A sparger includes a main pipe connecting inside and outside of a water tank having a storage space therein for storing cooling water, so as to define a flow path through which steam and air containing radioactive materials generated outside the water tank are discharged into the cooling water, a header part connected to one end portion of the main pipe located in the storage space, and having a storage chamber in which the steam and air transferred through the main pipe are collected, and a plurality of discharge nozzles disposed in a spacing manner, each having inlet and outlet formed on one end located in the storage chamber and another end located in the storage space, respectively, to discharge the steam and air from the storage chamber to the storage space, and at least some of the plurality of discharge nozzles protruding from the header part by different lengths.

A system and a method make a saltwater solution for electrolysis through the process of flowing water through a salt chamber to dissolve salt crystals and outputting the resulting saltwater solution into a saltwater container. The system includes a salt chamber, a remaining quantity of salt crystals, a filter, and a saltwater container. The salt chamber is a chamber that contains the remaining quantity of salt crystals. The salt chamber and the saltwater container are in fluid communication with each other, and thus, the saltwater container can receive the resulting saltwater solution. The salt chamber includes a chamber inlet and a chamber outlet. The filter is connected across the chamber outlet in order to retain undissolved salt crystals within the salt chamber.

A process for producing an aqueous polymer solution, including: (a) providing a hydrated polymer that has been prepared by aqueous solution polymerisation of ethylenically unsaturated monomers, which hydrated polymer contains at least 10% by weight active polymer; (b) cutting the hydrated polymer by subjecting the hydrated polymer to at least one cutting stage containing at least one stream of aqueous liquid at a pressure of at least 150 bar to reduce the size of the hydrated polymer; and (c) dissolving the hydrated polymer in an aqueous liquid so as to obtain an aqueous polymer solution. An apparatus for producing an aqueous polymer solution.

A system for dissolving solid chemical may include three reservoirs positioned in a vertically stacked arrangement. A solid chemical reservoir configured to receive solid chemical to be dissolved may be nested in a solution generator reservoir into which water is introduced to erode the solid chemical. A dissolved chemical reservoir can be positioned under the solid chemical reservoir and the solution generator reservoir. The dissolved chemical reservoir can store solution generated using the system. In some examples, a recirculation circuit is used to recirculate water introduced into the solution generator reservoir until a solution having a target concentration of the chemical being dissolved is achieved. The recirculation circuit may include a recirculation line having an outlet aimed at the bottom wall of the solid chemical reservoir.

An apparatus for accelerated dissolution of carbonates with buffered pH. The apparatus includes a mixer, a dissolution reactor and a pH correction reactor. The mixer includes: a chamber; a water supply; a carbonic gas supply; and a carbonate supply. Water, carbonic gas and carbonate are provided to the chamber in predetermined continuous flow rates to obtain a design flow rate of lean mixture at the outlet. The dissolution reactor includes a duct connected to the chamber receiving the lean mixture and allowing at least partial dissolution of the carbonate which transforms the lean mixture into an ionic mixture according to the reaction CaCO3+CO2+H2O? Ca(HCO3)2. The pH correction reactor comprises a duct and a hydroxide supply. The mixture is then released into the sea. Embodiments also relate to a method for the accelerated dissolution of carbonates with buffered pH for the permanent sequestration of CO2 in the sea in the form of bicarbonates.
