A polymer flocculant mixing and dissolving system comprising: a mixing tank (2) in which a solid polymer flocculant is mixed with water used as a solvent; a liquid feed unit (3) for feeding an aqueous solution containing the polymer flocculant from the mixing tank; a regenerative mixer (4A,4B) used to mix and dissolve the polymer flocculant by applying pressure to the aqueous solution containing the polymer flocculant fed from the liquid feed unit while forming a vortex flow; a process channel (61) through which the aqueous solution that has passed through the regenerative mixer is fed to a downstream process; a circulation channel (62) through which the aqueous solution is returned to a position on an upstream side of the liquid feed unit; and a flow rate adjusting unit (6) for adjusting a balance between a flow rate of the aqueous solution flowing through the process channel and a flow rate of the aqueous solution flowing through the circulation channel. The polymer flocculant mixing and dissolving system can stably supply the solution in an amount required in the downstream process.

The disclosure relates to concentrate pouches for use in peritoneal dialysis. The pouches can contain a solid, liquid, or aqueous solution. Water can be added to the concentrate pouches to facilitate dissolution and mixing of dry powders and/or aqueous concentrates to generate a peritoneal dialysis fluid for use in peritoneal dialysis therapy. The concentrate pouches can include a venturi to assist dissolution of concentrates.

A floor cleaning machine is provided. The floor cleaning machine includes a solution tank for a cleaning solution. A pre-canister sensor receives the cleaning solution and measures the concentration of any dissolved solids. A canister assembly receives a portion of the cleaning solution from the pre-canister sensor and dissolves portions of a solid chemical form into the cleaning solution thereby forming blended droplets. The canister assembly has a spray nozzle positioned vertically above the solid chemical form. A post-canister sensor receives a mixture of the cleaning solution from the pre-canister sensor and the blended droplets from the canister assembly. The post-canister sensor measures the concentration of any dissolved solids within the mixture of the cleaning solution from the pre-canister sensor and the blended droplets from the canister assembly. A comparison of the baseline and post-canister measurements outside of a desired range results in replacement of the solid chemical form.

In a fluid injection system for dispensing a solution, said fluid injection system comprises a feeder tank having a product to be dispensed therein, an inlet connection for diverting fluid from a flow line to a fluid nozzle means and an outlet connection for dispensing the solution into the flow line or onto a matter. The fluid nozzle means is in communication with the feeder tank and the inlet connection and the fluid injection system controls a flow rate of fluid at which the fluid nozzle means introduce the fluid into the feeder tank based upon characteristics comprising solubility of the product at a temperature of the fluid in the feeder tank, weight of the product to be dispensed or to be dissolved in the feeder tank, and dispensing time, and the fluid injection system controls a flow rate of the fluid nozzle means to satisfy equation: F=(W)/(T×S) wherein, F is the flow rate of the fluid nozzle means, W is weight of the product in the feeder tank, T is dispensing time and S is solubility of the product at the temperature of the fluid in the feeder tank.

An automatic brine salinity control system receives salt brine, by way of an on-off valve, at its inner end. The control system also receives fresh water, by way of a control valve, from a source of fresh water. The salt brine and the fresh water are mixed to reduce the salinity of the mixture. The salt brine-fresh water mixture is fed to the inner end of a mass flow sensor which measures the mass flow rates, density, volume flow rate, temperature and concentration thereof and transfers the data to a Programmable Logic Controller and computer. The mixture, after being discharged from the mass flow sensor, is fed to a three-way valve which is selectively connected to a storage tank, a waste tank or the brine production system. The PLC and computer controls the operation of the three-way valve, the control valve and the on-off valve.

A method that can efficiently dissolve a water-soluble component contained in a gas with smaller energy consumption is provided. A mist is produced from a liquid. The mist and carrier air is mixed to produce mist-containing air. A solution gas and the mist-containing air are supplied to a static mixer. The solution gas and the mist-containing are mixed by using the static mixer. The liquid mist is brought in contact with the solution gas to dissolve a water-soluble component that is contained in the solution gas into the liquid mist. The liquid mist that contains the water-soluble component dissolved aggregates and produces a solution that contains the water-soluble component dissolved.
