Mixers play a critical role in the efficiency of wastewater treatment and various industrial processes. Whether it’s dissolving, blending, agitating, or suspending liquids, achieving a homogeneous mixture is essential for optimal performance. As the demand for efficient mixing solutions grows, SEEK Engineering is here to assist with expert design and analysis.
In one recent project, SEEK Engineering provided agitation solutions for a cow manure tank, ensuring the liquid was properly mixed for use in agricultural fields. We were not found anywhere near the sprayer when it was in action (thankfully, lol), our role in ensuring a homogeneous mixture was crucial to the success of the operation.
In the project we worked on, the tank had a distinct challenge: a thick, solid crust formed on the surface, while the liquid settled at the bottom (as you can see the image below). Without proper agitation, these layers remain separated, which can hinder the efficiency of downstream processes. Effective mixing is critical to break through this crust and ensure that the entire tank contents become a uniform, homogeneous mixture. This is where our expertise in agitation and mixing systems comes into play, ensuring every project runs smoothly from tank to field.
Effective tank mixing depends on a variety of factors, including:
- Tank size
- Mixer angle and location
- Viscosity of the liquid
- Shear forces
- pH levels
- Temperature
Each of these variables plays a part in determining the overall efficiency of the mixing process. Whether your application involves wastewater, industrial processes, or even agricultural operations, SEEK Engineering can design a mixing solution tailored to your needs.
