An Agitator is a machine used in a tank for mixing various process media together. Media include all liquid types, gases & solids (such as salts, powders, granules etc). In summary, it works by rotating an impeller to impart energy to the media which interact and mix.Agitators can perform diverse functions in any industrial plant, which include: Homogenizing solutions and suspensions to achieve a uniform consistency. Maintaining solutions in a mixed state and preventing concentration gradient. Dispersing a gas into a liquid solvent. Promoting chemical reaction inside a reactor.In politics, an agitator is someone who deliberately gets other people riled up about an issue, encouraging them to protest. It's a fairly common political tactic to call activists and reformers agitators, implying that they mainly want to cause trouble.
