Oxygen transfer in aqueous solutions of CMC, xanthan gum, and polyacrylamide in a vessel equipped with a helical ribbon screw impeller and a multi-orifice ring sparger was studied. The K(L)a values obtained were comparable to those reported for radial flow impellers, but they are more representative of the oxygen transfer in the bulk of the liquid because of a more homogeneous mixing and absence of dead zones. Dimensionless correlations including the effect of the physical properties of the fluids, and those of operating conditions were developed. A dimensionless correlation for each fluid is proposed.
