One-day Live Training Event on Mixing In Stirred Tanks at
New Horizons, Frankfurt, Germany. The course starts at
9:00 am on April 20, 2017.
Mixing is an important unit operation in the process
industry involving the reduction of in-homogeneity to
achieve a desired product. During scale up, technology
transfer and process optimization, mixing calculations
need to be performed. This course is designed for
chemists and chemical engineers to learn or review mixing
calculations and scale up methods. Subsequently, this
will provide an opportunity for immediate practical
application.
This course will consist of one day of instruction
covering these topics:
- Introduction to mixing in stirred tanks - we will cover
mixing technology, concepts and various impeller types
and their applications.
- Analyzing a mixing process with different methods of
analysis and introduction to correlation based analysis
and CFD analysis with design variables and power number,
flow number and tip speed.
- Scale-up rules for various processes of miscible
liquids - power dissipation, blend time, flow patterns
- Scale-up examples like scale-up of miscible liquid
mixing (batch size example), scale-up of solid-liquid,
Solids suspension (dense solids), solids draw-down
(lighter solids), scale-up of shear sensitive processes,
polymer beads example, fermentation Process (gas-liquid)
and crystallization (shear and heat transfer)
- Use of CFD to address various mixing challenges
- Hands on session with MixIT™ Enterprise Mixing Analysis
Tool - Solving various mixing problems using MixIT™
