Mixer-Settlers
ANTICO MixSett™ systems are designed for liquid-liquid extraction using mixing and gravity separation stages.
The working principle involves intimate mixing of two immiscible liquids followed by phase separation in a settling chamber. The system includes mixer units, settler tanks, and interconnecting piping. It is used for solvent extraction and purification processes. Multiple stages can be arranged for improved separation efficiency. The design allows precise control over mixing intensity and residence time. It is suitable for both batch and continuous operations. It provides high flexibility for different extraction systems. It is widely used in hydrometallurgy, chemicals, and pharmaceuticals. ANTICO MixSett™ offers efficient and scalable extraction solutions.
