Effect of impeller geometry on gas-liquid mass transfer coefficients in filamentous suspensions
Volumetric gas-liquid mass transfer coefficients were measured in suspensions of cellulose fibers with concentrations ranging from 0 to 20 g/L. The mass transfer coefficients were measured using the dynamic me...

The effects of agitation and aeration on the production of gluconic acid byAspergillus niger
The effects of agitation and aeration in the production of gluconic acid byAspergillus niger from a glucose medium were investigated. Experiments were conducted at aeration rates of 5.0 and 10.0 L/min. Four diffe...

Steady-state shear characteristics ofAspergillus niger broths
It can be difficult to obtain reliable rheological data for filamentous fermentation broths using conventional instruments. One common approach is to measure the torque drawn by an impeller rotating in the sus...
