Frequently Asked Questions
What distinguishes an agitated vessel and stirred vessel from a simple storage tank?
Agitated vessels and stirred vessels are specifically designed to actively mix or agitate contents to ensure homogeneity, unlike simple storage tanks which are mainly for storage without mixing elements.
Can agitated vessels and stirred vessels also be configured as pressure vessels?
Yes, agitated vessels and stirred vessels can be designed to function as pressure vessels, suitable for applications where reactions or mixing processes under a certain pressure are required.
How important is the cleaning of an agitated vessel and stirred vessels for process safety?
Proper cleaning prevents contamination and ensures the integrity of the batches produced. It also extends the life of the vessel and the agitator, leading to increased process safety and efficiency.
How do I select the appropriate agitated vessel and stirred vessels for my specific application?
Selecting the appropriate agitated vessel and stirred vessels depends on several factors, such as the medium being mixed, the physical and chemical properties of the ingredients, volume, and process conditions. It is advisable to speak with an expert from EBNER to find a customized solution.
What materials are used in the construction of agitated vessels and stirred vessels?
In the construction of agitated vessels and stirred vessels, stainless steel or other corrosion-resistant materials are commonly used as they offer high resistance to chemical substances and temperatures and are easy to clean.
