ABSTRACT Apparatus is provided for blending batches of particulate material that axe compositionally hetero- geneous into batches of material that are compositionally uniform. The apparatus consists of two or more cylin- drical static mixers, each mixer being substantially iden- tical in volumetric capacity and construction. Each mixer contains six or more vertically aligned partition walls that extend radially from the midpoint of the mixer to the wall to divide the mixer into at least six storage com- partments of substantially equal volumetric capacity. The vertical partition walls differ in height in a regular descending order so that as material is charged to and fills one compartment, it overflows the shorter wall to fill the adjacent compartment. One embodiment of the inven- tion includes means for feeding particulate material suc- cessively through each of the static mixers. A second embodiment of the invention includes means for simultan- eously discharging lots of particulate material from each of the mixers at a substantially uniform rate into a common conveying means.
