Title:

SPL-MIX: Enhancing Industrial Liquid Processing Through Intelligent Pipeline Mixing

Agreement Number:

952826

Agreement Value:

$52,755.00

Agreement Date:

Jun 30, 2020 - Mar 31, 2022

Description:

In-line mixing is proposed as a method to improve efficiency for many industrial mixing processes. Currently used on a limited scale, this project aims to advance the understanding of in-line mixing by characterizing in-line measurement methods. The project is planned as a tight combination of experimental measurements, numerical simulations, and implementation of artificial ntelligence and machine learning. The research group at the University of Alberta is responsible for the numerical contribution to the project.
