L of water. The concentration was monitored using a spectrophotometer. More than 95% of the contaminant was removed in less than 40 minutes by adsorption onto the activated carbon.
By using a rotating bed reactor, SpinChem’s customers have been able to remove unwanted organic molecules from valuable products and from waste streams. The processes have been made more cost-efficient than any alternative, and sometimes even formed the only possible solution.
