Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The multi-fluid mixer invented by us is usable to generate micro-bubbles and mists, i.e. fine droplet, with a lower power supply such as a solar cell. Using the mixer, dissolution of oxygen and carbon dioxide (CO2) micro-bubbles into water, adsorption of CO2 in air with the mists, being useful for environmental preservation, and a special air-lift-pump for mining deep-sea resources, were studied experimentally. The results were opened by 6 international journal papers for social contribution.
