| MATERIAL: |
Aqueous synthetic detergents, oil and powdered active anti-bacterial ingredients. |
|
PROBLEM: |
Prepare stable, fine droplet oil in water emulsions. Disperse fine powder active uniformly throughout emulsion. |
|
RESULTS: |
Recirculates aqueous phase at 10-15 gpm during initial heating. Non-aqueous phase added at 80 deg. C and recirculation continues. Produced fine droplet emulsion. Powdered active ingredients added to tank and recirculated through Dicon. |
|
AB MIXER: |
Model 3 x 1.5 toothed impeller/liner, 5 HP, 3600 RPM, 1/8" grid. Mounted below 350 gallon tank. |
| BENEFITS: |
Production rate increased 30%. Dicon capital cost versus high shear batch mixer and required tranfer pump provided 20-25% lower expenditure. Final product stable and uniform. |
