Static mixer
A mixer including a first inlet channel, a second inlet channel, a third inlet channel, and a first dividing wall between the first inlet channel and the second inlet channel. A first opening and a second opening are formed in the first dividing wall. The mixer further includes a second dividing wall between the second inlet channel and the third inlet channel with a third opening and a fourth opening formed in the second dividing wall. The first opening is aligned with the third opening along a first axis and the second opening is aligned with the fourth opening along a second axis.
MIXER ASSEMBLY
The invention relates to a mixing device (1) for integration into an exhaust pipe (4.1, 4.2) of an internal combustion engine and for mixing an exhaust gas stream (T), which device is formed from a housing (2) having a tubular wall (2.1) and a mid-axis (2.2) that can be aligned parallel to the exhaust pipe (4.1, 4.2) and from an intermediate wall (3) which is aligned transversely with respect to the mid-axis (2.2), wherein the intermediate wall (3) divides the housing (2) and has an inflow side (3.1) and an outflow side (3.2), wherein at least one inflow opening (E1) is provided in the intermediate wall (3), via which the exhaust gas stream (T) can at least partly flow from the inflow side (3.1) of the intermediate wall (3) to the opposite outflow side (3.2) of the intermediate wall (3), wherein the at least one inflow opening (E1) is placed eccentrically with respect to the mid-axis (2.2) and is brought close to a wall section (W1) of the tubular wall (2.1), wherein a flow guide element (S2) having a longitudinal axis (L2) is provided on the outflow side (3.2), which at least partly bounds a mixing chamber (2.3) with the intermediate wall (3) and by means of which an at least partial deflection of the exhaust gas stream (T) in a radial direction in relation to the mid-axis (2.2) can be effected, wherein the flow guide element (S2) has at least two outflow openings (A1, A2) and, by means of the flow guide element (S2), the exhaust gas stream (T) coming from the inflow opening (E1) can be guided to the at least two outflow openings (A1, A2), wherein the outflow openings (A1, A2) are placed eccentrically with respect to the mid-axis (2.2) and brought close to a common wall section (W2) of the tubular wall (2.1), wherein the wall section (W2) is arranged opposite to the wall section (W1) with respect to the mid-axis (2.2), and wherein the outflow openings (A1, A2) are arranged on opposite sides of the flow guide element (S2) with respect to the longitudinal axis (L1, L2), wherein, with respect to the mid-axis (2.2), the first partial stream (T3) can be can at least partly guided in the anticlockwise direction and a second partial stream (T4) can at least partly be guided in the clockwise direction out of the outflow openings (A1, A2).
METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR REAL-TIME, CONTINUOUS PRODUCTION OF NON-VIRAL CARRIER NUCLEIC ACID PARTICLES
Methods and systems are provided for transfecting cells using real-time, continuous transfection of cells. In some aspects, the methods can be applied for the continuous production of non-viral vector nucleic acid complexes. The systems and methods include a passive mixing fluidic module with at least two inlets, a plurality of mixing elements, and an outlet to provide a continuous flow of transfection complexes to a cell reactor. The transfection agent and nucleic acid are passively mixed and then provided to cells in a continuous flow of cell medium. In some aspects, the flow of cell medium perfusing through the cell reactor recirculates. The system and the methods of the present disclosure provide for highly reproducible and scalable transfection with a low coefficient of variation.
IMPROVED STATIC MIXING TIP
A static mixing tip includes a static mixer, a housing and a body. A head space is between the housing and the static mixer, a sealing lip on the base of the static mixer seals between the base of the static mixer and the housing, and a venting element is on the sealing lip of the static mixer or the housing. The venting element provides gas flow communication between sides of the sealing lip, and a gaseous connection between the head space and an exterior ambient atmosphere such that gases trapped in the head space between the housing and the static mixer can escape during normal operation and operation of the static mixing tip.
Fluid filtration device
Described are filtration elements for removing materials from a fluid. The filtration elements generally operate by inducing cavitation into a fluid passing through them, generating energy and removing unwanted materials from the fluid. The filtration elements can be used singularly or in combination with one another for a multiple level filtration system.

Reconfigurable mixing baffle for static mixer and method for making a static mixer
A mixing baffle for mixing a fluid flow includes a longitudinal support structure and a first set of moveable mixing elements integrally molded with and extending from the longitudinal support structure. The first set of moveable mixing elements are molded in a first configuration and deform to a second configuration. The first set of moveable mixing elements may deform when the mixing baffle is inserted into a conduit. A static mixer for mixing a fluid includes a conduit and the mixing baffle inserted in the conduit.
BOTTLING SYSTEM
A container system for liquids, including an in-container mixer/aerator in the exit throat of the container. The mixer/aerator is a cylinder, having axial peripheral grooves, and and axial central bore, divided by axial vanes.
