The course will communicate principles of mixing in stirred 
tanks, provide recommendations for process design and scale-
up, plus enable participants to apply these principles and 
recommendations to their mixing processes/problems. 
Additionally the course will explain how “MixIT – an 
enterprise software to predict stirred tank performance” can 
help to facilitates knowledge management, collaboration and 
use of mixing science within a global organization to 
accelerate reactor design, process scale up, process 
optimization and troubleshooting associated with stirred 
tanks.
