The parallel-competing iodide-iodate reaction scheme was used to investigate the micromixing efficiency in an aerated stirred tank of 0.30 m diameter agitated by a half elliptical blade disk turbine. The mean specific energy dissipation rate  P  m  ranged from 0.5 to 2.2 W/kg, while the superficial gas velocity  V  S  ranged from 0.015 to 0.047 m/s. Four sub-surface feed positions were considered. When the tank is fed just under the liquid surface or in the near-wall region, the micromixing efficiency can be enhanced by introducing gases with superficial gas velocities higher than 0.031 m/s. The effects of gas on the micromixing performance become complicated, while the tank is fed in the impeller discharging region. The increase of gas flow rate does not always have good effects on the micromixing performance. Moreover, the way to feed sulfuric acid can strongly affect the efficiency of the reaction scheme. For a single liquid phase, the micromixing time  t  m  according to the incorporation model varies from 5 × 10 −3  to 3 × 10 −2  s. The dimensionless local specific energy dissipation rate  Φ  near the liquid surface is almost independent of  P  m , while  Φ  in the impeller discharging area decreases with increasing  P  m .
