The disclosure is directed at a method, system and apparatus for producing concrete with a nanobubble solution. A nanobubble solution, such as nanobubble water, is produced and then added as an ingredient during the production of concrete to produce an improved concrete.

Apparatus and method for measurement and monitoring of physical properties of materials, such as liquids, and more particularly to acoustic instruments, methods, and systems that automatically measure air content in real-time within liquids, including concrete, mortar, or other hydratable cementitious mix suspensions using resonant electroacoustic transducers that have their radiating surfaces in contact with the liquid.

An apparatus for preparing foam for incorporation into cementitious slurry comprises a conduit having an inlet for receiving a gas feed and a surfactant feed, and an outlet for allowing the exit of foam. The conduit houses a porous plug that provides a partial barrier to fluid flow along the conduit, the plug comprising a plurality of particles that are packed in a regular array and that define a three-dimensional network of pores extending therebetween. The apparatus comprises a resilient component located between the plug and the conduit.

Provided is a gypsum-based board producing apparatus including: a mixer configured to prepare a gypsum slurry; a foaming apparatus; and a pump configured to convey foam generated by the foaming apparatus to the mixer, wherein the pump is a positive displacement pump.

The present invention relates to an apparatus for producing rapid-hardening concrete and a method for producing same, the rapid-hardening concrete being produced by intermixing and dissipating air in normal concrete and adding an early-strength admixture thereto. With respect to forming rapid-hardening concrete, mixed concrete is formed by mixing in a large volume of air bubbles to be discarded, along with an early-strength admixture, to already mixed normal concrete, the early-strength admixture getting evenly dispersed therewithin by means of the ball bearing effect of the air bubbles, and when the mixed concrete is discharged, a rapid-hardening concrete is shotcreted while excess air contained in the mixed concrete is dissipated by means of high-performance air, the slump which was raised due to the large amount of air bubbles having been reduced to the slump range for normal concrete.

A foam injection system for use in the manufacture of cementitious products includes a foam injection body and first and second port inserts. The foam injection body defines a slurry passageway and a port passageway having a port opening in fluid communication with the slurry passageway. The first and second port inserts respectively define first and second foam passageways having first and second orifice sizes. The first and second orifice sizes are different. The first and second port inserts are adapted to removably mount to the foam injection body such that the respective foam passageway is in fluid communication with the slurry passageway via the port opening of the port passageway. One port insert can be replaced with another to readily vary the pressure of the foam passing through the particular port insert and injected into a cementitious slurry traveling through the slurry passageway.

Disclosed is an apparatus and method for manufacturing high-performance concrete by introducing air into normal concrete and dissipating air, wherein high-performance concrete is formed in a manner in which bubbles, which are to be removed, are added in a large amount together with an admixture to pre-blended normal concrete so that the admixture is uniformly dispersed in the normal concrete using the ball-bearing effect of the bubbles, thus forming mixed concrete, and the mixed concrete is discharged using air at a high pressure of 5 atom or more to thereby shoot high-performance concrete of which the slump, remarkably increased due to the large amount of bubbles, is reduced to fall within the range of slump of normal concrete while dissipating excess air from the mixed concrete.
