Active, continuous mixing improves sampling accuracy and maintains potable water quality in storage tanksTo prevent water aging and breakdown of disinfection chemicals, municipal water system operators have tended to rely on normal cycling of water in and out of the tank. However, this “passive” mixing” is often not enough to prevent temperature stratification and its associated problems. An alternate solution is continuous, active mixing. When combined with periodic chemical boosts, continuous, active mixing has been shown to eliminate sampling inconsistencies, thermal stratification and water aging.
