• Abstract:
  Development of a large-scale inline antimisting kerosene AMK blender was undertaken to demonstrate the feasibility of inline blending on a scale that would be representative of in-service use requirements. Inline blending was developed as means of circumventing problems that would be encountered with the use of batch-blended AMK, including 1 unintentional degradation, 2 bulk water incompatibility, 3 filtering difficulties, and 4 self life. The development of the large-scale blender is traced from the laboratory-scale blender 12 gpm, through the continuous inline blender 10 gpm, and the intermediate blender 5 to 25 gpm. All the iterations of each unit that lead to the final configuration of the large-scale blender, which successfully performed the objective, are presented.
