Abstract
A novel apparatus is disclosed which comprises: The new apparatus is particularly useful as a horizontal flow hydration tank to prepare aqueous viscous fluids for use as well treatment fluids. Hydratable polymers can be hydrated rapidly and consistently in real time. The apparatus is less complex mechanically and operationally than the compartmentalized vertical-flow tanks of the prior art, and it can be constructed as a mobile unit.
