pH Equalization Tank Mixers

Equalization tanks and wet wells exist in industrial, agriculture and municipal wastewater plants to ensure that proper pH balance is achieved prior to the biological stage of the wastewater treatment process. Pulsair pneumatic mixing systems easily overcome the typical problems in equalization tanks, such as the settling of solids that can cause a significant impact on the biological system. Pulsair mixers can be designed for any tank, basin or holding tank to ensure that particles remain constantly suspended. The result is greatly reduced polymer or chemical consumption. Pulsair also reduces the energy consumption and eliminates the problems associated with large, high torque mechanical mixers typically used for constant mixing. Since there are no moving parts inside the tank with Pulsair mixers, maintenance inside the tank is completely unnecessary. This is especially important in closed tanks where VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) emissions are controlled. The gaseous atmosphere in these tanks can be potentially explosive, making the maintenance of electric mixers very challenging. Pulsair makes all-pneumatic models that solve the problem because they use no electricity and are inherently safe. Equalization tanks typically remain under constant mixing operation, and Pulsair mixing systems offer unparalleled energy savings without compromising the equalization mixing process.

Benefits of Pulsair wastewater mixing systems for pH equalization tanks:

• Reduces solids handling costs - keeps solids in suspension during liquid removal
• No moving parts inside the tank - Eliminate maintenance costs commonly associated with mechanical mixers
• Programmable Operations - Programmable control options allow a facility to manage mixing functions in multiple tanks from a single point
• Drastically reduces energy cost - by harnessing gravity and using sequential injection of air our systems use less energy
• Extremely safe - Pulsair all-pneumatic mixer designs use no electricity so they are safe to use in explosion proof environments
• Eliminates leaky motor shaft seals
• Reduces overall operational and maintenance costs
