Abstract: Apparatus for the mixing of gas bubbles into fiber suspensions in order to remove impurities from the fiber suspension by means of flotation is disclosed, including an inlet, an outlet including diverging upper and lower walls, an intermediate mixing section including upper and lower wall surfaces and a wing suspended between them in order to create upper and lower passages in the intermediate mixing section, the wing including an initial diverging portion, a central portion and a subsequent converging portion so that the central portion has a maximum thickness corresponding to the minimum transverse dimension for the upper and lower passages, the converging portion of the wing corresponding with the diverging upper and lower wall portions of the outlet so that the upper and lower passages diverge substantially symmetrically in the direction of flow, and an aperture for injecting a gas such as air at a location corresponding to the central portion of the wing.
