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 16):
A method to recover entrained solids and solvated materials from waste water, comprising the steps of:\n a) delivering an influent stream of said waste water at a substantially constant flow rate to a settling tank via an influent pipe; b) discharging said influent stream by a discharge outlet oriented to discharge said influent stream toward a fluid deflector located in said settling tank; c) deflecting a first portion of said discharged influent stream with said fluid deflector; and, b) dispersing a second portion of said influent stream with a fluid dispersion assembly having an open end to receive said second portion of said influent stream, a sealed end, side walls to define an interior region of the fluid dispersion assembly, and one or more holes in said side walls to cause dispersion of said second portion of said influent stream.
