CONTINUOUS MAGNETIC MIXING SYSTEM WITH FLEXIBLE GEOMETRIC MIXING ZONE

摘要

A mixing process and system can include a plurality of magnetic particles within a fluid such as a liquid or solid to be mixed. The fluid to be mixed is dispensed within a mixing zone that may include a mixing tube. Two or more opposing electromagnets are independently activated out of sync to affect a travel path of the magnetic particles to form a turbulence within the fluid to provide an effective mixing of the fluid. The magnetic particles may be removed from the fluid, for example by filtering, or may remain within the fluid.

主权项

1. A system for mixing a fluid, comprising:
a first electromagnet having a first phase and a second electromagnet having a second phase; a receptacle for receiving a fluid to be mixed, wherein the receptacle is interposed between the first electromagnet and the second electromagnet; and a controller configured to activate the first phase out of sync with the second phase.
