Technical details and manufacturing context for Main Mixing Vessel

Definition

The Main Mixing Vessel is the central component in Amino Emulsion manufacturing systems where amino acid solutions, emulsifiers, stabilizers, and other additives are combined and homogenized under controlled conditions to create stable emulsions with specific particle size distributions and physicochemical properties. Constructed from Stainless Steel 316L, the vessel is designed for hygienic processing, with internal surface roughness of ≤0.4 μm Ra (ISO 4287) to facilitate cleaning and prevent contamination. The vessel's capacity ranges from 5000 to 20000 liters, with a typical working volume of 80% of total capacity. Design temperature ranges from -10°C to 150°C, accommodating sterilization at 121°C. Agitation is provided by a stirrer with adjustable speed from 50 to 300 rpm, driven by a motor rated between 15 and 75 kW, depending on viscosity and volume. The vessel is equipped with temperature control and vacuum capabilities to optimize emulsion formation and stability. Electrical supply is three-phase, 380–480 V AC (IEC 60038), and ingress protection is rated IP54–IP65 (IEC 60529) for washdown environments. The weight of the vessel varies from 3000 to 8000 kg, depending on capacity and configuration. All parameters are reference ranges and must be verified with the legal manufacturer or supplier for specific models and applications. Standards listed are procurement references and do not imply certification or compliance of any particular product.

Working Principle

The vessel uses mechanical agitation, typically with impellers or high-shear mixers, to disperse immiscible phases. By reducing interfacial tension between aqueous and oil phases, a stable emulsion is formed. Temperature control and vacuum capabilities are often employed to optimize emulsion formation and stability. The stirrer speed is adjustable to achieve the desired particle size distribution and physicochemical properties.

Frequently Asked Questions

What materials are used for the Main Mixing Vessel?

The vessel is constructed from Stainless Steel 316L, as specified in the product data. This material grade is listed for corrosion resistance and hygienic processing.

What is the working volume of the vessel?

The working volume is typically 80% of the total capacity. For a vessel with a total capacity between 5000 and 20000 liters, the working volume would range from 4000 to 16000 liters, but exact values must be confirmed with the manufacturer.

Can the vessel be sterilized?

Yes, the design temperature range of -10°C to 150°C allows for sterilization at 121°C. However, you should verify the specific sterilization procedures and compatibility with the manufacturer.

What standards are referenced for the vessel?

The product data references ISO 4287 for surface roughness, ASTM A240 for material grade, IEC 60038 for electrical supply, and IEC 60529 for ingress protection. These are procurement references and do not guarantee compliance.
