Experimental and theoretical study of the flocculants mixing in water

The article discusses the process of high molecular weight flocculant particles dissolving in water during mechanical stirring. A procedure mixer selection taking into account geometry based on Prandtl’s semi-empirical turbulence model was developed and described. It found that choice optimal rotation speed is related with turbulent frictional stress generated by impeller mixer. results experimental studies preparation concentrated solutions cationic MagnaflokМ 155 using various types are shown. efficiency a conical has been confirmed, which makes it possible prepare solution 1.3 times faster due to possibility mixing at higher rotational speeds lower power consumption
