What are the Challenges in Optimizing Agitation Speed?
Optimizing agitation speed can be challenging due to the following factors:
Complex Reaction Mechanisms: Understanding the interplay between mass transfer, heat transfer, and chemical kinetics can be complex. Scale-Up Issues: Agitation speeds optimized at laboratory scale may not directly translate to industrial scale due to differences in reactor design and fluid dynamics. Mechanical Limitations: High agitation speeds can lead to mechanical wear and tear on the equipment, increasing maintenance costs.
