Proprietary Industrial Agitation Calculation Technology

Project Description
Development of a calculation and mechanical design methodology for agitation systems integrated into reactors and storage tanks. The solution ranges from impeller design to the definition of driving power, guaranteeing the homogeneity of complex mixtures.
Industrial Sector
Fine Chemistry, Coatings, Food, and Cosmetics.
Technological Challenge

The primary challenge lies in rheological variability (non-Newtonian fluids) and, especially, in absolute containment and leak-tightness. It was necessary to design systems capable of working under extreme conditions of total vacuum, high pressure, and the handling of hazardous or toxic gases, where any leak would jeopardize production and plant safety.

Development

We have consolidated a proprietary calculation technology to define the optimal agitator (turbines, anchors, propellers). A differentiating point of our development is the integration of high-complexity mechanical seals (single, double, or cartridge) with cooling or pressurization systems if required by the process. By analyzing variables such as the Reynolds Number, we accurately determine torque and select specific mechanical sealing to withstand pressure differentials and chemical gas corrosion.

Result
An exact definition of the agitation level has been achieved, avoiding structural failures and optimizing electrical consumption. The use of advanced mechanical seals guarantees safe operation in critical environments, eliminating the risk of hazardous gas leaks and allowing for synthesis processes under vacuum with total reliability.
