Comparative analysis of mixing efficiency and distribution induced by radial impellers in bioreactors with stirred bed of immobilized cells

The influences of the main factors on the mixing efficiency and distribution for a bioreactor with stirred/mobile bed of immobilized S. cerevisiae cells in alginate (biocatalyst particles with 4, 4.6 and 5.2 mm diameters) have been comparatively analyzed for six radial impellers: a disperser sawtoot...
