摘要:
The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for pretreating a polymeric material in a treatment chamber. The method includes providing a polymeric material component into the treatment chamber and introducing a carbon dioxide fluid in supercritical state therein. The component is exposed to the carbon dioxide fluid to extract non-volatile organic residue contained in the component. The contaminated carbon dioxide fluid containing the extracted non-volatile organic residue is removed from the treatment chamber such that the organic residue does not deposit onto the polymeric material component by depressurizing the treatment chamber. Thereafter, the component is removed from the treatment chamber.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for injecting a gas into a liquid in which a rotating helical impeller within a draft tube submerged in the liquid creates a liquid flow within the draft tube. Gas bubbles are injected into the draft tube either above or below or alongside the helical impeller or in all three locations. The liquid is drawn into the draft tube with a superficial velocity greater than a substantially uniform terminal ascent velocity of the gas bubbles to allow entrainment of undissolved gas bubbles in the bulk liquid into the liquid being drawn into the draft tube. The gas bubbles are injected with a uniform diameter of between about 10.0 microns and about 1.0 millimeters. The small bubble size enhances the dissolution of the gas into the liquid and also allow the entrainment of the gas into the liquid being drawn into the draft tube.
