A microbubble generation module includes a first net, a second net, and a buffering protection device. The first net is provided with a plurality of first through holes and at least one air intake through hole besides to the plurality of first through holes. The second net is arranged on the first net, and provided with a plurality of second through holes. A body accommodates the first net and the second net. The first through hole and the second through hole communicate with each other to form a fluid communicating channel. The air intake through hole is in communication with the fluid communicating channel. The air intake through hole promotes a generation of microbubbles at communicating parts of the plurality of first through holes and the plurality of second through holes when a liquid passes through the fluid communicating channels.

The present inventive concept relates to a venturi nozzle apparatus. Specifically, an embodiment of the present inventive concept provides a venturi nozzle apparatus which mixes water and a gas to dissolve the gas in the water, the venturi nozzle apparatus including a housing in which a flow pipe through which at least one of the water and the water in which the gas is dissolved selectively flows and a bypass pipe which communicates with the flow pipe to selectively bypass at least one of the water and the water in which the gas is dissolved flowing through the flow pipe are disposed, an injector unit which is detachably inserted into the flow pipe of the housing and configured to selectively receive the gas and the water to dissolve the gas in the water, and a valve member which is inserted into the bypass pipe of the housing and configured to cause at least one of the water and the water in which the gas is dissolved to flow to at least one of the flow pipe of the housing and the bypass pipe of the housing.

A microbubble generator is formed from at least two of a flow path constituting section that constitutes a flow path through which a liquid is passable, and a decompression member including a colliding section that is fitted into the flow path constituting section and locally reduces a cross-sectional area of the flow path to generate microbubbles in the liquid that passes through the flow path. This microbubble generator includes an outlet connecting to a negative pressure producing section of the decompression member, an outside air introduction port provided in the flow path constituting section to introduce outside air, and an outside air introduction path communicating between the outside air introduction port and the outlet.

The device is a gas-liquid mixing device having a venturi structure in which a throat portion and an enlarged diameter portion are provided in a main passage through which a liquid passes, the gas-liquid mixing device including a collision chamber provided on an outer periphery of the enlarged diameter portion, and a stirring chamber provided downstream of the enlarged diameter portion. A collision flow path communicating with the collision chamber and causing a gas-liquid to collide with an outer peripheral wall, a straight flow path through which the gas-liquid passing through a central portion of the enlarged diameter portion travels straight, and an outer ring flow path through which the gas-liquid flows from the collision chamber to the stirring chamber are formed downstream of the enlarged diameter portion. The gas-liquids from the outer ring flow path and the straight flow path are stirred in the stirring chamber.
