A continuous, low shear solids dissolution system involving a water supply system (100), polymer metering system (120), mixture feed tank (152), mixture pump (154), mixture transport conduit (172), undissolved polymer dispersal element (188), solution sieve assembly (210), and holding tank (250). The polymer-water mixture (156) is pumped through mixture transport conduit (172). Undissolved particles of polymer encounter dispersal elements (188) and the particles are more uniformly dispersed. Any particles which are carried undissolved out of the mixture transport conduit (172) are forced through sieve (214) to further disperse the polymer in the water. The undissolved polymer is completely dissolved by low shear agitation in a holding tank (250).
