A method and apparatus for dispersing and entraining and controlling the residence time, absorption and release of gas bubbles or particles in a fluid without losing gas utilization efficiency from escaping surface gas events. A mechanical, rotating plurality of hollowed blades that induce both an axial and radial controlled circulatory flow and provide a means of gas introduction into the discharge flow that has a conical helical, axial and radial outward flow from the axis of rotation and allows entrained gas bubbles to be trapped as particles and recirculated by means of a circulatory flow back into the intake vortex of said mechanical, rotating plurality of blades. The flow is characterized by a forced intake vortex caused by a low pressure zone with a radial component, and subsequent axial component drawing fluid in a circular fashion toward the eye of the rotating device and impelling fluid.

Disclosed herein is a disperser which can be easily installed without any air pump, a transfer pope and a porous disperser in such a way to install an impeller, which is employed to discharge water and at the same time to suck air, at an end portion after a shaft employed to transfer the driving force of a driving motor has been connected underwater, wherein the disperser of the present inventive concept is easy to maintain without cleaning due to the plugging, whereupon maintenance is easy and the applicability of the product is good.

An agitation device includes: an agitation member including a disk of substantially plate shape provided rotatably about a vertical axis in a passage through which liquid and gas flow; and a motor configured to rotationally drive the agitation member. The disk is provided with a plurality of openings to shear the liquid and the gas.

Device for mixing a gas into a liquid, implementing a screw structure in a pipe in which the liquid is able to circulate, and also means for injecting the gas at one or more points into the pipe, characterized in that: the first zone encountered by the liquid has a screw portion within which the shaft is a pipe pierced with orifices, the liquid to be treated passing through the space inside the pipe surrounding the shaft, while the gas is distributed inside the shaft and discharges via the orifices into the liquid; the second zone encountered by the liquid situated downstream of the first zone is constituted by a screw portion of which the shaft is devoid of orifices.

A carbonation machine includes a carbonation head to sealingly couple to a bottle filled with liquid to be carbonated; a piping to introduce and compress carbon dioxide into a space within the bottle above a top surface of the liquid to a predetermined pressure level when the bottle is coupled to the carbonation head; a stirrer to stir the liquid to enhance absorption of carbon dioxide in the liquid when the bottle is coupled to the carbonation head; and a manually operated valve mechanism configured to be moved to any position between a closed position to an open position for user-controlled release of pressure within the space.

A wastewater purification apparatus includes an elongate tank, which has an inflow for feeding wastewater, a first vertical agitator with a first hyperboloid agitator body mounted on a vertical first agitator shaft and provided in a first treatment portion downstream of the inflow on the first narrow side, a second vertical agitator with a second hyperboloid agitator body mounted on a vertical second agitator shaft and provided in a second treatment portion downstream of the first vertical agitator, an aeration device with a fan for aerating wastewater received in the tank, a first drive device for rotating the first hyperboloid agitator body in a first rotation direction, a second drive device for rotating the second hyperboloid agitator body in a second rotation direction opposite the first rotation direction, and a decanter for discharging purified wastewater in a third treatment portion on a second narrow side opposite the first narrow side.
