Abstract:
A method for static mixing in a waste water settling tank to increase recovery of entrained solids and solvated materials, the method comprising delivering an influent stream at a substantially constant flow rate to a settling tank; discharging a first portion of said influent stream toward a fluid deflector and a second portion of the influent stream into a fluid containment assembly to distribute the influent into contact with previously introduced waste water to create mixing zones and cause coalescence of the entrained solids.

Claim (Index 11):
The method of  claim 1 , further comprising the steps of:\n a) halting delivery of said influent stream into said settling tank; b) waiting for a time period during which said solids and solvated materials settle to form a sludge layer in said hopper and a supernatant in said tank; c) draining a portion of said supernatant from said settling tank; and d) draining a portion of said sludge layer from said settling tank.
