Current advances in liquid–liquid mixing in static mixers: A review

This review article revisits the role of static mixers in process industry nowadays and summarizes most relevant developments literature available on this type handling liquid-phase systems. In particular, seeks to discuss depth progress that has been made hydrodynamic understanding immiscible liquid–liquid dispersions emulsion formation using motionless types mixers, both through experimental computational approaches. Models correlations key parameters, such as mean droplet size pressure drop, proposed over last couple decades, are compiled discussed. The latest modelling numerous frameworks is also thoroughly covered. addition, paper includes a brief fundamental concepts liquid mixing further enrich discussion innovations field.
