Reducing Capital and Operating Costs With Inline Mixers

Inline mixers are a highly efficient solution for mixing in process. Often confused with Static Mixers, they are commonly referred to as Dynamic Inline Mixers as well. Dynamic inline mixing sees wide use in the wastewater treatment, mining and oil refining industries. Inline mixing is exceptional at delivering high-shear mixing and blending while reducing both capital costs, footprint, and installation time. In comparison to Static Mixers, Dynamic Inline Mixers do not influence head pressure, or clogging. Energy is focused only on the required reaction, leaving your process control and flow rate unaffected. Often, we can provide an inline mixing solution that will deliver the same results as a tank mixer while saving time, money, and space for the facility. Design

Designing Cyanide Destruction Agitators for Any Process

Most jurisdictions around the world require remediation of cyanide and cyanide metal complexes in gold leaching tailings. Whether through cyanide destruction or cyanide recovery, an additional step is added to the process. There are many distinct chemical processes for cyanide remediation, each presenting unique challenges. Dynamix’s GMX and NMX lines can provide engineered cyanide destruction agitators for any size or type of operation. Cyanide Destruction Agitators for SO2/Air Processes The most widespread cyanide destruction technique in current use is the INCO process. The process supplies SO2 and air, or oxygen, in order to convert free cyanide and cyanide in metal complexes to cyanate. Cyanate, an oxidized form of cyanide, is significantly less toxic and is suitable for discharged to the

Gold Leaching Agitators Optimization for Increased Yield

Optimizing Gold Leaching Agitators for Increased Yield Designing optimal gold leaching agitators means considering many nuanced and often competing factors. Dynamix provides innovative engineered solutions that improve yield by controlling solids suspension, gas dispersion, and carbon attrition. The NMX line of agitators and Dynaflow™ impellers offer practical solutions for both carbon-in-pulp (CIP) and carbon-in-leach (CIL) gold leaching circuits. Technical Challenges for Gold Leaching Agitators By far the most common leaching process, gold cyanidation produces a complex ion of gold and cyanide, called aurocyanide. Activated carbon then adsorbs the aurocyanide from the ore slurry, with CIP circuits having adsorption in a separate train, while CIL employs countercurrent adsorption in the main leaching tanks. The production of aurocyanide requires gold, cyanide, oxygen,

Agricultural Mixing All-Purpose Solution With Integrated Tote Mixers

Agricultural mixing covers a wide range of applications, including fertilizers, seed treatment, and crop protection. Dynamix’s line of Integrated Tote Mixers (ITM) provides a versatile solution in all of these areas. The detachable drive segment easily switched between multiple mixers. Your tote can become a process vessel, providing optimal control over mixing efficiency, uniformity, and suspension. Uniform Fertilizer Suspensions for Agricultural Mixing Liquid fertilizers are an essential part of most farming operations. The necessary quantities of nutrients may be present in the fertilizer solution, but proper mixing is critical to ensuring the proper dosage is distributed. During storage, separation and settling lead to an uneven distribution that will result in crops receiving too little or too much fertilizer. Dynamix ITM

Road Marking Paint Quality With Integrated Tote Mixers

Line painting presents unique mixing challenges that require innovative solutions. At Dynamix, we’ve spent years developing our Integrated Tote Mixers (ITM) line to meet these challenges. Our mixers and agitators solve numerous quality problems for road marking paint. These problems range from product uniformity and cross-contamination to skinning.   Why Mixing Matters for Road Marking Paint For both private and municipal clients, line painting requires uniform paint composition to ensure quality. During shipping and storage, the solids in road marking paint will separate and settle. Without proper suspension, the paint will have an uneven pigment distribution and fail to meet quality standards. Private clients will be dissatisfied with the inconsistent appearance of the final product. Municipal clients have stringent quality

Mixing 101: Low rpm, High Torque Mixing

Mixing 101: Low rpm, High Torque Mixing In the process industry, there’s a strong focus on power as the defining characteristic in mixing. Many considerations are often left by the wayside when choosing a mixer. These factors can make or break the application. Relying solely on the G-Value or velocity gradient in mixer design leaves important information out of the equation. Focusing on the G-Value gives rise to the misconception that horsepower, rather than torque, is the critical factor determining mixing effectiveness. This method is effective for applications requiring high-sheer and turbulent flow, but this isn’t always the case. High-speed mixing introduces a host of additional considerations based on fluid viscosity, flow patterns, and shearing. Mixing Categories Different types of
