The most reliable method for moving metallic sludge involves giant turkey basters?

To keep the waste agitated, many of the pre-treatment vessels contain "pulse jet mixers" that act like giant turkey basters, sucking the waste into tubes and expelling it through jet nozzles.

Do you understand a difference between a "turkey baster" and something "acting like a turkey baster"?
