Extracted text: An anaerobic biofuel production process is carried out in a 10,000-L stirred tank with a diameter of 2 m. In order to ensure proper mixing, agitation will be provided using a marine propeller at an agitation rate of 100 rpm. Assume the impeller diam- eter is half of the tank diameter. Note: With a marine impeller, when the impeller Reynolds number is greater than 3x103, the power number has a value of 1.0. What is the power of the motor that is required to accomplish this? You can assume the medium has the properties of water.
