A gas-liquid stirred tank reactor (STR) has some problems, such as low mass transfer efficiency, high exhaust gas oxygen concentration, and low product conversion rate, due to limitations of stirring speed and input power. This article proposes a method to enhance the gas-liquid mass transfer in a STR using circulating jet internals. When a circulating jet is added, the average bubble size in the reactor is reduced to 1.26 mm, and the overall gas holdup is increased to 8.23%, which is an increase of 3.62 times of the original STR. The gas-liquid volumetric mass transfer coefficient is increased to 0.05556 s-1, which is 4.84 times of the original STR. The unit volume power is increased by only 1.4 times. These data provide references for the design and scale-up of new jet STRs.

The aim of this paper was to characterize and to scale-up the CNBr chemical activation of Sepharose CL-4B in a stirred tank reactor to purify the recombinant Hepatitis B surface antigen for use in vaccines. The activation quality was assessed measuring the concentration of the cyanate esters and the percentage of nitrogen in the activated matrix. The Sepharose CL-4B incorporated less than 50% of the initial CNBr amount added to the matrix, but the monoclonal antibody CB.Hep-1, used as immunoligand to purify the rHBsAg, was efficiently immobilized in a weakly activated matrix (<8 ?mol/mL of matrix). The impellent type has a significant influence on activated matrix quality. The constant power per volume unit was a proper criterion to scale-up the Sepharose CL-4B March's modified chemical activation procedure with CNBr.
