20150209741 | Polymer Mixer - A polymer mixer comprising an impeller formed from a series of rotating discs mounted to a drive shaft and driven by an electric motor. Polymer is piped through a mixing chamber to the inlet of the rotating discs that creates a high shear mixing zone. Dilution water is also piped to the high shear mixing zone which is a concentric hole in the center of the discs which serves as a liquid inlet when the discs are spinning. The discs are in close proximity creating high velocity and turbulence via centrifugal force. An open design between the discs allows the disc surface to pass the solution molecules multiple times before the molecules exit the perimeter, creating a shearing affect by the high speed surface in the solution. Discs of smaller diameter are coupled to the high shear discs to further mix and recirculate more viscous solutions. | 07-30-2015 |

20080317907 | Method and apparatus for applying aqueous coating to cooked foods - A cooked snack food or cooked edible core material, such as roasted nuts, or baked snack chips, while still hot from the cooking step, is tumbled and sprayed with an aqueous solution of a water-soluble, film-forming coating component, such as a maltodextrin. The tumbling and spraying is performed immediately after cooking so that latent heat from the cooked edible core material, reduces the moisture content of the applied aqueous solution to form a dry, thin film coating of the coating component on the edible core material. The need for a separate, subsequent drying step or forced air drying equipment to reduce the moisture content is eliminated by evaporative cooling of the hot cooked snacks and flashing of the applied aqueous coating solution. The dry, coated cooked snack may be cooled to obtain a snack food having a thin, uniform coating which enhances appearance, texture, taste and shelf life. | 12-25-2008 |
