Mixing basic types

Condensation Equipment There are two basic types of condensers used for control contact and surface. In contact condensers, the gaseous stream is brought into direct contact with a cooling medium so that the vapors condense and mix with the coolant (see Fig. 25-15). The more widely used system, however, is the surface condenser (or heat exchanger), in which the vapor and the cooling medium are separated by a wall (see Fig. 25-16). Since high removal efficiencies cannot be obtained with low-condensable vapor concentrations, condensers are typically used for pretreatment prior to some other more efficient control device such as an incinerator, absorber, or adsorber. 

There are three basic types of plants for the manufacture of fine chemicals dedicated plants, multiproduct and multipurpose plants, and mixed plants. 

The three basic types of impeller which are used at high Reynolds numbers (low viscosity) are shown in Figures 10.55a, b, c. They can be classified according to the predominant direction of flow leaving the impeller. The flat-bladed (Rushton) turbines are essentially radial-flow devices, suitable for processes controlled by turbulent mixing (shear controlled processes). The propeller and pitched-bladed turbines are essentially axial-flow devices, suitable for bulk fluid mixing. 

The beneficiation of mixed lead zinc sulphide oxide ores is a complex process and is dependent on gangue composition of the ore. There are two basic types of mixed sulphide oxide ores that have been extensively studied. These include (a) ores with dolomitic and... 

Summarizing the features of the hexagonal fluoroperovskites it should be noted, that the structures of the BaTiOs- and BaRuOs-types are but different mixed forms of both, the purely cubic perovskites, e.g. CsCdFs with 3 layers in sequence ABC, and the purely hexagonal perovskites , e.g. CsNiFs with 2 layers in sequence AB. The dimensions of the c-axes are given by the number of layers and are therefore larger in the case of the mixed structures than for the basic types (e.g. CsMnFa 6 layers, CsCoFs 9 layers). 

Figure 19.16. Basic designs of electrolytic cells, (a) Basic type of two-compartment cell used when mixing of anolyte and catholyte is to be minimized the partition may be a porous diaphragm or an ion exchange membrane that allows only selected ions to pass, (b) Mercury cell for brine electrolysis. The released Na dissolves in the Hg and is withdrawn to another zone where it forms salt-free NaOH with water, (c) Monopolar electrical connections each cell is connected separately to the power supply so they are in parallel at low voltage, (d) Bipolar electrical connections 50 or more cells may be series and may require supply at several hundred volts, (e) Bipolar-connected cells for the Monsanto adiponitrile process. Spacings between electrodes and membrane are 0.8-3.2 mm. (f) New type of cell for the Monsanto adiponitrile process, without partitions the stack consists of 50-200 steel plates with 0.0-0.2 ram coating of Cd. Electrolyte velocity of l-2 m/sec sweeps out generated Oz.

NMR imaging techniques were applied to the measurements of velocity field in opaque systems such as tomato juice and paper pulp suspensions [58-60]. In both cases, the particle concentrations are sufficiently high that widely applied techniques such as hot film and laser Doppler anemometry could not be used. The velocity profile for a 6 % tomato juice slurry clearly showed a power-law behavior [58, 59]. Row NMR images for a 0.5 % wood pulp suspension provided direct visual of three basic types of shear flow plug flow, mixed flow and turbulent flow as mean flow rate was increased. Detailed analysis of flow NMR image is able to reveal the complex interaction between the microstructure of suspensions and the flow [60]. 

There continues to be major problems with coupling HPLC to FTIR (Fourier transform infrared) due to the interference caused by water. The interface is the critical component in the system [126]. The two basic types of interfaces are continuous and capture. A continuous interface has been developed that uses a liquid-liquid extraction. In this approach, the analytes are extracted from the mobile phase by mixing postcolumn with a stream of IR (infrared) transparent, water-immiscible solvent. In the ca-pure technique, the eluent is deposited on a continuously moving, IR transparent, inert substrate from which the eluent can be easily removed by evaporation. These techniques have been applied to identification of racemic precursors of diltizam, AZT derivatives, and steroids [127]. 

The metering system takes the conditioned intermediates from the supply tanks and delivers them to the mixing head at the desired rate and pressure. There are two basic types of metering systems high pressure axial or radial piston pumps, and lance displacement cylinders. The piston pumps are hydraulic pumps that have been modified to handle chemicals. They are capable of continuously metering at... 

Solid solutions Alloys whose constituents are uniformly mixed. The other basic type of alloy is the polyphase alloy in which the constituents are not homogeneous. 

System Type. The three basic types of SCF cleaning systems are the direct system, in which supercritical carbon dioxide (SCCO2) is the only cleaning solvent, the single-cycle system, in which the SCCO2 is mixed with a cosolvent and the dual-cycle system in which the parts are exposed separately to cosolvent and supercritical carbon dioxide. 

Resin. A single or mix of Type 1 strongly basic anion exchange resins selected on the basis of their proven resistance to irreversible fouling. 

In the manufacture of ferrites, the raw materials (usually oxides and carbonates) are wet mixed in ball mills. The raw materials should be suitably fine to be reactive and must not contain harmful impurities. The mix is then pre-reacted at temperatures lower than the actual firing temperature. This pretreatment provides conditions for the actual synthetic reactions whose mechanisms show considerable differences. The three following basic types can be distinguished. 

The numerous forms of two-phase flow can be divided into certain basic types, between which transition and mixed states are possible. The basic types of flow pattern in upward two-phase flow in a vertical, unheated tube are shown in Fig. 4.44. 

Two basic types of flow methods can be distinguished those with mixing and those without. The chief limitation of unmixed flow reactors is that mass transfer processes are frequently limiting and in the case of fast chemical reactions are probably always limiting. Stirred-flow reactors and fluidized bed reactors may often overcome the mass transfer limitation, and indeed these hybrid techniques may represent the best attributes of batch and flow methods. Each of these approaches i.s considered in turn. 

Erickson and Tiberghien [6] show detailed research studies concerning pupils conceptions about mixing of water. Two basic types of situation are used (1) similar amounts of water at the same temperature are mixed and (2) both similar and different amounts of water at different temperatures are mixed (see Fig. 10.2). The results are shown in two diagrams (see Fig. 10.2) In a qualitative way, many pupils at least acknowledge that the final temperature should lie somewhere between the initial temperatures , the quantitative calculations come later it is not before the age of 12 or 13 that a task like that in Fig. 4.2d is solved [6].
