Single-Shaft KneaderReactors
The extremely versatile LIST Single Shaft KneaderReactors are in successful operation in a wide range of industrial-scale process applications, for example
The innovative design features a single mixing shaft whose kneading elements intermesh with static counter-hooks which are attached to the process housing to provide a self-cleaning effect. The rotational speed and geometry of the mixing shaft and kneading elements are custom designed to optimize the efficiency of the process. With an operating volume up to 20 m3, it provides the capacity to handle the largest production capacities.
