Notes:
A new device for solid-solid and gas-gas continuous mixing, based on the impingement of two streams, was developed and successfully tested. It was found that in comparison to other available solid-solid pneumatic mixers, such as the fluidized bed, spouted bed, air mixer, and mixing silo, the new device is very convenient and easy to operate and more energy-efficient. This is also true for gas-gas mixing when compared with a fluidized bed. A model for the gas phase behavior in the mixing of two gases was successfully tested, which supplements the picture of the solid particles behavior predicted from a model previously derived by the authors.
