Abstract: A product mixing apparatus and method of using a mixing apparatus. In one embodiment, the apparatus comprises a hopper containing the product, with the hopper having a throat section extending therefrom. The throat section has a first injection member configured for injecting a solution into the throat section. The apparatus further contains a mixing chamber connected with the throat section, with the mixing chamber containing a second injection member configured for injecting the solution into the mixing chamber and mixing the product with the solution to form a slurry. A liquid barrier line in fluid communication with the throat section is included in order to keep a head of liquid above the jet within the mixing chamber. An exit line extending from the mixing chamber in order to withdraw the slurry may also be included. In one embodiment, the first injection member is a nozzle positioned being positioned so as to deliver the solution into the throat section under a pressure.
