Specifications

Why Choose Our product?

1. Patented Modular Design: Rapid installation and scalability for multi-stage extraction systems.
2. Automation-Ready: Integrate sensors (pH, temperature) or PLC controls for hands-free operation.
3. Corrosion Resistance: Titanium and PTFE options withstand aggressive chemicals in mining or nuclear applications.
4. Energy Efficiency: Low power consumption with optimized agitator speed control.

Material & Processing Excellence

• Robust Materials: SUS316L for acidic environments, PTFE for high-purity pharmaceutical extraction.
• Leak-Proof Welding: Laser-welded joints eliminate leakage risks in continuous operations.
• Transparent Options: PMMA or PVC observation windows enable real-time process monitoring.

How It Works

The integral forming mixer settler uses mechanical agitation to mix immiscible liquids (organic/aqueous phases) in the mixing chamber. The emulsion then flows into the settling zone, where gravity separates the phases based on density. Adjustable weirs control interface levels, ensuring consistent extraction rates up to 99.8%.

Key Applications

• Mining & Metallurgy: Rare earth, nickel, cobalt, and rubidium recovery.
• Battery Recycling: Lithium-ion and vanadium flow battery material extraction.
• Nuclear Industry: Uranium/plutonium separation and radioactive wastewater treatment.
• Environmental: Heavy metal removal (copper, zinc) from industrial effluents.

User Guide

1. Setup
   The setup process begins with carefully selecting a vibration - free surface for mounting the mixer settler. Vibrations can disrupt the delicate mixing and separation processes, so a stable foundation is essential. Use appropriate fasteners to securely fix the unit in place. After that, connect the feed pumps, ensuring a tight seal on all connections to prevent leaks. Then, attach the discharge lines, making sure they are properly aligned for smooth outflow. Double - check all connections and the stability of the mounted unit to guarantee a trouble - free start to the operation.
2. Calibration
   Calibration of the agitator speed is crucial for optimal performance. Utilize the digital controller, which offers a user - friendly interface. You can precisely set the agitator speed within the range of 100 - 600 RPM. For less viscous materials, a lower speed like 100 - 200 RPM might be sufficient for gentle blending, minimizing energy consumption. However, when dealing with more viscous substances or for processes requiring more intense mixing, increase the speed to 400 - 600 RPM. Regular calibration ensures consistent and efficient operation.
3. Operation
   During operation, closely monitor the phase separation through the sight glasses. These glasses provide a clear view of how the immiscible phases are separating. Observe the formation of a distinct interface between the phases. If the separation is not occurring as expected, check and adjust the weirs. The weirs control the flow and level of the liquid phases, and proper adjustment can enhance the separation efficiency. Continuously monitor the process to maintain high - quality separation results.
4. Maintenance
   Regular maintenance is key to the long - term functionality of the mixer settler. Every month, clean the channels using non - abrasive solvents. These solvents are effective in removing residue, scale, and chemical deposits that accumulate over time. Apply the solvent carefully, using brushes or cleaning tools designed for the channels' shape and size. After cleaning, thoroughly rinse the channels to ensure no solvent remains. This maintenance routine helps prevent blockages and keeps the system running smoothly.
