A method for extruding a comestible material comprises the steps of passing comestible material into an extruder (100) with rotation of the extruder screw(s) (120, 122) and delivery of fluid comprising steam and water into an opening (114a) of the extruder barrel (104). The fluid delivery step comprises separately directing individual quantities of steam and water into the casing (72) of a static mixing section (54), and blending the steam and water to create a blended mixture, and then delivering the blended mixture into the barrel (114a). The blended mixture is delivered to the barrel opening (114a) by a conveying assembly (84, 86) having a pipe assembly (86) with an outlet in communication with the barrel opening (114a); the pipe assembly (86) and opening (114a) have diameters less than maximum internal diameter of the static mixer casing (72).

A tank on a firefighting aircraft initially is loaded with water. A polymer gel emulsion vessel is provided but gel emulsion is not activated and mixed with water in the tank until such polymer gel preparation is initiated by an operator. When initiated, a pump pulls water from the tank and returns water back to the tank with a dose of gel emulsion supplied therein. Double elbows and/or the pump impeller fully activates the polymer gel. The activated polymer gel is mixed within the tank by one of a variety of systems including sparging with air, routing of return water from the pump through nozzles and providing a baffle for generating circulatory mixing flow within the tank, or utilizing a mixer element which moves dynamically within the tank. Hydrodynamic forces associated with the aircraft passing over a body of water can power dosing of the water with polymer gel emulsion.

A food processing vat is provided with a vent that can be automatically cleaned in place, without requiring manual cleaning by a technician or removal of the vent from the vat. A nozzle is mounted to at least one of the vent and the vat and has an opening(s) that is posited with respect to the vent to direct cleaning fluid into the vent. The vent may include a canister that concentrically surrounds at least a portion of a vent tube that is fluidly connected to the vat, which collects cleaning fluid and/or condensate from gas that enters or exits the vat.

Apparatus (20) for injection of fluid into extrusion system components such as a preconditioner (24) or extruder (100) is provided, preferably as a composite assembly including a fluid injection valve (52) and an interconnected static mixer section (54). Alternately, use may be made of the fluid injection valve (52) or static mixer section (54) alone. The invention greatly simplifies the fluid injection apparatus used in extrusion systems, while giving more efficient absorption of thermal energy with a minimum of environmental contamination, and the ability to inject multiple streams into the extrusion systems.

A plurality of paddles Pn (n=1 to 17) is provided on an external periphery of a rotary shaft 3 so as to be arranged helically at a predetermined angular pitch of 90°, and a plurality of paddles Qn is provided on an external periphery of a rotary shaft 4 so as to be arranged helically at a predetermined angular pitch of 72°. The rotary shafts 3, 4 are made to rotate in opposite directions at unequal speeds to convey an object to be kneaded in one conveying direction along the rotary shafts 3, 4 while being kneaded by the paddles. The paddle surfaces of the paddles have either a normal phase for advancing the kneaded object in a feed direction or a reverse phase, and the paddles are arranged so that phases cyclically repeat in the sequence “normal, normal, reverse” in the axial direction of the rotary shafts. Since the kneaded object is pushed back by the reverse phase paddles in the direction opposite to the conveying direction, the stirring action can be performed numerous times, and sufficient and uniform kneading is made possible.

A rennet injection system is provided for use with food processing or other equipment that uses rennet as a processing ingredient. The rennet injection system includes at least one injector that has multiple openings for delivering rennet to multiple rennet delivery locations that are spaced apart from each other within the food processing or other equipment. The injector may include a nozzle with a middle bore and angled bores on opposing sides of the middle bore that face away from a direction that the middle bore faces.

Disclosed is a method for removing unburned carbon from fly ash at low cost and within a short time. The method comprises the steps of adding a collecting agent to fly ash directly, agitating/mixing the mixture in a mixer (5), adding water to the resulting mixed material in a mixing vessel (7) to yield a slurry, applying a shearing force to the slurry in a submerged stirrer (9), and performing flotation separation of unburned carbon in a flotator (15).

The invention relates to a transport device for bulk material, comprising a mixer, a feed for bulk material and a feed for liquid into the mixer, and means for withdrawing mixing material from the mixer and to preferably transport it further via pipelines, i.e. in particular with a pump.

A mixing and delivery machine for flowable materials having on-site and towable mobility for mixing, hydrating, and delivering an admixture such as cementious mix, concrete, binder, graveled sand, mold sand and various other mixtures via an extended auger and elevatable hopper is used to facilitate both loading and releasing the hopper contents into the feed end of the auger. The auger is driven by a primemover and a wheel set on the machine facilitates the raising and lowering of the delivery end of the mixing auger.
