Abstract
In one embodiment, the present system describes a system wherein a first fluid is within a tank. An intermittent mixer is used for agitating the first fluid within the tank. At least one data acquisition device within the tank is capable of measuring at least one characteristic within the first fluid. In the embodiment, at least one data analyzer is capable of receiving the characteristics within the first fluid, comparing the characteristics within the first fluid to the characteristics of a second fluid, generating a data packet which contains a calculated operational speed and an operational time needed for the intermittent mixer to agitate the first fluid to obtain the characteristics of the second fluid and transmitting the data packet to the intermittent mixer. In this system the intermittent mixer is capable of altering the first fluid within the tank into the second fluid.
