    Abstract: A hydraulically-driven, vacuum jet apparatus is capable of drawing a liquid and solid mixture from a holding receptacle or container and of blending the mixture to provide a uniformly distributed liquid and solid solution. An intake assembly positioned on one end of an elongated tube agitates and thoroughly blends the mixture to an easily displaceable slurry using a rotating, hydraulically actuated propeller positioned outside and beyond a lower end of the tube to permit the solution to be vacuum drawn up through the tube and into a vacuum tank.
