When it comes to achieving efficient water treatment, precision mixing plays a crucial role. The Static Mixer by IGS Water is designed to optimize the blending of gases, chemicals, and other fluids directly within the water stream — all without any moving parts or external power. This innovative device uses fluid dynamics to create a uniform mixture, ensuring consistent results for a wide range of applications.
What is a Static Mixer?
A static mixer is an inline device installed within a pipe that mixes fluids as they pass through. Instead of relying on mechanical blades or motors, it uses a series of strategically arranged plates or elements inside the tube. As the liquid flows, these elements divide and recombine the stream, producing turbulence and thorough mixing.
The IGS Static Mixer is made from durable stainless steel (SS316), making it ideal for both industrial and water treatment applications. It provides an efficient and maintenance-free solution for continuous fluid mixing.
Key Benefits of the IGS Static Mixer
1. No Power Required
The static mixer operates solely using the flow energy of water. This means there are no motors, no moving parts, and no electrical consumption, resulting in lower energy costs and simpler operation.
2. Enhanced Mixing Efficiency
The mixer ensures complete and even distribution of chemicals or gases such as oxygen, ozone, chlorine, or flocculants. This leads to faster reaction times, better coagulation, and improved treatment efficiency.
3. Improved Water Quality
Through effective chemical blending, the static mixer helps remove organic matter, pathogens, and unwanted microorganisms. It can also boost the oxidation process, making the water cleaner and safer for use in aquaculture, agriculture, or industrial applications.
4. Low Maintenance and Long Lifespan
Since it has no moving parts, maintenance is minimal. The stainless-steel construction ensures durability, corrosion resistance, and consistent performance even under continuous operation.
5. Cost and Chemical Savings
With better mixing efficiency, operators can reduce chemical usage by up to 25%. This not only cuts costs but also minimizes the environmental footprint of the water treatment process.
How It Works
As water flows through the mixer, it passes through multiple layers of mixing plates. These plates create alternating zones of high and low pressure, forcing the water and injected substances to intermix rapidly. This motion ensures every drop of water receives an equal amount of treatment — with no dead zones or uneven concentration.
The process results in:
- Uniform distribution of treatment chemicals
- Faster and more complete reactions
- Increased oxygen transfer rates
- More stable and effective water treatment performance
Applications
The IGS Static Mixer is ideal for a wide range of uses, including:
- Water and wastewater treatment plants
- Aquaculture systems and fish ponds
- Industrial process water treatment
- Chemical dosing and disinfection
- Gas injection systems (oxygen, ozone, carbon dioxide)
Whether for municipal facilities or private industries, this mixer enhances the performance of existing treatment setups and improves overall water quality.
