01

Powder feeding and wetting

Powder should enter at a controlled rate and wet evenly to reduce agglomeration. Feeder, water, and wetting-zone conditions affect solution consistency.

02

Dissolving and mixing

Agitators support contact between powder and water. Speed and time follow the design because poor mixing can leave undissolved polymer or damage chains.

03

Maturation and storage

The solution requires product-specific time before use. Level controls help manage transfer between compartments and solution availability.

04

Dosing into the process

A metering pump sends solution to the dosing point. Initial dosage should be confirmed through testing and adjusted from actual response, not only from pump settings.
