Effect of the chemical nature of fixed-bed reactor support materials on bioreactor performance and biomass accumulation

This study investigated the effect, on reactor performance and biomass retention inside the bed, of the material used to make the supports of anaerobic fixed-bed reactors. Three inert supports of similar shape but made of three different materials polyvinyl chloride, polypropylene, high-density poly...
