A process and apparatus are provided for continuously sampling, for example, crude oil, to determine the amount of water and bottom sediments in the crude oil, wherein the crude oil is passed through a mixing zone in a pipeline to homogenize the crude oil, a fluid stream is continuously withdrawn from the homogenized crude oil and introduced into a collecting vessel. The collected fluid is mixed for homogenization, whereafter a sample is taken from the fluid for analysis.

Homogeneous sampler for non-homogeneous flowing of fluid

Mixing apparatus comprising an elongated vessel provided with a plurality of mixing guides rotatably mounted in the vessel, to obtain an optimal mixing of materials over a wide range of flow velocities without an inadmissible pressure drop over the vessel.
