“…It was shown that for axial and radial flow impellers the solid-liquid mass transfer is higher than for axial flow type, and the difference is in the range of 16-41%, depends on operating conditions. A similar mass transport system which occurs in electropolishing processes was discussed by Sedahmed et al [97]. This process typically is used to metallographic examination in order to identify the microstructure of metals and to remove deformed surface zone produced, as an inspection tool reveal any microstructural defects (e.g., for nuclear equipment, high-pressure vessels and turbine blades for jet engines) and to provide a smooth, clean surface (for food, chemical, pharmaceutical and polymer industries).…”

“…In chemical, food and biochemical industries, the mechanically agitated gas-liquid reactors are used, which requires specific geometry as well as agitator operating conditions [97]. Therefore, empirical modelling of mixing systems is quite common.…”

“…This amplify in the limiting current is characteristic in part to the fact that, the rebellion hydrogen bubbles persuade a radial momentum transfer that improves the polishing rate at the anode. Also it is pointed to that the temperature raising, the limiting current enlarges owing to the anodic corrosion process catalytic effect [13]. confined IL raises in the anode uphill direction.…”

“…To increase the rate of polishing which is desirable in industry, the relative motion between the anode (workpiece) and the solution has to be increased to an extent that does not destroy the anodic diffusion layer whose presence is essential for electropolishing [4]. Previous studies on the enhancement of electropolishing include forced convection past a plate in a channel [5], cylinder rotation [6], gas sparging [7] and mechanical stirring in agitated vessels [8]. All of these techniques consume an amount of energy that increases with increasing polishing rate.…”
