We prove lower bounds to the energy dissipation rate (Lyapunov exponent) of advection-diffusion equations driven by a stochastic velocity fields, as well as for the linearisation of stochastic Navier-Stokes. This provides a first quantitative lower bound to the conjectured Batchelor scale. The proof is based on the study of spectral median dynamics, and suitable stochastic estimates.
