{wiki=Rushton_turbine}
A Rushton turbine is a type of impeller used in mixing and agitation applications, particularly in bioreactors and chemical engineering processes. It is characterized by its flat, disc-like shape that has several radial blades attached to it, typically with a high aspect ratio. The design of the Rushton turbine facilitates effective mixing and aeration of liquids, making it ideal for applications involving the mixing of liquids and gas phases.
