Hydro-pneumatic conveying of liquid by means of an airlift pump
Airlift pumps operating in two-phase gas-liquid flow are investigated with a view to establishing an analytical technique to aid in theoretically modelling air-lift pump behaviour. Extensive work on two test facilities constructed at the University of Cape Town's Hydrotransport Research facility …

An analytical and experimental investigation of three phase flow in airlift pumps used for diamondiferous marine gravel reclamation
This dissertation covers an investigation on airlift pumps operating in three phase flow. The investigation is specifically geared towards offshore diamond reclamation and the three phases considered are air, water and marine gravels. The purpose of the research was to develop an analytical …

Photobioreactor Design for Improved Energy Efficiency of Microalgae Production
… culture circulation and gas exchange with airlift alone and no centrifugal recirculating pump. Traditional tubular PBR designs feature a compressed air supply and a centrifugal pump for culture circulation and gas exchange. Circulation and gas exchange in a closed-system PBR is necessary to …
