Description: Ploughshare mixer works on the principle of mechanical fluidisation of the products being processed. It consists of a cylindrical horizontal vessel housing a central shaft, which runs along the axis of the vessel. Bolted on this shaft at various intervals are plough-shaped mixing elements. These plough-shaped mixing elements act in conjunction with high-speed choppers, which enter the vessel wall along its radius. The number of ploughs and choppers depend on the size of the equipment. Due to mechanical fluidisation of the products particles get individualised, resulting in enhanced specific area. This increase in specific area promotes more homogenous mixing and faster reaction. Products in various phase interactions like solid-solid, solid-liquid, solid-gaseous can be effectively handled. This equipment can be used as an effective dryer under the classification of agitated dryer as defined in Perry's Chemical Engineers Hand Book, and also as an effective reactor. The equipment is available in carbon steels, stainless steels and haste alloy.
