Emulsion polymers are by their very nature difficult to handle. With the OR-TEC BLEND these difficulties are minimized. To begin operation, the client need only fit the metering pump suction hose and place it in the polymer container.

The unit is designed to deliver a precise rate of emulsion polymer to the activation zone. There are no moving parts in the wet phase. This eliminates the need for troublesome operator maintenance and unnecessary, and at times costly, down time.

The OR-TEC BLEND is designed for the activation, blending and dosing of emulsion polymer as a solution without any mechanical mixing.

Incoming dilution water is regulated by a flow control meter and is then passed through an injection block. Emulsion polymer is drawn from its container and injected through the injection block by a metering pump.

High water velocities through the injection block instantly activate the emulsion polymer. From there, the solution flows to a retention vessel for further mixing and activation.

A manifold is fitted to the inlet of the retention vessel for even disbursement of the polymer solution. The polymer and water are continuously mixed throughout the chamber by means of spheres. Due to the gradually increasing size of the spheres, the mixing becomes more gentle as the solution passes through the chamber.

The activated / blended solution is now ready for use.
