    Abstract: The liquid solid fluidized beds have been usually used in catalytic cracking, ion exchange, crystallization, and particle classification. Fluidized bed column has investigated experimentally and numerically. A numerical investigation has been done by using computational fluid dynamic software ANSYS Fluent 15.0. In this study, a spherical stainless ... Show More

    Abstract: This study is concerned mainly with high noise produced by automated olive mills and its negative impact on human health. This study looks at what caused this problem such as the application of building codes concerning user exposure to noise and protective measures for workers. Long working period exposure to high noise, particularly mill workers,... Show More
