Definitions

  • the present invention relates to micro mixers and more particularly to disk-shaped components for static micro mixers for generating foam.
  • the objective of mixing at least two fluids is to attain a uniform distribution of the two fluids within a certain time such as a short time.
  • dynamic mixers the mixing takes place by use of mechanically actuated agitators which cause turbulent flow conditions.
  • Dynamic mixers have the drawback that because of the required mechanical components they cannot be readily reduced in size.
  • static mixers the mixing takes place without the use of movable parts. These mixers can be reduced in size to give so-called static micro mixers of which various embodiments are known.
  • Static micro mixers have the advantage that the size of the components can be reduced and that therefore they can be integrated into other systems such as heat exchangers and reactors.
  • micro mixers ranges from liquid-liquid and gas-gas mixing to the formation of liquid-liquid emulsions, gas-liquid dispersions and thus also to multiphase reactions and phase-transfer reactions for the time being.
  • US 2008/0106968 A1 discloses a static micro mixer for mixing a liquid/gaseous combustible medium.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a method and a device for mixing at least two fluids for foaming, which process and device are adapted to avoid releasing gases, particularly of volatile organic compounds, during foaming of a tenside solution.
  • a micro mixer which is provided with at least one disk.
  • the disk is provided with at least one inlet opening, a linking channel, at least one outlet opening, which opens into a mixing zone.
  • the inlet opening and the outlet opening are connected in a communicating manner such that two feed streams may be supplied into the mixing zone where mixing occurs.
  • the mixing zone is preferably a through hole extending through the disk in a direction perpendicular to a plane defined by the disk.
  • the mixing zone may be formed in a central position completely enclosed by the disk.
  • the linking channel and sub channels disposed on the disks can be provided in any suitable shape. Both the disks and each linking channel disposed thereon can vary in height, width and thickness so as to also be able to convey different media and different quantities.
  • the basic shape of the disks can be of any suitable shape, for example it can be round or circular or else elliptical or angular, for example rectangular or square.
  • the disk shape can also be optimized in terms of simple fabrication or in terms of minimum weight or minimum unused surface.
  • the outlet openings of the sub channels can be arranged in any desired manner from a straight line to any geometric form. For example, the outlet openings can be arranged on a circular line, particularly when the mixing zone is completely enclosed by the plane of the disk.
  • Two or more than two components can be conveyed in such a disk and mixed in identical or different quantity ratios.
  • the sub channels can be disposed at any angle to each other or relative to the line on which the outlet openings into the mixing zone are disposed.
  • Several sub channels, each conveying, for example, a first component can be arranged side by side, and in the adjacent section of the same disk there can be arranged side by side several sub channels conveying, for example, a second component.

  • sub channels also includes division of the feed stream into part streams by built-in microstructure dividers just before the outflow of said feed stream into the mixing zone.
  • the dimensions, particularly the lengths and widths of these built-in parts, can be in the range of millimeters or preferably smaller than 1 mm.
  • the sub channels are preferably shortened to the length that is absolutely needed for flow control and, hence, for a certain throughput they require comparatively low pressures.
  • the length-to-width ratio of the sub channels is preferably in the range from 1:1 to 20:1, particularly from 8:1 to 12:1 and most preferably about 10:1.

  • the outlet openings are in the form of, for example, round or angular, for example rectangular, recesses. In the case of an enclosed mixing zone, the elliptical or circular shape is preferred.
  • the sub channel can taper off in the form of nozzles in the direction of the mixing zone.
  • the sub channels can be linear or bent in the shape of a spiral.
  • the sub channels can enter into the mixing zone at a right angle relative to the circumferential line of the mixing zone or at an angle different from 90°.
  • the disks with opposite deviation from a right angle are adjacent to each other.
  • disks with oppositely oriented direction of spiral rotation are preferably adjacent to each other.
  • fluid is meant a gaseous or liquid substance or a mixture of such substances that can contain one or more solid, liquid or gaseous dissolved or dispersed substances.

  • the disks can be fabricated by techniques for producing microstructures on surfaces, techniques that in and of themselves are known, for example by etching or milling of metals or by embossing or injection-molding of plastics.
  • the static micro mixer of the invention has a housing with at least two inlets for fluids and at least one outlet for fluids.
  • In the housing may be located at least one disk of the invention arranged in a stack.
  • Stacks can be formed from any number of disks permitting a through-flow commensurate with the height of the stack.
  • the fluid can be introduced at several points.
  • Grooves or ribs can be used for purposes of stacking and aligning.

  • a micro mixer can have, for example, at least 5, 10, 100 or even more than 1000 sub channels and it consists of a stack of disks having several sub channels.
  • each part stream of a first feed flowing from an outlet opening of a disk into the mixing zone is directly adjacent to a part stream of a second feed flowing from an outlet opening of an adjacent disk into the mixing zone.
  • the mixing zone the mixing takes place by diffusion and/or turbulence.
  • the first feed is a tenside solution or surfactant and the second feed is a gas, e.g. air, carbon dioxide, nitrogen or the like, so that a foam is generated in the mixing zone, e.g. a cosmetic or chemical foam such as a shaving foam or hair mousse.
  • a foam e.g. a cosmetic or chemical foam such as a shaving foam or hair mousse.
  • the particular characteristics of the tenside solution and the gas may be arbitrarily chosen for a respective purpose. This means, the concentration of the tenside solution and the gas, the pressure with which these are supplied into the mixing zone, the velocity or flow velocity at which these are supplied into the mixing zone, the exact composition of the tenside solution and the gas, and other parameters, e.g. temperature, may be defined or determined by the skilled person depending on the individual application of the resulting foam and its characteristics.
  • the size of the micro mixer may be individually set. No greenhouse gases are inevitably released during a foaming process of the invention.
  • tenside solution is to be understood as a solution of compounds that lower the surface tension of a liquid, the interfacial tension between two liquids, or that between a liquid and a solid.
  • the "tenside solution” may for example be water containing or water based.
  • Tensides orsurfactants are usually organic compounds that are amphiphilic, meaning they contain both hydrophobic groups (their tails) and hydrophilic groups (their heads). Therefore, a surfactant molecule contains both a water insoluble (or oil soluble) component and a water soluble component.
  • Surfactant molecules will migrate to the water surface, where the insoluble hydrophobic group may extend out of the bulk water phase, either into the air or, if water is mixed with an oil, into the oil phase, while the water soluble head group remains in the water phase.
  • This alignment and aggregation of surfactant molecules at the surface acts to alter the surface properties of water at the water/air or water/oil interface.
  • surfactants are also foaming agents to varying degrees. Foaming results as the tensides or surfactants form a film xomposed of two layer, wherein the hydrophobic ends form the two surfaces and the hydrophilic ends extend into the film.

  • the above micro mixers are well adapted for producing a foam if a second component supplied into the mixing zone is a gas, e.g. air, carbon dioxide, nitrogen or the like.
  • a gas e.g. air, carbon dioxide, nitrogen or the like.
