Continuous compounding systems include a feeding section and a compounding section. Method for compounding or mixing solid matter and liquid matter include providing a continuous compounding system, adding matter to the continuous compounding system, and mixing or compounding the matter.

A reaction apparatus includes a hollow chamber with a stirring shaft. The chamber is maintained at a predetermined pressure and accepts at least two reactants from two storage tanks. The stirring shaft rotates around an axis and creates a reaction product. Taylor vortexes are created while the pressure minimizes the volume possession of the gas phase. The reaction product of micron and sub-micron particles is removed from the chamber and depressurized.

The present invention relates to a texturizing apparatus, configured to texturize a mass of viscoelastic foodstuff material, the apparatus comprising: an outer member, which defines an interior, extending along a longitudinal axis between a first end and a second end, an inner member, which is arranged inside the interior, extending parallel to the longitudinal axis between the first end and the second end. The outer member has an inner surface in the interior that faces an outer surface of the inner member to define a through annular texturizing chamber in between the inner member and the outer member, extending between the first end and the second end. The outer member and the inner member are configured to rotate with respect to each other about the longitudinal axis to subject the foodstuff material in the texturizing chamber to a simple shear flow. The invention is characterized in that the texturizing chamber comprises an upstream chamber segment and a downstream chamber segment, and in that the texturizing apparatus further comprises cooling device, provided at the downstream chamber segment of the texturizing chamber and configured to only cool the downstream chamber segment of the texturizing chamber.

A concrete mixing carrier, comprising a vehicle chassis and a mixing drum provided thereon. A drum housing of the mixing drum is cubic, supported horizontally on the vehicle chassis, and able to form an unloading state where a front portion is higher and a rear portion is lower; the mixing drum forms a closed drum housing; a feed inlet and a discharge outlet are respectively provided on a rear end plate; a rotary inner drum formed by splicing movable blades is provided in the drum body, and adjacent movable blades have therebetween a movement margin for rotation; each strip-shaped movable blade is supported at both ends by paired rollers respectively; stirring blades overhang towards inside of the drum body, backs of back plates are provided with drive racks, and drive gears, mutually engaged with the drive racks, are provided at corresponding positions of the drum body using a supporting bracket.

Mixing systems that include a mixer housing and a plurality of roller assemblies for mixing and processing materials is disclosed. Each roller assembly includes a roller that extends between sidewalls in the mixer housing and rotates to mix an additive into the material and to carry agglomerated solids toward a discharge of the mixing system. Each of the rollers may have a protrusion geometry formed in the outer contact surface, where each protrusion geometry is complementary to an adjacent roller.
