Water and wastewater treatment plants are usually created as a made-to-measure design and lay-out for a particular project. Depending on the original situation and the intended treatment, various process engineering steps are combined so that the aim of the process engineering is safely within reach. While doing so, the engineer draws from a range of known unit processes. The most important processes from this range are stirring and mixing processes. They play a decisive role in nearly all water and wastewater treatment plants.
Below you will find some examples for important applications of mixing technology in water and wastewater treatment plants:
| Application | Mixing task |
| Mixing and equalization tank | Suspension and Homogenization |
| Neutralization | Flash-Mixing |
| Pre-Mixing of Precipitants | Flash-Mixing |
| Precipitation | Suspension and Homogenization |
| Coagulation | Suspension and Homogenization |
| Biological phosphate elimination | Suspension and Homogenization |
| Denitrification | Suspension and Homogenization |
| BOD or COD removal | Homogenization and Dispersion |
| Disinfection | Flash-Mixing |
| Sludge treatment | Suspension and Homogenization |
| Storage of chemicals/chemical solution | Suspension |
INVENT is able to respond to your specific mixing tasks and offers mixers that are optimized based on the process at hand.
