Agimix offers robust solutions in industrial agitators for corn ethanol, specifically designed for the critical stages of starch fermentation and liquefaction. Our equipment guarantees the efficient homogenization of corn wort, preventing the sedimentation of solids and optimizing the contact between enzymes and substrate, essential for the maximum conversion of starch into fermentable sugars. With 15 years of experience in the industrial agitation and mixing market, Agimix develops equipment that meets the rigorous demands of the biofuels industry.
Agimix's vertical agitators and laterals are essential for keeping the corn mash uniformly mixed in fermentation vats and liquefaction tanks and saccharification. Choosing the correct impeller, such as those available in our Accessories - Impellers, is crucial for dealing with high viscosity fluids and high concentrations of solids, characteristics of the corn ethanol process. This ensures superior performance and avoids operational problems, such as the formation of dead zones and the accumulation of material at the bottom of the tanks.
Our solutions are customized for each application, considering the tank volume, fluid properties and process objectives. Whether for alcoholic fermentation or enzymatic liquefaction, Agimix designs and manufactures equipment that promotes maximum energy and operational efficiency. In addition to agitators, we offer mechanical circulators and auxiliary systems, such as Big Bag unloaders, for complete integration into your corn ethanol production plant, ensuring a continuous and highly productive process.
Our agitators guarantee the constant homogenization of the must, optimizing the contact between yeasts, enzymes and substrate, resulting in greater yield and fermentation speed of corn ethanol.
With impellers designed for fluids with high solid concentration, Agimix equipment prevents sedimentation and mass accumulation at the bottom of tanks, reducing losses and cleaning stops.
The energy efficiency of our agitators and the durability of the components result in lower energy consumption and reduced maintenance costs, positively impacting the final cost of ethanol.
Manufactured with materials highly resistant to corrosion and abrasion, Agimix agitators offer long service life and consistent performance, even in the aggressive environments of ethanol plants.
We develop customized projects for agitators and impelidores, adapted to the specificities of each tank and process, guaranteeing the ideal solution for your corn ethanol plant.

Direct answers to the most common questions about this equipment and its application.
The main function of an agitator in the corn ethanol process is to ensure the homogenization of the wort, preventing the sedimentation of solids and optimizing the action of enzymes and yeasts. This ensures efficient conversion of starch into sugars and, consequently, into ethanol.
For corn fermentation vats, vertical agitators with axial or radial flow impellers are the most suitable, as they promote complete mixing of the dough and avoid dead zones. Agimix designs specific impellers to deal with the high viscosity and solids concentration of wort.
The agitator contributes to the liquefaction of corn starch by keeping the mash uniformly dispersed, facilitating contact between the starch and the liquefaction enzymes. This accelerates the breakdown of starch molecules into dextrins, optimizing the efficiency of the process.
Challenges include the tendency for solids to settle, the formation of dead zones and the need for high power to move viscous fluids. Agimix agitators are designed with high shear and flow impellers to overcome these difficulties.
Yes, Agimix offers customized agitation solutions to adapt perfectly to your existing vats and tanks. We consider volume, vessel geometry, fluid properties and process requirements to design the ideal agitator.
Impellers are crucial as they are responsible for generating the flow and shear necessary for mixing. For corn ethanol, specific impellers, such as those with inclined blades or high-flow turbines, are essential to deal with viscosity and the presence of solids. See our Accessories - Impelidores.
Yes, Agimix shakers are designed with a focus on energy efficiency. We use high-performance motors and optimize the design of the impellers to minimize energy consumption, without compromising agitation performance.
Yes, in addition to a wide range of agitators, Agimix also offers mechanical circulators and auxiliary systems such as Big Bag unloaders, which complement and optimize the production process in ethanol plants.
