<p>A static mixing device comprising a conduit (10) in which there are located a plurality of rows of spaced parallel tubes (12, 14) extending across the conduit (10). The tubes are located in rows in which the adjacent rows extend in a longitudinal direction, but are located at right angles to each other. The heat transfer medium flows through the tubes to maintain the product in the conduit within a preselected temperature range. The adjacent rows of tubes abut each other and thus provide a tortuous path for the product in the conduit to effect mixing thereof.</p> |
