Method and System for Forming a Liquid Mixture
20230077174 · 2023-03-09 ·

A method and system for forming a liquid mixture utilizes a mixing tank with a tank inlet oriented and configured to create a swirling liquid flow that forms a vortex within the tank. A portion of the swirling liquid is discharged through an outlet formed by an opening in a lower wall of the tank. At least a portion of the opening is offset to one side of a central axis of the lower wall. Liquid is circulated and reintroduced into the tank inlet. A material to be mixed is introduced into the swirling liquid flow within the tank interior to form a liquid mixture.
