The components will be comminuted actively for the most part by overcoming their minimum, that is, tangential, breaking strength at minimum power inputs. - For example, a highly concentrated viscous suspension is prepared as follows:
- Measured quantities of highly siliceous components, such as sand, chemical additives, and water are charged into the inlet cone and forced by the screw feeder under high pressure into the working zone of tapering height between
conical bases - The minimum-maximum particle size obtained in the apparatus is equal to 10 nM, which is the maximum size for a minimum of particles produced, the size of the particles actually produced being within the range of two-thirds to three-quarters of any specified particle size for any maximum specified size of the material charged in. The apparatus is suitable for producing and processing dry materials, for example, highly homogenous active micro-silica, micro-calcite, coal, talc, and the like, and liquid highly concentrated viscous suspensions, sandcement suspensions, water-coal suspensions, and other highly homogenous suspensions having a specified ratio of ingredients; processing materials in an inorganic medium at pH between 2 and 14, and in any specified organic medium at a desired temperature maintained with an accuracy of ±0.1°C to ±0.5°C in any specified temperature field by force-feeding a temperature stabilizing agent at a required temperature.
- The invention produces substances and materials having novel specified properties with a high accuracy.
- The apparatus starts operation on the following general principle:
- Before the apparatus is connected to the power network, all systems thereof are checked by polling, whereupon its power supply is turned on.
- After the thermostat (temperature and moisture control) station has been turned on, its control system sets the desired working temperature in the working zone of the actuator (homogenizer) of the apparatus. The calibrator control system specifies the calibrator parameters. The medium parameters are specified in the working chamber of the actuator (homogenizer). The main motor of the actuator (homogenizer) is turned on, and so is the supply of the material to be processed. Simultaneously, the working medium is supplied to the working zone of the actuator (homogenizer). If needed, the process is adjusted, and all specified parameters analyzed and adjusted, if necessary. The thermostat system specifies and maintains the process temperature with an accuracy of ±0.1°C to ±0.5°C within the working temperature range of -196°C to +500°C.
- The apparatus can be used for processing materials within the hardness range on the international scale from 1 (talc) to 10 (diamond). The working medium specifying and maintaining system specifies and maintains the desired working medium in the working zone: any liquid with a pH index from 2 to 14, any liquid organic medium, including highly flammable liquid, and any gaseous medium, for example argon. This system also specifies and maintains the parameters of electromagnetic radiation applied to the working zone of the homogenizer, such as radiation power and wavelength from 105 to 10-16 meters, essential for maintaining the processes.
- A system for bubbling the material being processed is turned on, if necessary, during apparatus operation. The apparatus operates continuously as material to be processed is fed in from above and the processed material comes out through the discharging system at bottom. The system monitors continuously the specified parameters automatically.
- The claimed invention is, therefore, a multipurpose apparatus having broad processing capabilities because it can be used in many industries.
- This is a multifunctional invention because it manufactures a desired product as well as comminutes materials in an environment-friendly process.
