Clumping of reaction materials
Thread Content
The equipment uses a glass-lined reactor with a stirring speed of 87 r/min, and the stirring type is anchor-type. Zinc chloride salt is added from the top of the reactor, and stirring is used to accelerate its dissolution, resulting in spherical salts forming at the bottom of the reactor, similar to marbles. Is there any way to stir up the material at the bottom so it doesn’t settle there? At present, the reduction effect of stirring in the reactor is still quite poor. If a paddle mixer is used, the mixing speed and the length of the blades need to be designed. The reactor has a capacity of 2000L. Do any of you experts have any other solutions? From a device perspective, it’s not possible to make modifications to the process.
Stir using a two-blade or four-blade mixer
Can an emulsifier be used to solve this?
The glass-lined stirrer cannot reach the required speed, and the liquid cannot be turned axially
Is it feasible to add baffles to the reaction tank?
Could a small paddle be installed at the bottom of the shaft?
