Abstract
An apparatus for mixing or otherwise processing fluids, which apparatus comprises, within a housing, a rotating perforated drum positioned tangentially relative to an inner non-rotating stationary body that is located within the rotating perforated drum. The outer surface of the rotating perforated drum is also positioned tangentially relative to the inner surface of the housing or other outer non-rotating stationary body. In operation, zones are formed which promote mixing of the fluid being processed and generate new fluid surfaces, thereby facilitating mixing, degassing and/or reaction.
