FLUID HAMMERS, HYDRODYNAMIC SIRENS, STREAM REACTORS, IMPLEMENTATION OF SAME, AND METHODS FOR TREATMENT OF FLUIDS

摘要

A fluid hammer / siren can operate in fast valve mode with no leakage flow. A stream reactor and process for chemical reaction acceleration provides a flow of liquid or gas forming jets, streams, vortices, or walls of cavities / bubbles that collide with each other or with other liquid, solid, or gaseous interfaces with energies (defined as the sum of molecular kinetic plus thermal energy) in excess of a chemical reaction activation energy. Wastewater treatment methods accelerate suspended particles to high velocity in a fluid flow and then decelerate rapidly by stopping the flow for accelerated inertial-force driven separation.
