Caustic Homogenization Mixers

Our Caustic Homogenization Mixers are extensively used in the Caustic Tanks for homogenization. The velocity difference between the jet and the secondary liquid creates a mixing layer of jet boundary. This mixing layer grows in the direction of jet flow, entraining or mixing the bulk liquid into the jet. An established amount of motive liquid is pumped through a header into one or multiple jet mixers submerged within the tank depending on the tank geometry. The motive liquid is recycled from the same tank.
* The static pressure at the entrance of the nozzle is converted into kinetic energy by allowing the fluid to flow freely through a convergent type nozzle. As the operating fluid exits the nozzle, it entrains fluid from the tank through the suction chamber.
* The operating liquid along with entrained liquid then undergoes thorough mixing in the parallel section of the diffuser. The divergent portion of the diffuser helps in converting the velocity head to pressure head at the discharge end of the mixer. The discharge flow continues the mixing action of the liquid and imparts uniform mixing throughout the tank.
