| OBJECT: |
Wet out Xanthan Gum into water, liquid sugar, corn syrup mixture to increase viscosity of popular table syrup product. |
|
PROBLEM:
|
Xanthan gum agglomerates and forms small lumps which do not disperse later causing quality control problems. |
|
SOLUTIONS:
|
Model D-6000 Dispershear to continuously wet out 2.5% Xanthan Gum that is 0.5% in final product installed at three different plants above mixing tank dispensing down into 1,000 gallon turbine agitated tank. |
|
AB MIXER:
|
Model D-6000 Dispershear
|
| BENEFITS: |
Reproducibilty of viscosity level brought to within specification and time required to disperse Xanthan Gum reduced by 75%. |
