Mixing indices allow scale-up of stirred tank slurry reactor conditions for equivalent homogeneity

•Mixing indices may be used to reduce energy needed to achieve slurry homogeneity.•Suspension quality most consistent in smaller vessels than in larger vessels.•Higher P/V ratios are achieved in smaller vessels with similar impeller tip speeds.•Inconsistencies in mixing attributed to limited mixing...
