A gas solution manufacturing device 1 includes a gas supply line 2 configured to supply a gas as a raw material of a gas solution, a liquid supply line 3 configured to supply a liquid as a raw material of the gas solution, a gas solution production unit 4 configured to mix the gas and the liquid together to produce the gas solution, a gas-liquid separation unit 5 configured to perform gas-liquid separation of the produced gas solution into a supplied liquid to be supplied to a use point and a discharged gas to be discharged through an exhaust port, and a gas dissolving unit 6 provided in the liquid supply line 4 and configured to dissolve the discharged gas resulting from the gas-liquid separation in the liquid. The gas dissolving unit 6 is configured with a hollow fiber membrane configured with a gas permeable membrane.

A microdroplet/bubble-generating device comprising a slit and a row of a plurality of microflow paths is constructed, in such a manner that either a continuous phase or dispersion phase is supplied to the slit, and so that the end of the slit, the other supply port for the continuous phase or dispersion phase and the liquid recovery port are connected. The plurality of microflow paths each have a narrow part where the cross-sectional area of the flow channel is locally narrowed adjacent to or near the connection point between the slit and the microflow path. The continuous phase and dispersion phase that have met at the connection points flow into the narrow parts, and the dispersion phase is sheared at the narrow parts with the continuous phase flow as the driving force, forming droplets or gas bubbles of the dispersion phase. The product is recovered from the liquid recovery port.

A trihalomethane (THM) and volatile organic compound (VOC) removal system includes: a storage vessel; a fluid inlet on the storage vessel where fluid enters said storage vessel; a fluid outlet on the storage vessel where fluid exits said storage vessel; and a fluid fitting on said storage vessel. Fluid leaves the storage vessel via an inlet conduit attached to the fluid fitting and flows through a pump and passes through a venturi aspirator, and returns to the storage vessel through an outlet conduit attached to the storage vessel.

There is provided an ammonia gas removal system, including a fine bubble generation device which is configured to receive at least a portion of scrubber process water from a storage tank, and to generate fine bubbles containing carbon dioxide gas in the received scrubber process water, the storage tank being configured to store the scrubber process water to be provided to a gas scrubber, the gas scrubber being configured to spray the process water onto ammonia-containing gas.

An ozone water generating device includes a housing, an ozone generator for generating ozone, and an ejector having a water inlet, a water outlet, and an air inlet. The ozone generator and the ejector are installed in the housing. An exit of the ozone generator is connected to the air inlet of the ejector. The ozone water generating device can directly output ozone water, and has a compact structure and is small in size.

This application relates to a method of treating wastewater wherein an oxygen infusion system is used to supersaturate wastewater before aerobic biological processes, wherein oxygen is transferred to the wastewater free of oxygen bubbles and achieves a reduction in power demand for the aeration process of wastewater.

A method as well as a liquid mixing system provide a liquid-foam mixture by mixing water with at least one additive. The liquid mixing system includes a water pressure source, an additive reservoir unit, an air compressor unit with a compressor and a drive device, a first and second mixing device, a discharging unit, and multiple different line networks for the respective media. The drive device is formed by a water engine or a water turbine, the water inlet of which is line-connected to the water pressure source.

An apparatus (2) for dissolving a gas into a liquid includes a liquid inlet (4) for supplying liquid into the apparatus, a gas inlet (6) for supplying gas into the liquid within the apparatus and a venturi (52) arranged to dissolve the gas into the liquid passing through the venturi. The apparatus also includes an outlet (18) for the liquid and dissolved gas downstream of the venturi. At least part of the liquid inlet, at least part of the gas inlet, at least part of the venturi and at least part of the outlet are formed in an integrally formed piece of material (42).

The present invention provides an ultrafine bubble-containing liquid producing apparatus capable of reducing the possibility of intermitting supply of a UFB-containing liquid. An ultrafine bubble-containing liquid producing apparatus includes producing units that produce an ultrafine bubble-containing liquid containing ultrafine bubbles by using a liquid supplied from a liquid introducing unit and deliver the produced ultrafine bubble-containing liquid to a liquid delivering unit. The producing units include a plurality of ultrafine bubble generating units capable of operating independently. Each of the plurality of ultrafine bubble generating units is provided to be capable of independently switching between communicating with and being disconnected from the liquid introducing unit and the liquid delivering unit.

The present invention is a novel bubble generator that can be used in many different industrial applications. The design of the bubble generator of the invention allows its user to selectively generate gas bubbles in a liquid having a wide range of diameters in the range from microns to millimeters simply by changing the ratio of the flow rate of the gas to that of the liquid. The bubbles are generated at low liquid and gas supply pressure values. The bubble generator of the invention is able to create an unstable liquid flow regime having large amplitudes and frequencies for liquid containing bubbles without the use of moving mechanical parts and drives.
