The present invention provides, inter alia, an apparatus for generating a mist. The apparatus includes (a) a first transport fluid passage having a first transport fluid inlet, a first transport fluid outlet, and a throat portion intermediate the first transport fluid inlet and the first transport fluid outlet, the throat portion having a cross sectional area which is less than that of either the first transport fluid inlet or the first transport fluid outlet; (b) at least one working fluid passage located radially outwardly of the first transport fluid passage and having a working fluid inlet and a working fluid outlet; (c) at least one second transport fluid passage having a second transport fluid inlet and a second transport fluid outlet in fluid communication with the working fluid passage; and (d) an outlet nozzle in fluid communication with the first transport fluid and working fluid outlets, wherein the second transport fluid passage has an outlet located in the working fluid passage upstream of the working fluid outlet. Systems and methods of generating a mist using such an apparatus are also provided. Methods for fire suppression and decontamination using such an apparatus are further provided. Mists generated using such an apparatus are further provided.
