PRIMIX is a manufacturer and supplier of static mixers and heat exchangers for urban and industrial water and waste water treatment. With over 30 years of experience we offer through static mixers solutions for conditioning, aeration and disinfection of water.
Static mixers and heat exchangers for drinking water treatment
Facilities for the production of drinking water often make use of the principle of continuous mixing when treating and conditioning the water. Depending on the source of the drink water, several steps will be required in any production facility in order to make the water suitable for human consumption. The PRIMIX static mixers can be precisely tailored to the process of performing optimum processing or conditioning.
Applications static mixer and heat exchangers
Applications of the PRIMIX static mixers and heat exchangers are as follows:
-
Ozonation of water – blending ozone
-
Desalination of sea water
-
Disinfecting water
-
Adding carbon dioxide to mineral water
-
Conditioning of water (pH and temperature)
Waste water treatment, industrial water purification and sewage water purification
Water purification, also called waste water purification plants, purify the waste water from households and businesses. For this biological, chemical and physical processes are used to treat the waste water. The treatment of waste water and the removal or neutralization of chemical and biological contaminants prior to discharge, is the most important function of a purification plant. PRIMIX provides solutions for efficient mixing of additives while the downtime remains limited.

Applications waste water treatment
Applications of the PRIMIX static mixers are as follows:
-
Aeration of the water / oxygen blending
-
Anoxic Mixers (de-nitrification)

Process water treatment and other water treatments
At many points in the process industry various types of process water are used. Examples include H-water or water in which certain additives are mixed in as part of the procedure. These streams of water are not suitable for consumption. In most cases the work is done in a continuous process when making this type of water, for example from drinking water, and a static mixer is then the obvious device for administering doses and mixing them in. PRIMIX is a major supplier of equipment used in water mixing and process water treatment.
Applications process water treatment
Applications of the PRIMIX static mixers and heat exchangers are as follows:
-
Blending of two streams of water at temperature
-
pH correction by adding lye or acid
-
Brine dilution for discharge at sea
-
Mixing in salt dilutions and re-mineralization
-
Coagulation and flocculation - groundwater treatment

Frequently asked questions
What makes a static mixer the superior choice for continuous processing?
You should opt for a static mixer when your project demands continuous inline mixing combined with maximum system reliability. Their design features no moving parts, ensuring zero maintenance and high operational uptime, which are key requirements for water treatment plants.
Which water treatment processes utilize static mixing?
Static mixers are an excellent solution for critical treatment stages in water treatment, including:
- Dosing: Precise addition of coagulants and flocculants.
- Sanitization: Mixing of disinfectants.
- Balancing: pH adjustment.
- Injection: Ozone and gas transfer. They operate maintenance-free while guaranteeing consistent mixing quality (CoV).
What data is needed to engineer the correct static mixer?
To accurately specify a static mixer, the following process parameters must be analyzed:
- Rheology: Flow rate and viscosity.
- Composition: Density and phase ratio.
- Targets: Desired Mixing quality (CoV value).
- Limits: Allowable pressure drop.
- Environment: Pressure and Temperature.
- Note: A supplier such as PRIMIX can support process calculations after the the static mixer process data form has been completed.
Why are static mixers more economical than dynamic mixer options?
For water treatment facilities, replacing dynamic mixers with static units delivers tangible financial and operational benefits:
- CAPEX: A single, one-time investment.
- OPEX: Significantly lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).
- Logistics: No spare parts inventory needed.
- Execution: Fast delivery times and simplified installation.
