An agitator rotor includes a shaft, rails, and a rod. The shaft defines a longitudinal axis. The rails extend radially from and are coupled to the shaft. The rails are separated from each other along a length of the shaft. Each rail includes a surface defining a non-zero angle with respect to the longitudinal axis of the shaft. The rod includes a first end coupled to a first one of the rails. The rod includes a second end coupled to a second one of the rails. A projection of the first end and the second end of the rod in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the shaft defines a minor arc about a portion of the shaft.

A segmented, heated urea mixer and an exhaust system to control NOx emission from combustion engines comprising a plurality of elements, at least one element independently heatable by an external power source to a temperature above a temperature of another element. A method of using the exhaust gas mixer and an exhaust gas mixer system further comprising a controller is also disclosed.

The present disclosure relates to an extrusion apparatus comprising: a) a planetary roller extruder; b) a melt pump arranged downstream of the extruder; c) optionally, a fluid feeding equipment; d) a static cooling mixer equipment arranged downstream of the melt pump; e) a foaming equipment arranged downstream of the static cooling mixer equipment. The present disclosure also relates to a process of manufacturing a foamed polymeric composition and uses thereof.

The present invention relates to a hand mixer having a heat activation function. The heat activation function preferably allows a user to heat ingredients that are to be mixed by a hand mixer. The hand mixer may include a cavity that has each of a fan, a motor to drive the fan, heated coils, and an output area or mouth. When a user wishes to activate the heating function to soften ingredients in a bowl or other vessel to be mixed, he or she may use a controller to activate the fan and blow air through the heated coils and out from the output area toward the ingredients to be mixed and/or mixing devices used to mix the ingredients, so that the ingredients may be softened.

An apparatus for disposing of organic or sewage sludge waste includes: a storage tank configured to collect and accommodate organic or sewage sludge waste; an agitator which is connected to the storage tank to decompose and dry the organic or sewage sludge waste supplied from the storage tank; a first deodorizer which is connected to one side of the agitator to biologically decompose and remove bad-odour substances from a waste gas generated during an agitating process of the organic or sewage sludge waste; a second deodorizer which heats and removes bad-odour substances contained in the waste gas from which the bad-odour substances have been partially removed by the first deodorizer; and a heat exchanger which heats the waste gas, which flows in the second deodorizer, through heat of the waste gas discharged from the second deodorizer.

The invention relates to a heatable mixer (1) for composite products based on thermoplastic material(s), having an elongated structure defining a longitudinal processing path between an inlet and an outlet and comprising a heated trough (3) wherein two mutually interpenetrating parallel twin screws (4 and 4) are mounted, forming member(s) for dimensionally reducing, heating and moving the products to be treated which are inserted at the inlet, each screw (4, 4′) comprising a heated and driven support shaft (5) arranged in the travelling direction (DT). Mixer (1) characterised in that the thread (4″) of each screw (4, 4) is an interrupted or discontinuous thread and comprises, over at least a major portion of the length of the relevant screw (4, 4′), a plurality of first blades (6) in the form of flat and smooth plates which are separated from each other axially and radially and all arranged according to a constant.
