Abstract
Photocatalysis is a non-selective advanced oxidation process (AOP) that can be effective for degradation of toxic compounds. Its main drawback however has been high processing costs compared to other AOPs. Suspended catalyst photocatalytic membrane reactors (SPMR) are promising design configuration for implementation of the technology. This work involves experimental and theoretically analysis of the hydrodynamics and energy consumption in a SPMR under crossflow and oscillatory shear conditions. An optimization approach is presented for intensification of the reactor performance that considers the coupling effects of the applied shear and the transmembrane pressure on the hydrodynamics and the specific energy consumption (kWh/m 3 ). The results showed that the optimum shear rate decreases with increasing the membrane area due to the relatively high contribution of the permeate pumping power to the energy consumption which makes the advantages of operating at higher shear rate relevant. This trend changes for larger membranes areas where the energy consumption due to higher shear outweighs the advantage of its performance enhancement resulting in increasing the system specific energy consumption. In general, the latter was found to be higher for a crossflow system compared to an oscillatory membrane design, which in addition to its smaller footprints, can make such design an attractive option for confined and/or limited space applications.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
