摘要:
A regulating slide valve apparatus having a housing which forms a duct through which a gaseous or liquid medium can flow having an inlet longitudinal portion, an outlet longitudinal portion, and an adjustable regulating element for varying the flow cross section of the duct and adjusting the throughflow rate. A seat ring element is provided in the duct, the regulating element has a first longitudinal portion which has a circular cross section with diameters that vary in the longitudinal direction, and the regulating element is adjustable in the longitudinal direction of the duct along an adjustment travel. In a closure position the regulating element lies against the seat ring element and closes the duct and, in an open position, forms an annular gap through which flow can pass, with the seat ring element. The varying diameters along the first longitudinal portion of the regulating element are configured such that the change in the cross-sectional area through which flow can pass, of the annular gap with the adjustment of the regulating element in the longitudinal direction, is such that the volume flow through the annular gap varies approximately linearly with the adjustment of the regulating element along the adjustment travel.

An air-powered water circulation system for ponds, lakes, municipal water tanks, and other bodies of water having a draft tube extending along and about a vertical axis between upper and lower end portions and supported by a flotation arrangement with the upper end portion slightly below the water surface. A pneumatic, air flow arrangement is then provided to supply pressurized air from an aft pump to a plurality of submerged air pipes positioned within the draft tube below the upper end portion thereof and extending inwardly from a submerged manifold toward the interior of the draft tube. In operation, pressurized air is supplied from the air pump through an air delivery conduit to the submerged air manifold and into the submerged air pipes where it is discharged as air bubbles through series of discharge holes extending along the pipes to create an overall circulation pattern in the body of water.

An aerator for aerating water comprises a distribution system for distributing air below the water surface and a compressor with an air inlet and at least one air outlet. The compressor is configured to be placed below the water surface. The infiltration of water at the air inlet is prevented by an intake pipe with one open end above the water surface and the other open end has a watertight connection to the compressor. The distribution system has a watertight connection to the air outlet and, due to its nature or by at least one valve, can hold back water. The housing is in thermal contact with the water to cool the compressor. The compressor is a centrifugal compressor that comprises an impeller that is driven by a shaft that it is mounted on air bearings, magnetic bearings or both.

Apparatus for use during open system diving to support underwater human respiration. In accordance with various embodiments, an air supply provides a supply of air along a supply conduit. A regulator is adapted for engagement with a diver's mouth to receive air from the supply during an inhale cycle and to direct a mixture of water and exhaust air away from the diver along an exhaust conduit during an exhale cycle. An air/water separator separates the exhaust air from the water in said mixture and directs the separated exhaust air through an exhaust air port. In some embodiments, a one-way stop valve is provided within the air/water separator to prevent back flow. In further embodiments, a bubble diffuser emits the exhaust air as a fine mist of bubbles into the surrounding water.

A system for the confinement of pollutants on water surfaces until collected or chemically dispersed. The system effects its confining action by generating a curtain or barrier of air bubbles which at the surface of the water form a series of overlapping aerated water hills capable of blocking the passage of a pollutant, such as oil film, therethrough. The system is designed to enable it to provide a continuous barrier of aerated water hills over long period of use and even though it may be installed on harbor and waterway bottoms where silty conditions prevail. This is accomplished by a pipe for supplying compressed gas to an outlet comprising a nozzle plate having an orifice of a size to allow a metered amount of air to pass with a check valve located downstream of the nozzle plate.

A process for removing a petroleum spirit fraction and also an oil fraction from a cracking gas stream in an oil scrub column, wherein, the ratio of the amount of substance of the petroleum spirit fraction recycled into the benzene section at the top per unit time to the amount of substance of the cracking gas introduced into the oil section per unit time is in a range from 1:16 to 1:10, preferably 1:12 to 1:10.
摘要:
An air diffuser system contains a manifold and a plurality of elastomeric "duckbilled" check valves. The manifold is constructed from a conduit material and can be arranged in many different configurations. The valves are made from an elastomeric material, such as rubber, preventing the valves from being clogged with sludge, sediment, or other debris commonly found in waste treatment water. Additionally, the valves can be bored with predetermined orifice sizes, allowing the volume and pressure of escaping air to be determined prior to installation. To make installation of the valves easier, various types of coupling devices may be used to attach the valves to the manifold. Examples of coupling devices include restrictive orifices, "Y"-shaped conduits, and nipple conduits. Multiple valves can also be fabricated on a common cuff prior to installation.
摘要:
A system for cleaning water in rivers or lakes or for separating oil and water. The system includes a sucking pipe; vapor-liquid mixing device connecting to the sucking pipe; a pressure pump disposed midway of the sucking pipe; a compressor connected to the connection between the pressure pump and the vapor-liquid mixing device; a pressure tank connected to the vapor-liquid mixing device; a feed pipe connected to the pressure tank; and a pressure valve, attached to the leading end of the feed pipe, which opens at a pressure exceeding a predetermined level. According to this system, the construction can be simplified, and the lifting action by the bubbles can be effected by keeping the pressure of the liquid at a predetermined level or more at all times. Thus, the system can be used anywhere under all circumstances.
摘要:
A gas diffuser including a conically-shaped diffuser cone having a plurality of openings formed along the base circumference of the cone for liberating small gas bubbles. Connected to an opening formed in the apex of the cone is a hydrostatic leg depending therefrom. The length of the hydrostatic leg is designed such that during normal operation no gas will pass therethrough. The openings in the diffuser cone include an outer entrance opening and a recessed inner entrance opening. The inner opening is of square shape to release a small bubble. The top of the diffuser cone includes a unique seat and latch connecting arrangement that enables the diffuser to be installed in an opening in gas header pipes of varying diameters.
