Curved Blade Disc Closure Turbine

  • The Curved Blade Disc Closure Turbine is a radial-flow gas-dispersing impeller for pressure reactors. It starts from the curved blade disc turbine and adds two ring plates that enclose the blades, forming a gas-holding chamber inside the impeller. The enclosure raises the gas handling capacity well above that of the open disc turbine. Typical duties are hydrogenation and other gas-liquid reactions in chemical processing.

    How it works

    Gas reaching the impeller is held in the enclosed chamber and thrown outward by the blades. The radial force breaks the bubbles into a fine dispersion and distributes them through the liquid, which favors the gas-liquid reaction. The same radial flow suspends solids at low liquid level. In the quick-selection table, disc turbines run at 100 to 350 r/min in low to medium viscosity liquids and are the strong-shear, gas-dispersing type, with medium speed and high energy consumption.

    Impeller diameter runs from 30 to 2,000 mm on shafts of 10 to 300 mm, with 4, 6, 8 or 10 blades. Materials are carbon steel, SS304, SS316, titanium, nickel, Hastelloy B or C, Monel, zirconium, Inconel and tantalum. Standard impeller and shaft pairings are tabulated below.
