摘要:
Uses of a method of producing small bubbles of gas in a liquid include gas transfer in airlift bioreactors and anaerobic digesters, and particle separation. The method uses a source of the gas under pressure, a conduit opening into a liquid and oscillating the gas passing along the conduit. The oscillation is effected by fluidic oscillator, comprising a diverter that divides the supply into respect outputs, each output being controlled by a control port, wherein the control ports are interconnected by a closed loop. Separation of algae from water involves delivering a laminar flow of microbubbles in the range 10 to 100 μm diameter. Such bubbles also deliver a laminar flow in bioreactors that delivers enhanced liquid flow despite the small bubbles, which improves mixing and also enhances efficiency of gas exchange and retention of the bubbles in the reactor.

Method for bringing ozone into contact with a flow of liquid in which a fraction of the liquid flow is tapped off, a carrier gas laden with ozone is injected into the tapped-off flow, forming gas bubbles, the gas bubbles and the liquid are mixed so as to form a two-phase tapped-off flow, and the tapped-off flow is reintroduced into a descending vertical stream of the main liquid flow, this vertical stream undergoing, at the bottom, a change of direction to essentially the horizontal, the reintroduction of the tapped-off flow being carried out at the lower end of an injection tube immersed in the descending vertical stream of the main flow. The descending vertical stream (3a) forms a continuous liquid column, static mixing is provided in the injection tube (16) as far as the vicinity of its outlet, and the two-phase tapped-off flow is reintroduced into the descending vertical stream (3a) in the form of at least one jet having a vertically downward velocity component, this reintroduction taking place below a height (H) of liquid and with a vertically downward velocity component that are sufficient for the gas bubbles to be entrained downwards, without rising.

In a microbubble liquid producing apparatus, an air bubble liquid producing device for mixing liquid with air by an aspirating pressure generated by a pressure pump arranged on a liquid feeding pipeline while aspirating the liquid from a liquid supply source and forcibly feeding the liquid by pressure is disposed on the liquid feeding pipeline on the upstream side of the pressure pump relative to the liquid feeding direction. A first air-bubble atomizer is disposed on the liquid feeding pipeline on the downstream side of the air bubble liquid producing device for atomizing the air bubbles contained in the air-mixed liquid produced by the air bubble liquid producing device. A second air-bubble atomizer is disposed on the liquid feeding pipeline on the downstream side of the first air-bubble atomizer for further atomizing the air bubbles atomized by the first air-bubble atomizer.

Disclosed is a diffuser installation structure capable of improving uniformity of air bubbles discharged from air bubble discharge holes, restricting the formation of dead zone air bubble discharge holes, and having the tolerance against design deviation. In the installation structure for a diffuser comprising at least one air feeding port and an air bubble discharge wall having a plurality of air bubble discharge holes, the air bubble discharge wall is inclined upward in the direction of increasing distance relative to the air feeding port.

摘要:
An aeration system for a submerged membrane module has a set of aerators connected to an air blower, valves and a controller adapted to alternately provide a higher rate or air flow and a lower rate of air flow in repeated cycles. In an embodiment, the air blower, valves and controller, simultaneously provide the alternating air flow to two or more sets of aerators such that the total air flow is constant, allowing the blower to be operated at a constant speed. In another embodiment, the repeated cycles are of short duration. Transient flow conditions result in the tank water which helps avoid dead spaces and assists in agitating the membranes.
