Method for producing carbon dioxide gas/micro-bubbles mixed water and production device thereof

[Problem] A preparation of forming bubbles of carbon dioxide gas which is put into a micro-bubble generator is realized, unlike a conventional tablet, as a tablet which can retain an ability to neutralize and remove completely chlorine contained in tap water from start of dissolution of the tablet inside the micro-bubble generator to the completion of dissolution thereof, thereby providing a method for producing micro-bubbles of carbon dioxide gas by using the tablet and a device thereof. [Solution] There is provided a method for producing carbon dioxide gas/micro-bubbles mixed water in which a carbonated bathing agent is a tablet which is 7 mm or more both in tablet diameter and tablet thickness, 15 kg or more in tablet hardness, 10 wt % or less in tablet friability and from 5.5 to 9.0 in pH immediately after dissolution of the tablet in hot water and the carbonated bathing agent contains at least one of the following body rendering agents and contains at least one of the following chlorine neutralizing compounds.

Method for providing brine

A method of providing a salt solution at a wellbore site includes delivering solid salt in a mixing tank containing water from a local source and pumping the water through nozzles in the mixing tank using a pump adjacent to the mixing tank to circulate the water in the mixing tank and form a concentrated brine by dissolving the solid salt in the water. The concentrated brine is transferred from the mixing tank to a reservoir using the pump, and the concentrated brine is diluted with additional water from the local source to form a dilute brine. A related mixing tank and a system including the mixing tank and a vehicle structured and configured for travel over a roadway and within an oilfield site.

A dissolution generator apparatus includes: a dissolution generator, including: a housing shell; a powder support screen assembly extending across an interior of the housing shell and configured to support a column of powder; a pressure mechanism disposed adjacent the powder support screen assembly; a spray delivery assembly located adjacent the powder support screen assembly opposite to the pressure mechanism, the spray delivery assembly comprising a spray nozzle configured to spray a solvent through the powder support screen assembly; a duct having a first end in fluid communication with the housing shell, and a second end; a dissolved powder reservoir in fluid communication with the second end of the duct; and at least one recirculation pump disposed in fluid communication with both the dissolved powder reservoir and the spray delivery assembly, so as to form a fluid recirculation loop between the dissolved powder reservoir and the spray delivery assembly.

Dispensing systems

A non-dissolvable immersible dispensing puck in the shape of a dissolvable halogen puck when the dissolvable halogen puck is in an undissolved state with the non-dissolvable immersible dispensing puck physically interchangeable with a dissolvable halogen puck when placed in a dispenser for normally holding only a set of halogen pucks to enable a single dispersant dispenser to be converted to a dual dispersant dispenser without changing the structure of the single dispersant dispenser by placing a dispenser within a dispenser wherein only one of the dispensers may be provided with adjustable water ports.

Systems and methods for gas disposal

A method for controlling the saturation level of gas in a liquid discharge includes obtaining temperature and pressure measurements of a solvent in a mixing vessel and obtaining a pressure measurement of a source feedstock in a feedstock tank, correlating the temperature and pressure measurements of the solvent to baseline data to generate a theoretical uptake rate for the source feedstock into the solvent and a theoretical flow rate of the source feedstock into the mixing vessel, and determining a required opening setting for a feedstock valve in the feedstock input line in order to achieve a desired liquid displacement in the mixing vessel. The method includes determining an uptake duration and achieving an uptake displacement equivalent to the reverse of the desired liquid displacement. The method includes generating a valve operating control law for how the feedstock valve should function in a cycle.

Sequencing device

A method of preparing reagents includes inserting a cartridge into an instrument. The cartridge includes a plurality of reagent enclosures disposed in a cavity of the cartridge and exposing a port to an exterior of the cartridge. Each reagent enclosure includes a reagent container including a reagent and an internal cavity defining a compressible volume, an opening defined through the reagent container to the internal cavity. The method further includes connecting a plurality of fluid ports to the openings of the plurality of reagent enclosures; applying a solution through the fluid ports to at least partially fill the plurality of reagent enclosures; and cycling a pressure of the cavity, whereby for each of the reagent enclosures, during increasing pressure, the solution enters the internal cavity of the reagent container, combines with the reagent, and compresses the compressible volume, and during decreasing pressure, the compressible volume decreases and the reagent is ejected through the opening.
