Ointment Manufacturing Vessel

This is another vessel shaped like a jacketed cylindrical tank along with a conical bottom. The agitator here isn't a propeller but an anchor that can mix the resultant products from the wax and water phase vessels. This mixing allows the ointment to get the desired consistency.In the pharmaceutical industry, ointments are manufactured by melting oil and aqueous phases in two separate jacketed vessels with agitators for proper mixing. The two phases are transferred to the main ointment vessel through valves and pipes.
