Mixing time, power consumption, and solids concentration were measured in solid− liquid
flow in a T= 290 mm vessel stirred by a Rushton turbine (D= T/3). The influence of particle …

The precession of macroinstability (MI) vortices in stirred vessels has been investigated with
vortex tracking methodologies, and utilized to enhance mixing performance. The techniques …

A liquid crystal thermographic technique has been developed and employed to determine
the transient mixing characteristics in a stirred vessel of 100mm diameter. The …

Biotechnological processes involving the presence of microorganisms are realized by using
various types of stirred tanks or laboratory-scale dual-impeller commercial bioreactor …

The present work seeks to fully investigate, describe and characterize the distinct flow
regimes existing within a mixing vessel at various rotational speeds. This investigation is …

The need to speed up bioprocessing and to enhance process understanding of the heat
extraction process, for the recovery of periplasmic Fab'from E. coli cells, has led to the …
