A mixing arrangement, and pump for supplying small particles suspended in a liquid to form slurry for delivery includes a container, a mixing and delivery pump having a first shaft, a rotor connected to the first shaft and arranged at an inner bottom of an inner space of the container, a first power device connected to the first shaft, and a stator having stator blades. The stator surrounds the first shaft. The arrangement includes a pump having an inlet, which is located in a stator space between two stator blades, and an outlet, and an outlet pipe having a second inlet opening connected to the outlet and a second outlet opening located outside the inner space.

A thermal immersion circulator can comprise a heater including a hollow cylindrical main body having an inlet opening at a first end thereof and an outlet opening in a side wall thereof. The heater can include a flexible circuit board having a plurality of resistive bands controlled by controlling electronics such as TRIACs, which can be water-cooled. A thermal immersion circulator including such a heater can be used in scientific laboratories or sous vide food cooking.

Provided according to some embodiments of the invention are methods of manufacturing a pharmaceutical composition. In some embodiments, such methods include homogenizing at a first excipient composition that includes a viscosity agent and at least one solvent to form a first premix composition; separately homogenizing at least one active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) and a second excipient composition to form a second premix composition; and combining the first premix composition and the second premix composition to form the composition. The pre-mixing of constituents may increase the stability of the API and provide uniformity of the dispersion of the constituents throughout the final topical composition.

The invention relates to a dispersion tool (4) that can be cleaned more easily. For this purpose, the dispersion rotor (8) is arranged on the dispersion tool (4) axially moveable between the working position in the shaft tube (5) and the cleaning position outside the shaft tube (5), the dispersion rotor (8), in the cleaning position, being preferably completely arranged outside the shaft tube (5) and therefore being more easily cleanable.

To simplify the handling of a dispersing device (1) and for the unique identification of dispersing tools (5) that are connectable to a drive unit (3) of the dispersing device (1), it is provided that the dispersing tool (5) has a transponder (10) and the dispersing device has a transmitter-receiver unit (11) for reading out the transponder (10).

A downhole tool includes a housing configured to be placed into a subterranean environment and a mixer disposed in the housing. The mixer includes a first inlet configured to receive a fusible metal or alloy component and a second inlet configured to receive a solid metal or semi-metal component. Additionally, the mixer includes a mixing chamber configured to mix the fusible metal or alloy component and the solid metal or semi-metal component to form a liquid or partially liquid alloy. Further, the mixer includes an outlet configured to discharge the liquid or partially liquid alloy into the subterranean environment. The liquid or partially liquid alloy is configured to harden into a solid alloy over time.
