A gas solution production apparatus includes a gas dissolving unit that dissolves gas of a second raw material into a liquid of a first raw material to generate a mixture liquid, and a gas-liquid separation unit that subjects the liquid mixture generated by the gas dissolving unit to gas-liquid separation into a gas solution that is supplied to a use point and an exhaust gas that is discharged from an exhaust port. The gas-liquid separation unit includes a capacity variable section that changes a capacity of an internal space of the gas-liquid separation unit.

A de-aeration reservoir for a vehicle includes an inlet and an outlet., and a receptacle configured to receive a filter therein, the receptacle downstream from the inlet. The de-aeration reservoir further includes a plurality of chambers formed in the reservoir downstream from the receptacle, and a de-aeration opening formed in the receptacle and fluidly connecting the receptacle to an inlet chamber of the plurality of chambers.

A coolant de-aeration reservoir for a vehicle includes a shell, a plurality of compartments defined in the shell, and an inlet and an outlet extending from each of the compartments. The plurality of compartments are fluidly connected to each other.

An apparatus and method are provided for a fuel bowl to supply liquid fuel to a carburetor. The fuel bowl comprises a float chamber and a fuel inlet cavity which receives a fuel delivery insert. The fuel delivery insert receives a fuel inlet valve and comprises passages to direct incoming fuel to a bottom portion of the float chamber. A float comprises an elongate member rotatably hinged within a float cavity of the fuel delivery insert, such that the float rises according to a quantity of fuel within the float chamber. The fuel inlet valve supplies liquid fuel to the float chamber by way of the passages according to the operation of the float within the float chamber. A ventilation chamber allows air and fuel vapors to exit as liquid fuel enters the float chamber while preventing liquid fuel from entering into the carburetor.

Techniques in the disclosure use non-wetting or wetting surfaces to promote or hinder separation of gas from solution in a liquid. The systems and processes promote bubble nucleation and/or promote separation of a gas or gases from a liquid using non-wetting surfaces. Also, the systems and processes suppress bubble nucleation in order to create supersaturated solutions of gas or gases in a liquid by using wetting surfaces.

Inlet and outlet connections of a well manifold connect to integrated piping of a unitary vessel on a skid. The unitary vessel defines an interior separated into two chambers by a barrier. One chamber has a test inlet for well testing operation, and the other chamber has a production inlet for production operation. Each of the chambers is in communication with a gas outlet for gas, a water outlet for water, and a condensate outlet for condensate. Each of the chambers has a weir plate disposed in the chamber and separating the water outlet on a waterside of the weir plate from the condensate outlet on a condensate-side of the weir plate adjacent the barrier. During use, the second chamber can be isolated so well testing operation can be performed using the first chamber. Also, the first chamber can be isolated so production operation can be performed using the second chamber.

An energy-dissipating device and fluid processing system is provided containing a compressor, a motor, a secondary fluid re-circulation loop, a purge line, and a fluid conduit. The compressor is configured to receive a hot fluid including condensable and non-condensable components, and produce therefrom a primary compressed fluid stream and a secondary fluid stream. The motor is configured to drive the compressor and for ingress and egress of the secondary fluid stream. The secondary fluid re-circulation loop is configured to control an operating temperature of the motor. The secondary fluid re-circulation loop includes a first energy-dissipating device configured to remove excess heat from the secondary fluid stream. The purge line separates a first portion of the secondary fluid stream in the fluid re-circulation loop from a second portion of the secondary fluid stream being returned to the motor. The fluid conduit receives the primary compressed fluid stream from the compressor.

A method for continuously removing a particular type of gas molecules (gas molecules) from a gas stream includes selecting a liquid having an affinity for the gas molecules to be removed, and providing the selected liquid to each of a first and second mat, each mat formed from a plurality of fibers having the ability to retain the selected liquid within longitudinally extending channels having longitudinally extending openings against moving into the space between the individual fibers, the mats in fluid communication therebetween with the selected liquid. The method includes directing the gas stream through a portion of the first mat into contact with the selected liquid along the longitudinally extending openings whereby the selected liquid absorbs the gas molecules, and directing a second gas through a portion of the second mat so that the gas molecules, absorbed by and disbursed throughout the selected liquid, are stripped and carried away.

A method for removing carbon dioxide gas from beer. The method includes an apparatus with a preheater, a degas column, a degas condenser, an optional degas condensate receiver, an optional degas condensate pump, and a bottoms pump. The apparatus is arranged to receive a feed from a beer source into the preheater and output the heated beer in the degas column. Much of the vapor in the degas column is condensed to a liquid phase by the degas condenser, and residual vapor is directed to-an existing carbon dioxide scrubber. The liquid phase is then reintroduced to the degas column via the degas condensate receiver and degas condensate pump. The degassed beer is pumped from the bottom of the degas column, through the beer preheater, and finally on to the existing distillation system.
