Processing plants for mixing and dispersing in the chemical industry
Large production volumes, frequent new developments and firm compliance with specifications, such as environmental compatibility while simultaneously processing highly aggressive substances, are just some of the challenges facing the chemical industry. Extensive and similarly efficient process technology is crucial for meeting these requirements.
Due to their different designs (from basic to high-end), our IKA processing systems and production machines can carry out a wide range of process engineering tasks in the chemical industry. For example, dust-free, lump-free powder incorporation in liquids is one of our core competencies. In order to be able to withstand aggressive environments, our mixing and dispersing machines and systems can be made of corrosion-resistant materials such as Hastelloy®. In addition, the energy-efficient and simultaneous compact design of IKA processing systems and machines ensures excellent economic efficiency.
The high shear rate of our IKA dispersing machines enables homogeneous mixing of diverse chemical substances and raw materials, even with varying viscosities. By scaling up from pilot scale to large-scale production systems, a wide variety of chemical products such as emulsions or suspensions can be produced.
