Abstract: An axial infuser assembly for use in a water treatment system is provided. The axial infuser assembly includes a first segment in fluid communication with a first inlet pipe. The first segment is further configured to receive a slurry flow. A second segment is in fluid communication with the first segment and is connected to an outlet pipe. The second segment receives the slurry flow from the first segment. A third segment is connected to the first and second segments and is also connected to a second inlet pipe. The third segment receives a motive flow. A jet assembly is in fluid communication with the third segment and conveys the motive flow in the third segment to the slurry flow. The motive flow exiting the jet assembly is configured to infuse with the slurry flow and further configured to urge the slurry flow into flowing raw, untreated water.
