摘要:
A method of cleaning a submerged surface covered by a liquid medium includes injecting a cleaning liquid with a submerged fluid jet through the liquid medium at the submerged surface. The method may also include introducing at least one of a non-reactive gas and a reactive gas with the cleaning liquid through the submerged fluid jet.

A method is described comprising: providing a first heated volume flow of pressurized gas, a second volume flow of pre-heated dilution gas, and a third volume flow of fluid. A concentrated first aerosol is generated by exhausting at least a part of the first volume flow of pressurized gas and the third volume flow of fluid through a nozzle. A fourth volume flow of gas of opposite direction to the concentrated first aerosol is generated such that the concentrated first aerosol is arrested. Evaporation of the aerosol solvent is augmented with infrared radiation. The arrested first aerosol is then mixed with the second volume flow of dilution gas for generating a second aerosol that has been diluted. This aerosol is then concentrated with a virtual impactor.

A concentrator for increasing the particle concentration in an aerosol flow is described. The concentrator comprises a sculptured acceleration plate with a number of slit-shaped and radially extending acceleration channels and a sculptured deceleration plate with a number of slit-shaped and radially extending deceleration plate channels. Acceleration channel exit openings are spaced from a base surface on an exit side of the acceleration plate and sculptured deceleration channel entry openings are spaced from a base surface on an entry side of the deceleration plate so that a relatively large gap is provided between the acceleration plate base surface and the deceleration plate base surface allowing a waste volume flow to be exhausted through this relatively large gap at low flow resistance. The plurality of openings comprises openings of at least two different lengths.

A spray device includes a nozzle that forms a channel for supplying liquid to at least one opening for spraying the liquid outside the device, and, close to the opening, a first and a second electrode arranged in such a way as to inject electric charges into the liquid. The edge of the opening includes, on one side of the channel, at least one projecting end of the first electrode that projects into the channel and is to be brought into contact with the liquid, and on the other side of the channel, an electrically insulating nozzle body in which the second electrode is embedded adjacently to the first electrode, in such a way that the intensity of the electrostatic field in the or each projecting end is maximised.

A method of forming droplets comprises flowing a liquid through a channel; spreading the liquid into a thin film in the channel; and impinging the thin film with a flowing gas to atomize the liquid into droplets. The droplets may then be dried to produce dried particles, such as particles comprising a pharmaceutical active agent. The droplets formed by the disclosed process have improved size and/or size distribution characteristics.

In particular a porous substrate (FS) like a fabric. Process to clean a substrate, comprising a step of subjecting the substrate to an air-water spray (SPR), generated using a spraying means (N) comprising an air passage (OPA) and a water passage (OPW), wherein air is greater than 90% by volume of the spray, the air velocity is greater than 80 m/s and wherein said air passage does not coaxially surround said water passage. Device to clean soiled fabric (FS) comprising a feed water container (CW) and an air compressor (AC) in fluid communication with a spray nozzle (N) comprising an air passage and a water passage, said device being capable of generating an air pressure in the range of 1 to 3 bar (absolute) and an air velocity greater than 80 m/s at the exit of said nozzle; and the air is greater than 90% volume of said spray, and wherein said air passage does not coaxially surround said water passage. An external mix spray nozzle is especially preferred in the device.

Embodiments of a nozzle reactor of the type useable to inject a first material feed stock and a second material feed stock to cause interaction between the first material feed stock and second material feed stock are described herein. According to one embodiment, the nozzle reactor includes a reactor body having a reactor body passage with an injection end and an ejection end. The nozzle reactor also includes a first material injector having a first material injection passage and being mounted in the nozzle reactor in material injecting communication with the injection end of the reactor body. The first material injection passage can have an enlarged volume injection section, an enlarged volume ejection section, and a reduced volume mid-section intermediate the enlarged volume injection section and the enlarged volume ejection section. The first material injection passage can also have a material injection end and a material ejection end in injecting communication with the reactor body passage. The nozzle also includes a second material feed port penetrating the reactor body and being adjacent to the material ejection end of the first material injection passage and transverse to a first material injection passage axis extending from the material injection end and material ejection end in the first material injection passage in the first material injector.
