An in-line gas liquid infusion smart system, featuring a controller having a signal processer configured to receive signaling containing information about parameters or settings related to dispensing a non-infused liquid and a gas-infused mixture of gas and liquid from a dispense point; and determine corresponding signaling containing information to dispense the non-infused liquid and the gas-infused mixture from the dispense point, and also containing further information about the parameters or settings for providing to a remote controller for controlling, monitoring or troubleshooting the in-line gas liquid infusion smart system, based upon the signaling received.

An integrated infuser/mixer pump system features a liquid inlet configured to receive a liquid drawn from a liquid source, a gas inlet configured to receive an inlet gas from a gas source, a pump and motor combination configured to received the liquid and provide pumped liquid, a gas/liquid mixture chamber configured to receive the pumped liquid and the inlet gas, and mix the liquid and the inlet gas into a gas-infused mixture, and a gas-infused mixture outlet configured to provide the gas-infused mixture; the gas inlet having a gas liquid mixing valve with a mixing orifice that has a mixing orifice size dimensioned to provide the inlet gas to the gas/liquid mixture chamber with an inlet gas volumetric flow rate in order to mix the pumped liquid and the inlet gas with a predetermined mixture ratio that depends on the mixing orifice size.

A low acid beverage product such as e.g. coffee, cold brew coffee or nitro cold brew coffee product that is shelf stable for 180 days at refrigerated conditions including a sealed container having a liquid portion and a headspace. The liquid portion has the beverage with oxygen dissolved therein. A method of manufacturing the beverage includes dissolving oxygen and into a cold beverage and packaging the liquid beverage product with oxygen dissolved therein into a sealed container. The liquid beverage product also includes flavorings or sweeteners or milk products in the sealed container and remains free from Clostridium botulinum (C. bot).

Apparatus for introducing a gas into a main medium, comprising: a main conduit for guiding the main medium, a multitude of injection lines for guiding the gas, wherein each of the injection lines has a respective end section with a respective outlet opening situated within the main conduit, and wherein the end sections are oriented essentially parallel to each other and to the main conduit. With the apparatus a gas can be introduced in particular into waste water for obtaining a biologically activated sludge. Thereby, interaction between the gas and the waste water can be particularly pronounced due to a particularly large liquid-gas-interface caused by particularly extensive turbulences. Further, shear stress acting on particles in the activated sludge can be advantageously low, thus avoiding damage of the biological particles.

A nanobubble manufacturing system comprising: a gas supply unit, supplying gas; a mixing device, mixing the gas with liquid into a first solution; and an ultrasonic oscillator, vibrating the first solution to produce a second solution having nanobubbles.

Provided is a gas-dissolved water generating apparatus in which a pressure pump and a multi-stage mixer are sequentially arranged on at least one conduit; a circulation pipe connecting an inlet side of the pressure pump and a outlet side of the pressure pump is positioned on the conduit; a gas supply unit for supplying a predetermined external gas to one side of the circulation pipe, which is connected to the inlet side of the pressure pump, via a gas supply pipe; the gas supply unit and the circulation pipe are connected through a three-way valve, and the three-way valve is configured to have a structure of a venturi pipe having wide inlet and outlet channels and a narrow interior channel along the circulation pipe, so that a gas supplied from the gas supply unit is independently sucked.

A bag assembly for use with a heat exchanger includes a flexible bag having of one or more sheets of polymeric material, the bag having a first end that bounds a first compartment and an opposing second end that bounds a second compartment, a support structure being disposed between the first compartment and the second compartment so that the first compartment is separated and isolated from the second compartment. A first inlet port, a first outlet port, and a first drain port are coupled with the flexible bag so as to communicate with the first compartment. A second inlet port, a second outlet port, and a second drain port are coupled with the flexible bag so as to communicate with the second compartment.

A system for creating an aerated food product, whereby a decreased electrical and thermal load may be obtained is disclosed. Furthermore, a method of producing an aerated food product comprising the steps of separately preparing a first food product portion and a second food product portion, transferring the first food product portion to a first aseptic surge tank, transferring the second food product portion to a second aseptic surge tank, mixing a combination of the first food product portion and the second food product portion to create a mixed food product, aerating the mixed food product to create the aerated food product, and dispensing the aerated food product from a filling apparatus into a container is also disclosed. An aerated food product is also disclosed.

A gas injection system for injecting a gas into a liquid to form a solution includes a flow channel that conveys a liquid from an upstream inlet configured to receive the liquid and a downstream outlet configured to dispense the solution, sparger positioned in the flow channel, a solution pressure detection device configured to sense a pressure of the solution in the flow channel, and a liquid valve configured to regulate flow of the liquid in the flow channel based on the pressure sensed by the solution pressure detection device. The sparger is configured to inject the gas into the liquid through the porous surface as the liquid flows across the surface.
