Problems solved by technology

[0013] However, the dissolution tank in Patent Document 4 has the following problems: in order to promote sufficient dissolution of carbon dioxide and efficiently process a large amount of carbon dioxide, the volume of the dissolution tank increases; The length of the path, that is, the height dimension of the dissolution tank becomes longer, etc.
As a micro-foaming device, for example, the above-mentioned micro-foam generating device has been developed, but since the dissolution of carbon dioxide is carried out under a high-pressure state (8-20 MPa) above 8MPa, it cannot be used in principle in a micro-foam generating device. open device
In addition, micro-foam generating devices of the jet type and swirling flow type have not been proven under high pressure conditions, and in order to be suitable for high pressure conditions, the mechanism is complicated, so there are problems of insufficient reliability and durability.

[0100] figure 1 The fine bubble device 7A of the first embodiment shown, in the two carbon dioxide underground storage systems exemplified later, uses seawater and / or water as a solvent in the case of the first configuration form, and uses seawater and / or water as the solvent in the second configuration form. Under the circumstances, carbon dioxide dissolved in water is used as a solvent. For the main pipeline 30 that makes these solvents flow at a specified high flow rate, a carbon dioxide supply pipeline 31 embedded on it is arranged, and the pipeline wall that separates the above solvent and carbon dioxide , in the case of the illustrated example, the pores 30a, 30a... are formed on the pipeline wall surface of the main pipeline 30, and the liquid compressed to a liquid or supercritical state is compressed by the shear force of the solvent flowing in the above-mentioned main pipeline 30.

Abstract

A high-pressure apparatus for forming fine bubbles of carbon dioxide is provided with which carbon dioxide can be efficiently mixed in the form of fine bubbles with a solvent at a high rate under high-pressure conditions. The apparatus includes a main pipe line (30) in which a solvent flows at a given high velocity and a supply pipe line (31) for the carbon dioxide, the pipe line (31) having been fitted from outside to the whole periphery of the pipe line (30). The pipe line wall which separates the solvent from the carbon dioxide has fine holes (30a) formed therein. The carbon dioxide is caused to come into the solvent while being formed into fine bubbles by the shear force of the solvent flowing in the main pipe line (30).The flow velocity of the solvent and the diameter of the fine holes are set so as to result in a Weber number (We) of 10 or larger.

Description
