In-line mixer for liquid-liquid and solid-liquid processes
In industries like food, chemical, and biotechnology, precise mixing of liquids and solids is critical for maintaining product quality and consistency. Engineers face challenges such as varying product viscosities and the need for stable emulsions or dispersions.
Mix liquids and solids with high precision
The LIVAK in-line mixer from Vak Kimsa is designed for mixing liquids and solids directly into a tank, offering various configurations suitable for the chemical, cosmetics, and biotechnology industries. With its industrial and sanitary finishes, the mixer includes a pressurization and lubrication circuit for the mechanical seal. It is ATEX certified under Directive 2014/34/EU, making it safe for use in potentially explosive atmospheres. The mixer is capable of handling solid concentrations up to 80% and mixing flow rates up to 90,000 liters per hour, depending on the product. It also accommodates varying viscosities – high, medium, and low. Users can benefit from the system’s ability to work in recirculation on one or several tanks, improving agitation in existing installations without modification. The LIVA K EMULSIFIER component ensures air-free emulsions with small drop sizes and high stability, making it highly efficient in reducing production and heat exchange times.
