For Logistics of Static Mixers

A static mixer is a significantly precision device. That is engineered to continuously mix fluids without any moving components.  They can use static mixers to mix two liquids, gas streams, and disperse gas into a liquid.

The Chemical Industry

Companies that convert raw materials such as oil, natural gas, air, water, metals, and minerals into products. Thus, they make up the chemical industry.  We see these products are in virtually every aspect of our lives. Detergents, soaps, perfumes are in fact just a few examples. There is overlap between the chemical industry and the plastics industry.  Hence, many companies produce plastic in addition to chemicals.

The chemical industry comprises approximately 15% of the U.S. manufacturing economic sector.

Types of Static Mixers

• Inline Static Mixer – For one thing, it is efficient without moving parts. They enclose the elements in a pipe or tubing. Thus, they give the required energy for the mixing process.
• Triple Action Static Mixer – Komax is the only developer of this static mixer. It delivers the highest level of mixing through its triple-action feature.  It provides three types of mixing.  They are two-by-two divisions, cross current mixing, and counter-rotating vortices and back-mixing.  This mixer completes the job in a shorter amount of time.
• Inline A Series – A distinctive flow straightener is built into each mixer.  In order to remove any downstream centrifugal effects.
• Inline M Series – Designed to use where additives to the main pipeline flow have already been presented upstream of the mixer.

The Static Mixer for the Chemical Industry

The chemical industry has specific needs.  This static mixer is able to handle corrosive chemicals and additives.  While still delivering reliable results. Chemical plants were finding that the chemicals were damaging traditional static mixers.  In that case, the job was not being done effectively. The Teflon lined static mixer is a durable and truly efficient mixer.

They build these static mixers out of carbon steel, 316 stainless steel, PVC, or fiberglass.  They line the static mixers with Teflon to specifically give the protection.  Building them to last and then withstands the aggressive chemicals.

The Benefits of Motionless Static Mixers                               

There are many reasons that industries are going with static mixers. For example:

• Highly efficient mixing
• Same temperature and velocity profile in the tank
• No moving parts for maintenance
• Available in a multitude of sizes
• Longevity
• Reduced process time

Komax is the leader in advanced inline static mixing.  With cutting-edge technology and a range of static mixers to fit any needs.  If your needs require a specific feature or size in a static mixer, KOMAX can customize it.  With over 100,000 installations worldwide.  Surely, they can provide cost-effective solutions specifically to the chemical industry.
