Understanding Pharmaceutical Industry Agitation

 

Agitation plays a crucial role in various dairy processes, including:

 

Milk Pasteurization

  • Ensuring uniform heating and cooling for effective pasteurization.

Blending

  • Achieving precise blending of ingredients for various dairy products.

Cheese Production

  • For curdling processes, our agitators ensure thorough mixing of curds and whey, optimizing yield and consistency in both soft and hard cheeses.

Fermentation

  • Promoting consistent fermentation by maintaining a homogenous mixture.

Storage

  • Preventing product separation and sedimentation during storage.

Cream Processing & Butter Churning

  • Delivering precise agitation to maintain cream homogeneity and assist in the emulsification process.

 

Verito’s Dairy Agitator Solutions

 

Our extensive range of dairy agitators is designed to address the specific needs of different dairy processes:

 

Anchor Agitators

  • Ideal for large-scale mixing and blending applications, providing efficient circulation and uniform distribution.

Propeller Agitators

  • Suitable for mixing liquids with low to moderate viscosities, offering high-speed agitation and rapid mixing.

Turbine Agitators

  • Designed for demanding applications, providing intense mixing and high shear rates for effective blending and dispersion.

Helical Ribbon Agitators

  • Ideal for high-viscosity materials, ensuring thorough mixing and preventing product build-up.

 

Key Features & Benefits of Verito Dairy Agitators

 

Customizable Designs

  • Our agitators are fitted with specialized impellers that are optimized for gentle mixing, ensuring thorough blending while maintaining the texture and consistency of dairy products. These impellers can be tailored to handle varying viscosities, from thin liquids like milk to thicker substances such as yogurt or cream.

Energy Efficiency

  • Our agitators are designed to minimize energy consumption while delivering maximum performance, helping dairy facilities lower operational costs without compromising on mixing quality.Precise Control: Advanced control systems for precise agitation speed and intensity.

High-Quality Materials

  • All Verito dairy agitators are constructed from food-grade stainless steel (SS316L) to ensure hygienic operation and corrosion resistance. These materials meet international food safety standards, preventing contamination and ensuring long-lasting performance even under harsh cleaning regimes like CIP (Clean-In-Place) and SIP (Sterilize-In-Place).

Hygienic Seals and Bearings

  • To prevent contamination and leakage, our agitators feature aseptic mechanical seals and hygienic bearings that are designed for easy cleaning and maintenance. This ensures compliance with stringent sanitation standards in the dairy industry.

 

Agitator Types

 

Top-Entry Agitators

  • Ideal for large dairy tanks, such as those used for milk storage and fermentation, these agitators offer excellent mixing with minimal shear forces, preserving product quality and preventing separation or damage to fat globules in milk.

Side-Entry Agitators

  • These are used for continuous processes such as cream processing and butter churning, where consistent agitation is required to maintain homogeneity and reduce the risk of fat separation.

CFD in Mixing Technology
What is CFD ?

 

  • Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) represents an approved approach within the realm of fluid mechanics. Its widespread application is evident in industries such as automotive, aircraft, process, and mixing.
  • The primary objective of CFD is to address fluid flow-related inquiries by leveraging numerical techniques. The governing equations typically revolve around principles like Navier-Stokes, Euler, or potential-based equations.

 

Flow Simulation at Verito

 

  • Verito leverages cutting-edge Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) technology, alongside laboratory experiments and field trials, to design, scale-up, enhance, or modernize agitators and mixing systems.
  • Verito’s engineers utilize CFD technology to gain an in-depth understanding of velocity distribution, flow patterns, areas with low velocity (referred to as dead zones, as illustrated in Figures 1, 2 & 3), as well as regions with both low and high shear rates within various mixing system configurations.
  • This enables the testing of multiple system setups and tank agitator designs to achieve optimal performance. Additionally, CFD technology aids Verito in fine-tuning impeller blade designs to strike a balance between power requirements and pumping capacity.

 

Key Outcomes of CFD-Studies

 

  • In-depth Information of Flow pattern
  • Areas with the potential of low mixing intensity can be pinpointed and rectified.
  • Availability of crucial process parameters like shear and energy dissipation
  • Evaluation of different design options
  • Shortened project timelines for complex process mixing systems
  • Mitigation of project risks
