Dispersion is a shear-driven process in which particulates of one material are distributed in a continuous phase of another.
Dispersion of the solids can present several challenges as solid materials can vary in size, shape, density, and other physical properties, making achieving a uniform and consistent mixture difficult.
To address these challenges, it’s important to consider factors such as the properties of the solid materials, the desired outcome of mixing, the appropriate geometry of the impellers, and process parameters.

Crystallization
Crystallization is a process that involves the formation of solid crystals from a liquid or a solution as a result of changes in temperature, concentration, or other environmental conditions. Crystallization is used in various industries, including pharmaceuticals, chemicals, food processing, and materials science, for specific purposes.

Heat transfer
Mixing plays a crucial role in heat transfer processes, and its purposes in this context are often related to optimizing heat exchange between different components or phases within a system.

Dissolving
Dissolving mixing is a process that involves mixing one or more solid substances into a liquid or solvent to create a homogeneous solution. The primary purpose of dissolving mixing is to achieve complete and uniform dissolution of the solids into the liquid.

Solids suspension
Solid suspension mixing refers to the process of mixing solid particles or granular materials into a liquid or another fluid medium to create a homogeneous mixture.

Emulsification
Emulsification is a specific type of mixing process that involves combining two immiscible liquids, usually oil and water to form a stable, homogeneous mixture known as an emulsion. Emulsions are used in various industries, including food production, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and chemical manufacturing, for a wide range of purposes.

Storage
Mixing equipment for storage tanks serves the purpose of homogenizing and maintaining the consistency of fluids or materials stored in tanks. It is quite a common need in industries like chemicals, pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, or wastewater treatment. Adequate mixing is required for storing the end product or in buffer tanks.
