High-shear rotor-stator mixers are used in many technologies in the chemical, pharmaceutical, biochemical, agricultural, cosmetic, health care and food processing industries for homogenization, dispersion, emulsification, grinding, dissolving, performing chemical reactions with high selectivity, cell disruption and shear coagulation because of their ability to control the product quality. They are efficient energetically because of a focused delivery of energy to regions where high stresses are necessary. In this work performance of the rotor-stator mixers is investigated including:...
