Agitator design for gas-liquid fermenters and bioreactors /

"As in all kinds of process equipment, agitators must be correctly sized to deliver the process function, while maximizing return on investment and minimizing total energy cost. In a bioreactor, agitators are one of the prime drivers for promoting the development of gas/liquid interfacial area,...
