High Performance Mixing for Industrial Process and Air Pollution Control Applications

The patented Gas Blender® static mixer is used on a wide variety of industrial processes:  from improving the effectiveness of pollution control equipment to controlling tight temperature profiles for drying tissue paper, and many more.  The mixers’ high-performance capabilities at low pressure drop make it an excellent solution for many applications in which particle dispersion/concentration, temperature mixing, or unifying velocity profiles are critical to process performance.

In many applications, the Gas Blender is customized to meet specific performance requirements, and is often integrated with other system components  (e.g, injection equipment). In addition, Blender’s engineering and advanced analysis capabilities allow us to support the customer’s process-design team. 

  • Ensures highly uniform temperature distribution

Features & Benefits:

  • The counter-rotational blade design maximizes performance in the shortest possible distance.
  • Blade design allows for maximum mixing while requiring minimal energy.
  • Engineered modifications available including changes to blade angles, orientation, arrays and spacing optimize mixing and pressure drop to meet specific application requirements. 
  • Provides predictable mixing for every mixer size due to geometric similarity
  • Provides reliable pressure drop rating which includes the effect of mixer to duct area ratio
  • Various materials available to address high temperature, highly abrasive and highly corrosive applications. 
  • Sizes range from 2 inches in diameter to over 18 feet
