Problems solved by technology

[0003] The pumpability of existing inline mixers, especially existing inline high shear mixers, decreases significantly as the viscosity of the liquid increases
In particular, if its pump performance is based on the centrifugal principle, its pumping ability tends to be completely lost at viscosities above 1000cP
Today, this limits the use of inline mixers to mixing applications for relatively low viscosity fluids

Embodiment Construction

[0028] From Figure 1a Initially, a portion of a liquid handling system 10a is shown. The parts shown can be included in a much larger processing system including various liquid handling components such as heaters, homogenizers, separators, filters etc. to be able to completely Or partially handle hygienic liquid products. An example of a liquid handling system 10a for use with the present invention is a liquid food processing system capable of handling various liquid food products such as milk, juice, still drinks, ice cream, yogurt, and the like. However, liquid handling systems for use with the present invention may also include systems for handling and processing chemical, pharmaceutical and / or cosmetic liquids.

[0029] The portion shown includes a batch tank 20 and a mixer 100 fluidly connected to the batch tank. Accordingly, the liquid to be mixed is circulated through the mixer 100 disposed outside the batch tank 20 for supplying and storing a large volume of mixed l...

Abstract

A liquid processing mixer is provided, comprising a mixing unit (112) and a de- aeration vessel (106), said mixing unit (112) being separated from said de-aeration vessel (106) and in fluid connection with said de-aeration vessel (106), and wherein said liquid processing mixer (100) further comprises at least one additive inlet (114, 16) arranged between said de-aeration vessel (106) and a high shear mixing device (130) of said mixing unit (112) for introducing said additive downstream of said de- aeration vessel (106).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to mixers for mixing liquids with liquid, gaseous and / or solid additives. More specifically, the present invention relates not only to mixers for handling hygienic substances, such as liquid food or cosmetics, but also to methods for mixing such hygienic substances with various additives. Background technique [0002] In liquid handling industries such as food processing, mixers are widely used in order to provide efficient mixing of liquids with solid and / or gaseous components. In this technical field, commercially available mixers are generally classified as i) batch mixers or ii) inline mixers. Batch mixers typically operate by circulating the media to be mixed in a tank, and batch mixers are often the preferred choice for highly viscous fluids. Inline mixers typically operate in various ways that circulate fluid around the outside of the tank to continuously mix the liquids. Inline mixers are often preferred over ba...
