A large volume processor for highly viscous products
The Large Volume Processor (photo) consists of horizontally arranged, heated reactors with either co- or counter-rotating shafts that provide intensive mixing and kneading for effective polymerization and devolatilization of products with viscosities up to 15,000 Pa.s. These highly versatile processors are characterized by large process volumes and self-cleaning. They allow for the efficient treatment of difficult-to-handle products or materials undergoing phase changes. They permit the economic realization of long residence times, and combine various process steps into a single unit. Hall 12, Stand A51 — Buss-SMS-Canzler GmbH, Pratteln, Switzerland
