Abstract
A vessel for mixing a fluid with a reagent as the fluid flows through the vessel includes a vessel wall that encloses an interior volume. The vessel includes a first end, a second end spaced, and an axis that extends from the first end to the second end. The axis is configured to intersect and form an angle with a reference plane. The vessel also includes a fluid inlet proximate the first end through which the fluid enters the interior volume, a fluid outlet proximate the second end through which the fluid exits the interior volume, a port through which the reagent enters the interior volume, and at least one packing material positioned within the interior volume between the fluid inlet and the fluid outlet. The packing material randomly distributes the fluid and the reagent as the fluid flows through the vessel from the fluid inlet towards the fluid outlet.
