Particle distribution and just-suspension speeds have been studied for SATAKE SUPERMIX® HR100 and HS604 impellers in comparison to a 45° pitched-blade turbine (4PBT) and propeller (3P) in a flat-base fully baffled cylindrical tank. The slurries were made up of 18.0 µm, 75.3 µm and 195.5 µm diameter...
