Abstract
Disclosed is a mixing apparatus which is characterized by a specific range of cavity diameters in combination with a specific range for the size of the inner element (i.e. the maximum diameter, typically of the rotor). Said mixing apparatus provides good shear and distributive mixing with low energy dissipation (i.e. low temperature increase of the mixture due to the mixing process) and allows the manufacture of edible dispersions at a wide range of mixture throughput levels. Also disclosed is a process using said mixing apparatus for the manufacture of edible dispersions.
