AUTOCLAVE TECHNOLOGY

Autoclave Agitator Solutions

Mixtec designs agitators for Pressure Oxidation (POX) and High-Pressure Acid Leaching (HPAL) that deliver reliable gas dispersion, solid suspension, mass and heat transfer under conditions up to 6000 kPa and 200 °C.

Using scaled-up test work and CFD modelling, we understand autoclave kinetics and configure each system for maximum performance.

Wetted components are built from super duplex steel and specialised alloys to withstand highly corrosive and abrasive environments. Cartridge seal housings limit shaft deflection and extend seal life, with two variants available:

Bearing type transferring axial force into the mounting plate

Non-bearing type allowing axial force into the gearbox
