Although radial impellers, especially the Rushton turbine, are widely used in stirred bioreactors, their applicability is limited by the high apparent viscosities of the broth. Beside the intensification of broth circulation, the energetic efficiency and the shear effects on biocatalysts must be taken into account to select the optimum impeller or impellers combination. In this context, the paper presents a comparative study on the efficiency of seven different radial impellers for simulated broth mixing in a stirred bioreactor. The analysis was made by means of the mixing time values obtained by vertically changing the position of the pH-sensor in the broths, in correlation with the energy consumption needed for a certain level of mixing time or for the uniform distribution of the mixing intensity into the bulk volume of the broths.
