Deaerator oxygen removal calc. needed!

(OP)
I am looking for the necessary calculations needed to find the pick-up velocity for a deaerator.  Currently orange juice is entering the deaerator with 8ppm of oxygen and I need to verify that the orange juice will leave with 3ppm of oxygen.  Any help would great, thanks alot.

RE: Deaerator oxygen removal calc. needed!

I would've thought you'd be better off performing trials using an oxygen meter and ajdusting your parameters accordingly. Oxygen dissolution in orange juice sounds like a specialised application which is unlikely to have applicable formula.

How is your deaerator designed (parameters)?Vacuum stripping ? Steam stripping?
