Agitated Vessels for Water and Wastewater Treatment
Agitated vessels for water and wastewater treatment are mixing systems designed for chemical preparation, flocculation, sludge conditioning, and other treatment processes. These vessels provide efficient mixing for treatment chemicals while meeting the durability and cost requirements of water industry applications.
Why are Agitated Vessels Needed for Water and Wastewater Treatment?
Water and wastewater treatment relies on agitated vessels for chemical feed systems, coagulation/flocculation, pH adjustment, and sludge processing. Proper mixing ensures effective chemical utilization, optimal floc formation, and complete reactions. Efficient mixing improves treatment performance while reducing chemical costs.

Agitated Vessels for Water and Wastewater Treatment FAQs
What agitation is required for flocculation?
Flocculation requires gentle agitation that promotes particle collision without breaking fragile flocs. Low-shear paddle or gate agitators provide controlled mixing. Multiple-stage flocculation with decreasing intensity optimizes floc development. We design flocculation systems matched to your water quality and treatment objectives.
How do you design polymer feed systems?
Polymer systems require proper dilution water, controlled activation time, and gentle aging. We provide complete polymer preparation systems including dry feeders, wetting cones, mixing tanks, and aging tanks. Designs prevent undissolved polymer (fish-eyes) that waste expensive chemicals.
