Abstract

Mixing time studies have been carried in a 0.3m diameter and 0.9m tall vessel equipped with three impellers. Conductivity measurement technique has been used for the measurements of mixing time. Effect of the various parameters i.e. tracer density, tracer volume, speed of rotation and impeller combination on mixing time has been studied for two impeller combinations used viz. PTDโ€PTDโ€PTD and PTDโ€PTDโ€DT. A compartment model (with one fitted parameter, the exchange flow rate Q~E~) with single compartment per agitation stage has been used to predict the conductivity response and the exchange coefficients are calculated from the model parameter. An attempt has been made to explain the experimental results on the basis of the liquid phase axial dispersion coefficient and cell residence time, calculated from the model parameter Q~E~

The performance of a multiple-rod mixing impeller was compared to that of conventional turbine impellers in viscous novobiocin beers. The advantages of the multiplerod impeller were found to be: ( I ) the power requirement was independent of changes in apparent viscosity of the fermentation beer; an
