Adsorption in multistage fluidized bed column
Adsorption process are usually operated in fixed beds. However due to its discontinuous characteristic, fixed bed adsorption leads to an insufficient utilization of the adsorbent. Moreover, a prevent clogging may cause a high product previous separation of suspended solids to pre The usage of fluidized beds provides direct product recovery without any clogging from streams containing solids like unclarified fermentation broth or waste water.
