Influence of Agitator Geometry in the Dissolution Kinetics of a Spherical Solid

An experimental study has been performed in order to establish both the effect of agitator geometry and agitation rate onthe dissolution kinetics spherical candies. To do so, constants were determined aqueous solution by way ofthe Hixson-Crowell model on three types agitators, namely, a paddle two blades, turbine agitators four andsix blades respectively. Subsequently, for fixed temperature was varied experimentally determine theactivation energy each agitator. It found that while an pre-exponential factorsof constant, activation remains constant. Finally, differences as functionof angular frequency also found.
