2-Stage PVC Pilot Mixer Settler Skid-Mounted System Successfully Shipped
2026-04-28
We are pleased to announce the successful delivery of a 2-stage pilot mixer settler system manufactured with PVC material and integrated into a skid-mounted unit. This system will be used by the customer for pilot-scale liquid-liquid extraction testing and process validation.

The equipment is designed with a two-stage counter-current extraction configuration, ensuring efficient mass transfer and phase separation. It is suitable for a wide range of applications, including chemical processing, hydrometallurgy, environmental treatment, and fine chemicals production.
Why PVC Material?
The extraction tanks are made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC), offering:
✔ Excellent corrosion resistance
✔ Cost-effective solution for pilot-scale projects
✔ Good adaptability for acidic or aggressive media
This makes PVC an ideal choice for laboratory and pilot-scale continuous extraction processes.
Skid-Mounted Design Advantages
The entire system is mounted on a single skid, integrating:
✅ Mixing units
✅ Settling chambers
✅ Piping system
✅ Basic control components
This modular design provides several key benefits:
✅ Quick installation with minimal on-site work
✅ Easy transportation as a complete unit
✅ Compact footprint and flexible layout
✅ Convenient expansion to multi-stage systems
Before shipment, the system was fully assembled and tested in our workshop, ensuring reliable performance and reducing commissioning time at the customer’s site.
Supporting Process Development
This 2-stage pilot mixer settler not only enables process feasibility studies, but also helps optimize critical parameters such as:
- Number of extraction stages
- Phase ratio
- Residence time
The data obtained can serve as a solid foundation for future industrial-scale design.
