Unit Operations Fluid Mixing Studies - CEK Liquid mixing apparatus has been developed to demonstrate the factors affecting mixing using visualisation and measurement techniques as appropriate. This unit facilitates the study of flow through both fixed and fluidised beds of solid particles. Simultaneous study of air and water systems demonstrates the differences between 'aggregative' and 'particulate' fluidised bed characteristics and the important phenomenon of 'bubbling' can be observed. Solids Handling Study Bench - CEN Comprises a variety of items each of which introduces a different aspect of solids behaviour.
Equipment includes sieves, shaker, hopper, ball mill, cyclone and pneumatic conveyor.
Corrosion Studies Kit - CEQ Designed to demonstrate how potentially corrosive situations may be recognised and avoided. The equipment allows for the simultaneous study of up to eight corrosion cells. Each cell allows for the immersion of three similar test specimens. This range of small scale chemical reactors has four units representing the types found in industry. The absorption studied is that of oxygen from air into deoxygenated water, which is produced by sparging the water with nitrogen in a deoxygenating column.
