Mixing device

A static mixing device for laboratory systems comprising an inlet channel, an outlet channel, a mixing cavity, a laminar mixing element arranged within the mixing cavity, 10 to 20 inlet pillars, and 10 to 20 outlet pillars, wherein

• the inlet channel extends along an axis of the mixing device from a first end of the mixing device to the mixing cavity;
• the outlet channel extends along the axis from the mixing cavity to a second end of the mixing device arranged opposite to the first end;
• the mixing cavity is arranged between the inlet channel and the outlet channel, wherein the mixing cavity extends in an axial direction along the axis and in a radial direction along the axis and in a radial direction outwardly from the axis to an outer wall of the mixing cavity;
• the laminar mixing element extends radially across the mixing cavity into an inlet portion and an outlet portion, wherein the mixing element comprises a plurality of holes extending through the mixing element, wherein said holes are distributed over the mixing element, the mixing element further comprising at least four rows of holes where each row of holes constitutes a ring of holes arranged concentrically with the axis of the mixing device, wherein an innermost row of the plurality of holes is distributed at a first radial distance from the axis and an outermost row of the plurality of holes is distributed at a second radial distance from the axis, wherein the second radial distance is greater than the first radial distance, and wherein the outermost row comprises at least twice the number of holes as compared to the innermost row.
