“…Mixing high viscosity non‐Newtonian fluids is often accomplished by helical ribbon and anchor impellers. Even though considerable research has been conducted in the prediction of mixing by these two impellers in various mixing systems (Bertrand et al, 1996; Chavan and Ulbrecht, 1972; Delaplace et al, 2006; Ihejirika and Ein‐Mozaffari, 2007; Niedzielska and Kuncewicz, 2005; Pedrosa and Nunhez, 2000; Peters and Smith, 1969; Prajapati and Ein‐Mozaffari, 2009; Triveni et al, 2010), information regarding their applications in anaerobic digesters is quite limited. Rivard et al (1989) developed a lab‐scale reactor for anaerobic digestion of municipal solid waste (MSW) with 21% TS operated at 37°C, and evaluated the digester performance as a function of nutrient requirements, feeding rates, pH control, and agitator rotating speed.…”

“…Most of the liquids stirred and mixed in tanks, are polymer solutions and paint mixtures, as well as mineral pulps and food pastes, which exhibit a non-Newtonian rheology [5].…”

“…Triveni et al [5] conducted a study in the heating and cooling of castor oil, liquid soap, carboxymethylcellulose solutions and calcium carbonate solutions. The heat transmission was promoted in a tank with a diameter of 0.29 m, by a single-type helical serpentine immersed in the tank, and the impellers used were an anchortype and a radial turbine.…”

“…From the various impellers available in industries, the close clearance impellers like as the anchor, Maxblend and the helical ribbon impellers are commonly used for mixing highly viscous fluids such as oils, CMC (Carboxy Methyl Cellulose) and polymer solutions. Some studies have been made to characterize the mixing in agitated tanks by helical ribbon agitators . Aubin et al .…”
