Blending Liquids of Different Viscosities

Liquid – Liquid mixing can be a fairly straightforward process when the liquids are of similar or equal viscosity and the liquids are miscible. In these instances, conventional mixing equipment such as stirrers and in-tank agitators will produce satisfactory results. The liquid-liquid mixing process gets more complex when immiscible liquids are to be blended together, such as oil and water for the formation of emulsions.

The Right Mix

Developing a liquid mixing process requires specialist expertise, whether manual or automatic in operation.
Factors such as solids suspension, distribution and shear sensitivity determine the type of agitation, blending, or mixing required.

Positioning of the mixer, access, temperature control and CIP requirements must be considered, along with risk assessments at the design stage to ensure compliance with directives such as PED or ATEX, and appropriate CE markings or Notified Body approvals.
