Rotary jet mixer for efficient liquid, gas, and powder mixing
Achieve seamless integration and efficiency in liquid, gas, and powder processing with innovative rotary jet technology, expertly designed to optimize mixing, dispersion, deaeration, and tank cleaning while significantly reducing energy consumption and costs in your production line.
Mixes, Dispenses, and Cleans in Industrial Applications
The Rotary Jet Mixer from Alfa Laval excels in mixing, dispersion, and cleaning applications across various industries such as dairy, food, beverage, and pharmaceuticals. Utilizing patented rotary jet head technology, this mixer performs efficient blending by rotating nozzles within tanks of up to 800,000 liters, enabling rapid and uniform mixing of liquids, gases, and powders. It supports multiple processes, including aeration, deaeration, and carbonation, while doubling as a reliable Cleaning-in-Place (CIP) system. The mixer’s design ensures energy and cost efficiency, with placements that reduce structural loads on tanks and ease retrofitting in existing setups. Energy-efficient operation is bolstered by optional skid-mounted pump units, which streamline installation and reduce the need for separate equipment. Whether it’s mixing craft beer, fruit-flavored drinks, or biopharmaceutical solutions, the Rotary Jet Mixer offers unmatched versatility and process integration, ensuring robust performance in challenging conditions.
