✦ Synopsis

A~tract--A system of parallel-competing reactions producing iodine was developed to study partial segregation in stirred tanks. The experimental results, obtained in 1 and 20 litre stirred tanks, are interpreted by the incorporation model, relating the micromixedness ratio, a, to the ratio of the reaction time to micromixing time. The model being simple, the determination of the micromixing time can thus be used easily.
