Abstract
A method and process for the treatment of liquids, comprising moving at least one injection wand into a tank containing the liquid to be treated, wherein the angle between the injection wand and the tank bottom or the angle between the injection wand and the wall of the tank can be altered, and injecting a treating solution through the injection wand to increase the reaction mixing between the injected treating solution and the liquid being treated.
Claims12
An apparatus for the treatment of liquids, comprising:
- at least one rigid injection wand inserted through a single opening in a wall of a tank, said tank having a bottom and containing a liquid containing sulfides to be treated, wherein said injection wand is connected to a joint outside of the tank that allows for the angle between the injection wand and the tank bottom or the angle between the injection wand and the wall of the tank to be altered incrementally and in a controlled manner, and at least one location on said injection wand whereby a treating solution can be injected into the tank to promote reaction mixing between the injected treating solution and the liquid containing sulfides being treated.
