About this document

Gas Dispersion in Rushton Turbine Fermenter by Angie Ramirez is a document available to read on EtoBox.

A 1.4m diameter fermenter with a 0.5m diameter Rushton impeller located 0.35m off the bottom is being stirred at 75rpm. Air is being sparged into the fermenter at 0.28m^3/min. Halfway through the process, the stirrer speed had to be reduced to 45rpm due to failing bearings in the stirrer drive.
