Investigation of the mixing in apparatuses for the biosynthesis of antibiotics

  • Published:
Pharmaceutical Chemistry Journal Aims and scope

Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The effect of the geometrical and technical parameters on the mixing intensity in fermenters of different capacity was examined.

  2. 2.

    The time of complete mixing is used as a criterion of the intensity of mixing.

  3. 3.

    An empirical equation for τmix as a function of the main parameters determining this quantity was obtained by mathematically evaluating the experimental data.

  4. 4.

    A method of scaling based on keeping the time of complete mixing constant is suggested.
