In order to get rid of unwanted phosphatides the edible oil needs to be deslimed beforehand. This is done by contacting the oil with phosphoric acid. To make this stage efficient, it is necessary that the two components get into an intense and intimate contact.
The static mixer SMV provides excellent contacting and maintains the dispersion constantly so that a maximum of phosphatides are transferred within a very short length. Additionally the droplet size distribution is very narrow so that the separation downstream can take place very easily. 

Customer advantages 

• Effective desliming of edible oil within a very short distance
• Low energy consumption due to low pressure drop
• Simple installation with little space requirement
• Reduced phosphoric acid consumption due to improved contact
