Mixing Tanks

Mixing tanks are essential in various industries, including food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and chemical processing. They ensure proper blending, dissolution, heat transfer, and homogenization of liquids and semi-solids. There are two main types of mixing tanks: single-wall and jacketed.

Single-Wall Mixing Tanks

  • Structure: These tanks consist of a single layer of material, typically stainless steel
  • Purpose: Used for mixing liquids that do not require temperature control.
  • Common Applications:
    • Beverages (juices, syrups, dairy products)
    • Liquid soaps and detergents
    • Chemical solutions (that do not require heating or cooling)
    • Paints and coatings
  • Advantages: Cost-effective, simpler design, easier to clean and maintain.

Jacketed Mixing Tanks

  • Structure: These tanks have an outer jacket or layer through which a heating or cooling medium (such as steam, water, or glycol) circulates.
  • Purpose: Ideal for temperature-sensitive products requiring controlled heating or cooling during mixing.
  • Common Applications:
    • Dairy products (pasteurization of milk, yogurt production)
    • Chocolate and confectionery (melting and tempering)
    • Pharmaceuticals (syrups, creams, vaccines)
    • Chemical reactions requiring controlled temperatures

Choosing the Right Tank

  • If temperature control is not required → Single-wall tank
  • If heating or cooling is necessaryJacketed tank

Kettles

Jacketed Double-Motion Kettle

  • Structure: A double-motion kettle has a jacketed design that allows for heating or cooling while incorporating two types of mixing motions.
  • Mixing Action:
    • Primary Agitator (Scraper Blade): Rotates along the inner surface of the kettle, ensuring even heat distribution and preventing product from sticking or burning.
    • Secondary Agitator (Opposite Rotation or Paddle Blade): Moves in the opposite direction or at a different speed, ensuring thorough mixing and reducing lumps.
  • Ideal for:
    • Sauces, soups, and stews
    • Creams and lotions
    • Candies and confectionery
  • Advantage: Provides efficient heat transfer and uniform mixing, ideal for medium-viscosity products.

Jacketed Triple-Motion Kettle

  • Structure: Similar to the double-motion kettle but incorporates an additional mixing motion.
  • Mixing Action:
    • Primary Agitator (Scraper Blade)
    • Secondary Agitator (Paddle or Ribbon Blade)
    • Third Motion (Overhead Stirring or Counter-Rotating Mixer): Further enhances mixing uniformity, breaking down larger particles and improving texture.
  • Ideal for:
    • Thick sauces (cheese sauce, caramel, gravies)
    • Heavy creams and pastes
    • High-viscosity cosmetic and pharmaceutical products
  • Advantage: Best for highly viscous and complex formulations requiring thorough incorporation and heat distribution.

Types of Mixers we can provide 

  1. Anchor Agitators

    • Moves along the tank walls, scraping and ensuring uniform heat distribution.
    • Best for medium- to high-viscosity liquids (lotions, syrups, sauces).
  2. Propeller Mixers

    • High-speed, three-blade propellers create turbulent flow.
    • Best for low-viscosity liquids (juices, beverages, chemicals).
  3. High-Shear Mixers

    • Creates intense turbulence for emulsification and homogenization.
    • Best for sauces, creams, and cosmetics requiring fine particle distribution.
  4. Turbine Mixers

    • Similar to propellers but more effective at blending at different tank levels.
    • Best for medium-viscosity liquids and emulsions.
  5. Magnetic Mixers

    • Uses a magnetically driven impeller to prevent contamination (ideal for sterile environments).
    • Best for pharmaceuticals and food processing.

Storage Tanks

Stainless Steel Storage Tanks: Features & Their Importance

Stainless steel storage tanks are widely used in industries such as food & beverage, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and cosmetics due to their durability, corrosion resistance, and ease of cleaning. Here are some key features that can be provided and why they matter:

Single-Wall vs. Jacketed Tanks

  • Single-Wall Tanks → Used for storing non-temperature-sensitive liquids.
  • Jacketed Tanks → Have an outer layer for heating or cooling, ideal for temperature-sensitive products like dairy, chocolate, and pharmaceutical solutions.

Vertical vs. Horizontal Tanks

  • Vertical Tanks → Space-saving and ideal for bulk storage.
  • Horizontal Tanks → Easier to transport and better for high-viscosity materials.

ASME-Certified Pressure Tanks

  • Designed to withstand high pressure, necessary for gas storage or carbonated beverages.

Mixing-Integrated Tanks

  • Some tanks can include built-in agitators or mixers for products that require constant blending, such as oils, creams, or dairy.

3. Insulation & Temperature Control

Insulated Tanks

  • Helps maintain product temperature without continuous heating or cooling.
  • Important for dairy, chocolate, and pharmaceutical products.

Cooling Jackets or Coils

  • Used for products like beer, wine, and dairy, where temperature control is crucial.

Steam Heating or Electric Heating Elements

  • Required for hot liquid storage, like oils, sauces, or pharmaceutical syrups.

Agitators & Mixers

  • Built-in mixing systems for liquids that require constant agitation or suspension.
  • Examples: Dairy, cosmetics, and chemical solutions.

 

ASME vacuum Pressure vessel

A jacketed vacuum pressure vessel is a specialized tank designed to handle pressurized or vacuum conditions while also providing temperature control through an external jacket. These vessels are commonly made of stainless steel (304 or 316) and are used in industries where precise pressure and temperature control are essential.


Key Features of a Jacketed Vacuum Pressure Vessel

Jacketed Design

  • The outer jacket allows for heating or cooling using steam, hot oil, water, or glycol.
  • Ensures consistent temperature control for products that require precise thermal processing.

Vacuum Capability

  • Can remove air and gases from the vessel, preventing oxidation and improving product purity.
  • Crucial for degassing, drying, and vacuum-assisted mixing.

Pressure Handling

  • Can operate under both high pressure (positive pressure) and vacuum conditions (negative pressure).
  • Required for processes like chemical reactions, emulsification, and sterilization.

Material & Sanitary Construction

  • 304 or 316 stainless steel for corrosion resistance and hygiene.
  • Polished interior surfaces to meet FDA and pharmaceutical-grade cleanliness.

Agitation & Mixing Options

  • Can include high-shear mixers, ribbon blenders, or propeller stirrers for uniform mixing.
  • Prevents separation and ensures homogeneous product consistency.

ASME & GMP Compliance

  • Built to ASME standards for pressure vessel safety.
  • Designed for pharmaceutical, food, and chemical industries following strict sanitary guidelines.
