ABSTRACT:
A packed bed static mixer, and a piping network including the same, is disclosed. The packed bed static mixer includes a vertical intake portion, within which packing material consisting of small elements, is disposed. The packing elements may be spheres, PALL RING elements, or the like, and are fabricated of a material suitable for the particular application of the static mixer. The size of the packing elements is maintained to be relatively small relative to the mixer, to provide numerous mixing vortices therewithin; the packing elements are randomly packed into the static mixer. Outlets are provided which extend horizontally and radially from the bottom of the static mixer, and are typically of smaller diameter than the intake portion. Because the mixing action depends upon the size of the vortices at the interstitial voids among the packing elements, the disclosed static mixer design may be readily scaled to various diameters.
