For reasons of longer shelf life and lower transport volume, plant protection products are often offered in powder form. amixon® has developed vacuum mix dryers that dry particularly quickly and gently. The powdered active ingredient concentrate is usually free-flowing, crystalline and low in dust.
Aromas play an indispensable role in modern food production. The word “aroma” comes from the Ancient Greek word meaning spice. Aromas result from chemical compounds such as arenes, esters, terpenes, aldehydes, ketones, and other basic materials. Many of the chemical compounds from which aromas arise are naturally contained…
Today's crop protection products are highly effective and environmentally friendly. Synthesis reactors from amixon GmbH have valuable features in terms of increased efficiency and operational reliability. This makes them very valuable for the plant.
This whitepaper from amixon GmbH aims to provide insights into the manufacturing challenges faced by producers of plant-based foods and the role of mixing equipment in meeting the demands of this quickly growing market sector.
A powder mixer/synthesis reactor is an important link in the value chain. Weighing data determined online helps with the digitalisation of the mixing plant.
amixon® manufactures high-performance vacuum mixing dryers and synthesis reactors. These can process/dry chemicals of different consistencies. (POWDERY, SOLID, LIQUID, PASTY).
Stabilisers in the food industry are mostly powder mixtures: Gelatine, pectins, sugar substitutes, modified starch, methyl cellulose, phosphates, plant fibres, preservatives, malt extracts, antioxidants, emulsifiers, hydrocolloids, ...
If we compared the number of continuous mixers and the number of batch mixers across all industries, we would quickly see that the number of batch mixers exceeds the number of continuous mixers by far. Batch mixers also dominate the array of different mixer designs.
We can also understand agglomeration built-up granulation without tools: We do dusty work and then vigorously rub our palms against each other. The small crumbs produced this way are the result of built-up agglomeration. The finest particles are compacted and roll up; in the presence of moisture correspondingly faster than…
