Freeform Digital Design of Bespoke Flow Reactor

This collection contains data pertaining to the digital design of flow reactors for continuous flow electrochemical extraction of heavy metal ions (copper) from water. The collections contains simulation results from a combined AI (using evolutionary design) and computational fluid dynamics (using lattice Boltzmann methods) to predict shapes of flow reactors. SEM images of the 3D-Printed designs are included as well as results and images from electrochemical experiments which show improvement in performance of these designs compared to benchmarks.\nLineage: Digital workflow results from code developed within CSIRO. Combining AI, Lattice Boltzmann simulations, 3D-Printed images using SEM and electrochemical experimental results all carried out at CSIRO.
