During operation, CIM subjects powder and liquid streams to intense agitation and turbulence, facilitated by centrifugal force. This process breaks down powder particles or disperses them evenly in the liquid, ensuring thorough mixing and dissolution.
Compared to traditional methods like batch mixing in tanks, CIM offers numerous advantages. These include continuous operation, faster mixing times, lower energy consumption, improved product consistency, and simplified maintenance thanks to its compact and user-friendly design.
Dec’s Centrifugal Inline Mixer is particularly suitable for reactor charging applications by offering a cutting-edge solution that allows for the continuous charging of vessels with both powder and liquid substances simultaneously. Dust generation during the charging process has long been a challenge. CIM resolves this issue by offering a pre-mix solution that ensures powdery substances to be fully mixed with the liquid before entering the vessel thus preventing material loss that otherwise may stick to walls. With reduced cleaning efforts and high automation capabilities, CIM allows for seamless and uninterrupted operation.
