Continuous stirring of the monomer happens in this type of polymerization. Very specific designs of reactors are used depending upon the viscosity of the polymer. In some applications, the completed polymer melt is transferred from the reactor using a gear pump or applying moderate external pressure.
A kneader reactor (or kneading reactor) is a device used for mixing and kneading substances with high viscosity. Many industries, such as the food processing, utilize kneader reactors to produce goods, as for example, polymers or chewing gum. Although the machine has existed for decades, kneader reactors are only recently gaining popularity in ...
Subsequently, LIST Kneader Reactor technology showed that it could effectively combine multiple phases and process steps — reaction, crystallization, drying, melting, mixing, kneading and evaporation — in a single machine. It was this thinking that led List to develop the Mixing Kneader Technology, a new generation of processing technology.
Mixing of liquids occurs frequently in process engineering. The nature of liquids to blend determines the equipment used. Single-phase blending tends to involve low-shear, high-flow mixers to cause liquid engulfment, while multi-phase mixing generally requires the use of high-shear, low-flow mixers to create droplets of one liquid in laminar, turbulent or transitional flow regimes, depending ...
Ebullated bed reactors are a type of fluidized bed reactor that utilizes ebullition, or bubbling, to achieve appropriate distribution of reactants and catalysts.The ebullated-bed technology utilizes a three-phase reactor (liquid, vapor, and catalyst), and is most applicable for exothermic reactions and for feedstocks which are difficult to process in fixed-bed or plug flow reactors due to high ...
Diagram of the production of a plasma disc using water-cooled electrodes and an electromagnet One type of reactor used at Rjukan from 1912 to 1940 now located in a park in Rjukan Reactor Building II behind the Såheim Hydroelectric Power Station in which 35 Birkeland-Eyde reactors were installed requiring 3000 kW each
The Experimental Breeder Reactor II. Experimental Breeder Reactor-II (EBR-II) was a sodium-cooled fast reactor designed, built and operated by Argonne National Laboratory at the National Reactor Testing Station in Idaho. It was shut down in 1994. Custody of the reactor was transferred to Idaho National Laboratory after its founding in 2005.
Clay body being extruded from a de-airing pug. A pugmill, pug mill, or commonly just pug, is a machine in which clay or other materials are extruded in a plastic state or a similar machine for the trituration of ore. [1]
