Mixing Tanks

Terracon’s knowledge and expertise are exemplified in its polypropylene and polyethylene mixing tanks. From small-volume carboy mixers to specialty applications such as low-level tulip tanks to large-scale process tanks, Terracon provides both pre-engineered and custom solutions. Our plastic mixers are more economical than metal vessels, and are not susceptible to pitting, rusting, or ionic contamination.

Terracon plastic mixers are available from low-volume, inline static mixers to 50,000 L process tanks. Stand options include plastic, stainless steel, or powder-coated metal stands. They can be ordered with cylindrical flat, cone, and dish-bottom tanks or as rectangular tanks. Options include sanitary fittings, complete drain systems, and spray balls for cleaning in place (CIP). Dual-impeller agitators, baffles, and vortex breakers can be added to optimize mixing. Terracon mixers can be configured to meet USP Class VI, cGMP, and FDA requirements.
