Description

METHOD AND MIXING DEVICE FOR MIXING FIRST LIQUID AND SECOND LIQUID INTO DISPERSION
Field of the invention
The invention relates to a method for mixing first liquid and second liquid into dispersion as defined in the preamble of independent claim 1.
The invention also relates to a mixing device for mixing first liquid and second liquid into dispersion as defined in the preamble of independent claim 12.
In a typical mixer- settler, in a first step, the aqueous and organic phases are pumped into a mixer or mixers in order to achieve uniform liquid-liquid dispersion and a small droplet size. In the VSF® technology (stands for Vertical Smooth Flow) developed by the applicant, this first step is performed in a pump-mixer called Dispersion Overflow Pump (DOP®) (disclosed e.g. in document US 5,662,871) and in a set of one or more SPIROK® helical mixers (disclosed in e.g. document US 5,185,081). After mixing, the dispersion is fed into a settler.
Objective of the invention
The object of the invention is to provide a method and a mixing apparatus enabling mixing two phases of a liquid-liquid extraction process with each other in a single mixing apparatus instead of using a separate pump-mixer and a separate set of one or more helical mixers.
Short description of the invention
The method of the invention is characterized by the definitions of independent claim 1. Preferred embodiments of the method are defined in the dependent claims 2 to 11.
The mixing apparatus of the invention is correspondingly characterized by the definitions of independent claim 12.
Preferred embodiments of the mixing apparatus are defined in the dependent claims 13 to
22.
In an embodiment of the invention the delivery of the first liquid and the second liquid is taken care of by ordinary high pressure centrifugal pumps and all mixing is done in a single mixing apparatus. The mixing of the phases into dispersion takes place in a static mixer consisting of 10-20 pieces of commercial mixer inserts placed inside the vertical shaft of a rotatable mixing device comprising at least two helical bars around the vertical shaft, such as inside the vertical shaft of a rotating helical Spirok type mixer, which vertical shaft is supported in a cylindrical mixing tank of the mixing apparatus at the upper end and at the lower end by a bearing. The liquids are fed into the vertical shaft at its lower end by means of a first feeding means and a second feeding means comprising concentric pipes that induce the primary dispersion of the first liquid and the second liquid. The first feeding means and a second feeding means are placed at least partly inside the cylindrical mixing tank and it is sealed against the shaft by glands due to a high back pressure generated by the static mixers. The static mixers creates a highly turbulent flow pattern resulting in an intense mixing of the dispersion, which produces very fast mass transfer that enables to drive the extraction reaction close to equilibrium within a retention time of only one second of order. The mixed dispersion is discharged from the static mixer from the openings at the top of the vertical shaft to the top region of the cylindrical mixing tank. The dispersion is then drawn downwards in the cylindrical mixing space by the inner axial flow pattern of the rotatable mixing device. When the flow reaches the bottom of the cylindrical mixing tank, its direction is reversed to an upward flow in the annular region near the wall of the cylindrical mixing tank to the lifting force of the rotatable mixing device. The rotatable mixing device and its rather gentle mixing effect provides additional retention time to bring the extraction reaction to completion and also allows the average droplet size of the dispersion to grow large enough so that the phases can effectively disengage in a gravity settler no larger in size than those used with the current mixer-settlers. The dispersion eventually exits the cylindrical mixing tank through a round aperture in the middle of the height of the wall and flows further to the settler through an uptake channel. The cylindrical mixing tank is covered by a partly submerged top lid, which significantly reduces the air liquid interface and prevents harmful air mixing into the dispersion in the cylindrical mixing tank.
