CHEMICAL DILUTION SYSTEM SAVES MONEY AND INCREASES SAFETY

Like buying orange juice and detergents, water treatment chemicals are almost always less expensive to purchase in higher concentrations.  Unfortunately, feeding high strength chemicals into process water can create problems for the water treatment operator.  These problems may stem from things like extremely low feed rates, chemical off-gassing, hard process water and safety or regulatory concerns in handling high strength chemicals.  An innovative engineer and a determined Northwestern city set out to solve these problems with a chemical dilution system that met both their budget and design criteria.

🧪 What Is a Chemical Dilution System — And Why It Matters

When it comes to handling concentrated chemicals, precision isn't a luxury — it’s a necessity. Whether you're disinfecting water, blending adhesives, or dosing industrial solutions, using the right chemical concentration makes all the difference.

That’s where chemical dilution systems come in. In this post, we’ll break down what they are, how they work, and how Force Flow’s Merlin™ dilution system is helping operations get smarter, safer, and more accurate every day.

💡 What Is a Chemical Dilution System?

A chemical dilution system automatically mixes a concentrated chemical with water to create a ready-to-use solution. You’ll find them in:

• Water treatment plants
• Manufacturing and chemical processing facilities
• Food production and sanitation systems
• Agricultural chemical delivery systems

These systems help reduce waste, prevent overexposure, and make sure your chemical process is running exactly how it should — no more, no less.
