Objective
The main aims of the OPTIMUM project are the improvement of European process industries competitiveness by shortening process development time, enhancement of product quality, waste reduction and usage of existing plants up to full capacity. To meet these aims for widely used agitated multi-phase processes, the lack of insight into the hydrodynamic phenomena involved and their coupling with chemistry and heat & mass transfer must be overcome. Thus, an experience based mixer-selection tool and two numerical approaches for multi-phase flow calculations shall be developed to a new design strategy by bringing together European industrial and scientific knowledge. The strategy will be checked and applied to relevant industrial mass production processes.
