    Volume of air bubbles coming from sparger

    Hi all, I'm scratching my head for a while now trying to figure this one out. I want to make an air sparger, but instead of using a tube of some sort with holes in it, I'd like to try something different. Imagine a funnel, 10 ft diameter, flipped up-side-down. The funnel is submerged in a vessel...

    Air dispersion in viscous liquid

    Lots of insightful suggestions, many thanks to all. A sintered filter would work marvels in this case; my concern would be that the medium I would need to use it in would likely clog the filter after the first use. But it's definitely worth giving it a shot. Thanks! The DAF technology looks a...

    Air dispersion in viscous liquid

    Thanks BigInch, 10:1 does sound like a high ratio, and I'm certain I'll have to tweak around with it once I have a setup going. I don't expect to have all the air dispersed in the polymer (I'd be happy with half of that air to be entrapped in the solution).

    Air dispersion in viscous liquid

    Hi, I want to foam up a polymer solution in an inexpensive manner, in a continuous process. I am thinking of intimately mixing air with the polymer at high pressure (10 bar) such that when the air/polymer mix exits the high pressure conditions the air expansion will cause the foaming effect. The...
