  • Patent number: 11673072
    Abstract: A process of mass transfer is described which utilises latent heat transfer with little or sensible heat transfer. In a preferred process microbubbles are used under certain conditions of contact with a liquid phase to ensure highly effective mass transfer between a gaseous and liquid phase with significantly less than expected or little or no sensible heat transfer. The present invention in part provides a means by which the known state of a cold liquid of varying depths can be changed using a hot gas injected via a micro bubble inducing internal mixing without allowing the resultant mixture to reach equilibrium thereby ensuring the transfer process becomes continuous. Thus a process is described wherein at least one gaseous phase is contacted with at least one liquid phase such that the heat ratio of the system (AA) is maintained at an a value of greater than 0.5, and the mass transfer is effected by passing a gaseous phase comprising microbubbles through a liquid phase of thickness no more than 10 cm.

  • Publication number: 20220168697
    Abstract: A fluidic oscillator includes at least one inlet port (57) in communication with at least two outlets (61) via a nozzle region and two outlet conduits (58, 62), the two outlet conduits being separated from each other by a splitter region. Each outlet conduit includes a resonance chamber (60) in fluid communication with the conduit. The resonance chambers contribute to controlling the oscillation of the device. The fluidic oscillator is operatable in an acoustic switching mode.

  • Publication number: 20220125712
    Abstract: The present invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions of an non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAIDs) such as, aspirin, diclofenac, ibuprofen, ketoprofen, or naproxen, or any pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates, or prodrugs thereof, and the medical use of these compositions. The compositions, which can be formulated for topical administration, can provide extended release of the NSAIDs. The compositions of the invention are useful, for example, in the prophylactic treatment or treatment and/or reduction of pain, in the prophylactic treatment or treatment of headaches such as migraine headaches and symptoms of migraine headaches, and in the treatment of temporomandibular disorders (TMD).

  • Patent number: 10377651
    Abstract: Uses of a method of producing small bubbles of gas in a liquid include gas transfer in airlift bioreactors and anaerobic digesters, and particle separation. The method uses a source of the gas under pressure, a conduit opening into a liquid and oscillating the gas passing along the conduit. The oscillation is effected by fluidic oscillator, comprising a diverter that divides the supply into respect outputs, each output being controlled by a control port, wherein the control ports are interconnected by a closed loop. Separation of algae from water involves delivering a laminar flow of microbubbles in the range 10 to 100 ?m diameter. Such bubbles also deliver a laminar flow in bioreactors that delivers enhanced liquid flow despite the small bubbles, which improves mixing and also enhances efficiency of gas exchange and retention of the bubbles in the reactor.
