Equalization
Equalization in wastewater treatment
The task of mixing in the equalization process is to blend the wastewater in order to prevent sedimentation, stratification and odor formation. It may also be necessary to mix and homogenize wastewater streams that arrive from different sources. Because the water level in the equalization tanks varies significantly and can sometimes be very low, high demands are placed upon the mixers.
Sulzer submersible mixer types ABS XRW and RW are among the very best solutions. When oxygen is required, Sulzer has a range of options that are very suitable for performing mixing with soft aeration. These include the submersible aerator type ABS XTA or XTAK as well as the aerator type ABS Venturi Jet.
