Agitated Vessel

An Agitated Vessel is a type of industrial equipment used in various chemical, pharmaceutical, and food processing industries to mix, blend, or agitate substances. It is designed to ensure uniform distribution of materials by applying mechanical agitation or stirring. The primary function of an agitated vessel is to promote mass transfer, heat transfer, and to facilitate chemical reactions by ensuring the homogeneity of the mixture.

The vessel typically consists of a cylindrical or spherical body with a mechanical agitator (mixer or impeller) inside. The agitator is powered by a motor and is responsible for creating the necessary movement within the vessel. This movement can be in the form of stirring, rotating, or shaking, depending on the type of material and the desired process outcome.
