Abstract

The mixer arranged in a tube contains at least one or a plurality of mixing elements which have two axial sections each. To each section is assigned at least one separating flange subdividing the section. The separating flanges of the two sections cross one another. The tube cross section is divided into subareas by the separating flanges. At the boundary between the sections both open subareas and subareas covered by deflection plates are provided. On both sides of each separating flange is placed exactly one open subarea. With respect to successive mixing elements, neighboring separating flanges cross each other as well, and the open subareas are arranged so as to be offset with respect to one another.
