Equipment mixing

In this section, mixing processes will be considered under three separate headings gases, liquids and solids. [Pg.468]

This is perhaps the most commonly used method of mixing liquids, and essentially there are three elements in such devices. [Pg.301]

These are often vertically mounted cylindrical tanks, up to 10 m in diameter, which typically are filled to a depth equal to about one diameter, although in some gas-liquid contacting systems tall vessels are used and the liquid depth is up to abcHit three tank diameters multiple impellers fitted on a single shaft are then frequently used. The base of the tanks may be flat, dished, or conical, or specially contoured, depending upon factors such as ease of emptying, or the need to suspend solids, etc., and so on. [Pg.302]

For the batch mixing of viscous pastes and doughs using ribbon impellers and Z-blade mixers, the tanks may be mounted horizontally. In such units, the working volume of pastes and doughs is often relatively small, and the mixing blades are massive in constmction, [Pg.302]

In comparing propellers and turbines, the following features may be noted  [Pg.304]

Anchors, helical ribbons and screws, are generally used for high viscosity liquids. The anchor and ribbon are arranged with a close clearance at the vessel wall, whereas the helical screw has a smaller diameter and is often used inside a draft tube to promote fluid motion throughout the vessel. Helical ribbons or interrupted ribbons are often used in horizontally mounted cylindrical vessels, [Pg.305]

A rotating propeller traces out a helix in the fluid, from which a full revolution moves the liquid longitudinally to a fixed distance, depending on its pitch, i.e., the ratio of this distance to the propeller diameter. Pitch may be computed from the following formula  [Pg.436]

Propeller mixers are used for mixing liquids with viscosities up to 2,000 cp. They are suitable for the formation of low-viscosity emulsions, for dissolving applications and for liquid-phase chemical reactions. For suspensions, the upper limit of particle size is 0.1 to 0.5 mm, with a maximum dry residue of 10%. [Pg.437]

Propeller mixers are unsuitable for suspending rapid settling substances and for the absorption of gases. Propellers are designed on the basis of data obtained from properly executed modeling experiments. [Pg.438]

Ribbon blenders are essentially self-contained mixers. They are employed in a variety of solid-liquid, solid-solid, and liquid-liquid blending applications in the chemical process industries. Examples include plastics, pigments, pharmaceuticals, specialty chemicals, confectionary. [Pg.441]

The reader may consult the reference section of this chapter for citations dealing with these types of agitator configurations and specific applications. [Pg.442]

The rolls in a roll-mill are rotated at constant speeds, 15-20 rpm, with the back roll running a little faster. A gap between the rolls is adjustable. The rolls may be heated or cooled with a liquid circulating inside. The entire mixing operation is performed through repeated charging and discharging of rubber. The additives are charged while the rubber is banded onto a roll. [Pg.16]


For more complex network designs, especially those involving many constraints, mixed equipment specifications, etc., design methods based on the optimization of a reducible structure can be used. [Pg.397]

Process and Equipment. Rigid polyurethane foam processes use the same high or low pressure pumping, metering, and mixing equipment as earher described for flexible foams. Subsequent handling of the mixture is deterrnined by the end product desired. [Pg.418]

Alginate impression materials are chemically reactive mixtures. AH factors that influence reaction rates are, therefore, important in the use of these materials, ie, correct proportioning temperature of the water, powder, and mixing equipment and spatulation rate and duration. [Pg.491]

Blends with PVC. Nitrile mbber may be blended with poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) by the polymer producer by two different techniques (1) blending of NBR latex with PVC latex followed by co-coagulation and drying, or (2) physically mixing the soHd NBR and PVC powder in mixing equipment such as an internal mixer. NBR—PVC polymer blends are well known for the good ozone resistance that is imparted by the PVC. [Pg.522]

Polymers. Studies to determine possible exposure of workers to residual epichl orohydrin and ethylene oxide monomers in the polymers have been done. Tests of warehouse air where Hydrin H and Hydrin C are stored showed epichl orohydrin levels below 0.5 ppm. Air samples taken above laboratory mixing equipment (Banbury mixer and 6" x 12" mill) when compounds of Hydrin H or C were mixed gave epichl orohydrin levels below detectable limits, and ethylene oxide levels less than 0.2 ppm, well below permissible exposure limits (46). A subacute vapor inhalation toxicity study in which animals were exposed to emission products from compounded Parel 58 suggests that no significant health effects would be expected in workers periodically exposed to these vapors (47). [Pg.557]

Fluid Velocities in Mixing Equipment Fluid velocities have been measured for various turbines in baffled and unbaffled vessels. Typical data are summarized in Uhl and Gray, op. cit., vol. I, chap. 4. Velocity data have been used for calculating impeller discharge and circulation rates but are not employed directly in the design of mixing equipment. [Pg.1629]

Selection of Equipment The principal factors which influence mixing-equipment choice are (1) the process requirements, (2) the flow properties of the process fluids, (3) equipment costs, and (4) construction materials required. [Pg.1630]

There are no satisfactory specific guides for selecting mixing equipment because the ranges of application of the various types of equipment overlap and the effects or flow properties on process performance have not been adequately defined. Nevertheless, what is frequently done in selec ting equipment is described in the following paragraphs. [Pg.1631]

The shear rate available from various types of mixing and dispersion devices is known approximately and also the range of viscosities in which they can operate. This makes the selection of the mixing equipment subject to calculation of the shear stress required for the viscosity to be used. [Pg.1634]

Mixing of sohds is an important unit operation in the production of solids with consistent properties. A number of properties of the solid particles influence the mixing process, the design, and selection of mixing equipment. The second subsection elaborates on the theoiy of mixing, types of mixing equipment, and their operation. [Pg.1755]

AIChE Standard Testing Procedure for Solids Mixing Equipment, American Institute of Chemical Engineers, New York. [Pg.1762]

A look at these properties for the ingredients to be mixed is a first step toward selecting mixing equipment. [Pg.1763]

A standard testing procedure for solids-mixing equipment is available (Ref. 1). This contains details and references pertaining to sampling from solids mixtures for both batch and continuous mixing. [Pg.1763]

Performance CViaracteristics Before selecting soUds-mixing equipment, a careful study should be made of various performance charac teristics. These are given here. [Pg.1766]

Polyethylene can be compounded on any of the standard types of mixing equipment used for visco-elastic materials. For laboratory purposes a two-roll mill is suitable operating temperatures varying from about 90°C to about 140°C according to the type of polymer. On the industrial scale, compounding is undertaken either in internal mixers, or more particularly, extrusion compounders. [Pg.232]
