Device and Method for Heat and Mass-Exchange between Gas and Liquid

摘要

A device for heat, mass, and chemical exchange and interaction between gases and liquids. Nozzles feed the gas at angles in different directions to form a gas-liquid mix, swirls, and/or foam above an array of such nozzles.

主权项

1. A device for mixing fluids, comprising:
a substantially upward path for a first fluid; nozzles forming a substantially two-dimensional grid across the path for the first fluid to pass through the grid; and a means for injecting a second fluid into the path above the grid; wherein a plurality of nozzles are shaped and positioned within the grid so as for the first fluid passing through the grid
to form within the path above the grid for each of the plurality of nozzles at least one jet of the first fluid;for a plurality of the jets to interact to form within the path above the grid non-linear flow of the first fluid; andfor the non-linear flow of the first fluid to contact and interact within the path above the grid with the second fluid injected into the path.
