Abstract:
Stirred bioreactors are commonly used unit operations in the pharmaceutical industry. In this study, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) was used in order to analyze the influence of the impeller configuration (Segment–Segment and Segment–Rushton impeller configurations) and the impeller rotational speed (an operational parameter) on the hydrodynamic behaviour and mixing performance of a bioreactor equipped with a double impeller. A relatively close agreement between the power values obtained from the CFD model and those measured experimentally was observed. Various parameters such as velocity

Abstract:
The fluid mixing process is a common supportive phenomenon that often occurs in a large number of industrial systems. This phenomenon is the subject of many numerical and experimental analysis. The mixing process effectiveness depends on: mixing tank construction, mixing phases viscosity, temperature, density of liquids and, what is crucial, the impeller shape. The optimal design of impeller geometry is still an open issue. In this research work, the main objective is experimental investigations of the influence of the newly constructed impeller type on the fluid flow motion phenomena and ener

Although radial impellers, especially the Rushton turbine, are widely used in stirred bioreactors, their applicability is limited by the high apparent viscosities of the broths. For optimizing mechanical mixing by selecting the appropriate impeller for a specific fermentation broth or process, the comparative analysis of the mixing efficiency, energy costs and shear effects on the biocatalysts is required. By means of this analysis, three different combinations of radial impellers for water and viscous simulated broths were selected for attaining optimum mixing in a bioreactor. The proposed im

"Fig. 12 Radial (Rushton) type impeller. blade angle, it is best to work closely with the manufacturers of the mixer to specify an optimum design for the process. The preceding discussion of axial- and radial-flow turbines has been a very cur-sory survey of what can be a very involved and detailed study. As mentioned above, a large amount of research on these types of mixers is available [13,14]. A detailed dis-cussion of this subject would be beyond the scope of this work. If a blending or sus-pension problem occurs in large production batches, consultation of the references on mixing included at the end of this chapter or, even better, consulting the experts at the major manufacturers of this type of mixer, would be the best place to start. 3. Anchor Mixers An often overlooked mixing device, which is low speed and considered low capabil-ity, is the anchor agitator, so named for its anchorlike shape, as illustrated in Fig. 13. However, this slowly moving agitator makes it possible for many dispersion and emul-sification processes to be accomplished without overshear, aeration, and heat transfer problems. The anchor agitator is a slow (up to 50 rpm) device whose sole function is to rotate the contents of a batch in a radial direction without providing any significant shear. These are high-torque devices that must be designed sturdily to withstand the forces of the high viscosities. Anchor agitators are typically designed to be able to withstand a maximum viscosity beyond which they might actually bend or break. That is, the an-chor itself is built of materials strong enough to withstand the drag of the viscous liq-uid as it passes by the mixer. In addition, the motor has to supply the very high torque requirement that arises when the anchor is stirring viscous materials. When designing the mixer it is important not to understate the viscosity. This is especially important if there is a point in the process where the anchor must be stopped. If this happens, in the case of shear thinning materials, the agitator has to start up from rest in a viscosity much higher than that normally occurring during the process. Products exhibiting pseudoplastic or Bingham plastic behavior are very difficult to move when at rest." In Pharmaceutical Dosage Forms. CRC Press, 1998. http://dx.doi.org/10.1201/9781420000955-40.
