Line Blender - Continuous Flow Mixer
Line Blenders, sometimes called "in line mixers", provide mixing action inside a pipe.
FEATURES
Line Blenders are typically used for premix or fast reaction applications and a variety of blending applications in chemical processing, food processing, petroleum refining, pulp & paper processing and waste water treatment
- Mix continuously with a tank
- Supplied complete with motor and impeller(s)
- Excellent for continuous process applications
- Provide almost instantaneous mixing
- More space-efficient than conventional tank/mixer systems
- Economical to operate and maintain
Typical Applications
Chemical Processing - Used for all blending requirements, disperse cakes from filter and centrifuges. Mix components quickly for reactions and mass transfer. Provide additional shear in re-circulation lines. Premix for in-tank installations.
Food Processing - Blend syrups and sugar solutions with water. Mix caustic solution with vegetable oils for refinement.
Petroleum Refining - Used to treat petroleum products and organic chemicals. Blending lube and fuel oil components with additives. Contacting crude oil with fresh water for desalting.
High Viscosity Blending - Blend additives with a high viscosity material ie: adding a catalyst to rubber polymerization streams.
Pulp and Paper Service - Control consistency by blending stocks from different sources. Mixing additives, color, chemicals and dilution water into paper stock.
Water and Waste Treatment - Flash-mix water treating chemicals into wastewater stream.
