Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of gas-liquid mixing technology, and specifically to an apparatus and method for preparing nanobubble liquid by enhanced gas-liquid two-phase mixing. Background Technology
[0002] Gas-liquid two-phase mixing (reaction) plays a crucial role in the chemical synthesis industry. However, gas and liquid phases are often difficult to mix fully due to poor compatibility, and the rapid separation of the two phases after mixing results in a small unit contact area between the two phases, leading to a reaction rate much lower than its intrinsic reaction rate. Furthermore, the decrease in apparent reaction rate is likely to lead to a decrease in reaction yield and reaction selectivity.
[0003] In traditional industrial production, gas-liquid bubbling and stirred-tank pressurization methods are often used to enhance gas-liquid mixing and reaction. Gas-liquid bubbling is simple to operate, but it is bulky, has short gas-liquid contact time, produces large bubbles, has low mixing efficiency, and lacks uniformity. Stirred-tank pressurization requires high pressure, posing significant safety risks, and the reaction mainly occurs at the gas-liquid interface, leading to uneven and incomplete mixing. Therefore, conventional methods cannot effectively solve the problems of uniform mixing between immiscible gas and liquid phases and improving the apparent reaction rate. Thus, there is an urgent need for a gas-liquid two-phase enhanced mixing (reaction) device and method for preparing nanobubble liquids. Summary of the Invention

[0039] Preparation Example 1: Isobutylene-maleic anhydride copolymer was prepared by mixing and reacting using the apparatus of the present invention.
[0040] In this embodiment, the equivalent diameter d of the gas jet inlet of the micromixer M is... g The equivalent diameter d of the cavity is 0.50 mm. c The equivalent diameter d of the liquid jet inlet is 2.50 mm. l The equivalent diameter d of the fluid outlet is 1.60 mm.o The diameter is 0.80 mm, the angle θ between the gas jet direction and the liquid jet direction is 90°, and the Reynolds number is 11699.
[0041] Following the specific implementation method and operating steps described above, 9.5452 g of maleic anhydride and 0.7500 g of azobisisobutyronitrile were dissolved in 150.0 mL of ethyl acetate at room temperature and injected into the liquid phase raw material storage tank V. p1 The gas is repeatedly pumped in and emptied of air using N2 as an inert gas, and then introduced into the gas buffer storage tank V. p4 5.5 g of isobutylene gas at an absolute pressure of 2.0 atm was introduced into the tank, and the mixture was reacted at 70°C. The mixture was then circulated in storage tank V. p2 Extremely fine bubbles are formed (very few bubbles are visible to the naked eye), with a large number of bubbles at the nanoscale. Dynamic light scattering instrumentation shows that the average diameter of isobutylene bubbles is approximately 250 nm, and the particle size distribution is as follows: Figure 3 As shown. The bubble dispersion initially appeared as a uniform, semi-transparent milky white, gradually becoming opaque as the polymerization reaction progressed. Heating was stopped after 2 hours of mixing and reaction. The ethyl acetate waste liquid was pumped into waste liquid tank V. p5 The exhaust gas is pumped sequentially into the exhaust gas absorption tank V containing DMF. p7 And the waste gas absorption tank containing water V p8 The waste gas and DMF carried away by N2 are absorbed separately. Open the shut-off valve SV3 to allow the circulating mixing tank V to... p2 The product is released, and it is cleaned and dried with ethanol; the device is then circulated for cleaning.
[0042] The polydispersity index (Span) of the isobutylene-maleic anhydride copolymer obtained by mixing and polymerization is 0.50.
[0043] Comparative Example 1: Isobutylene-maleic anhydride copolymer was prepared by mixing and reacting in a high-pressure reactor.
[0044] At room temperature, 1.617 g of maleic anhydride and 0.1271 g of azobisisobutyronitrile were dissolved in 44.6 mL of ethyl acetate, and then added to a 100 mL high-pressure reactor. The high-pressure reactor was shut off, and the air in the reactor was repeatedly evacuated by N2. Isobutylene gas (0.93 g) at an absolute pressure of 2.71 atm was added in batches and dissolved. The polymerization reaction was then carried out in a water bath at 70 °C for 3 hours. Heating was stopped, the solid product in the high-pressure reactor was removed, washed with ethanol, and then dried.
[0045] The polydispersity index (Span) of the isobutylene-maleic anhydride copolymer obtained by mixing and polymerization is 0.64.
[0046] Comparing Preparation Example 1 and Comparative Example 1, it can be found that the isobutylene-maleic anhydride copolymer synthesized in Preparation Example 1 has a narrower viscosity-average molecular weight distribution, and the gas environment pressure and time during the reaction are also lower. The suspension and dispersion performance of the isobutylene-maleic anhydride copolymer dispersant on the slurry was tested using Al2O3 particles with an average diameter of approximately 5 μm. Figure 4 As shown, the results indicate that using the isobutylene-maleic anhydride copolymer synthesized in Preparation Example 1 as a dispersant, the Al2O3 particle slurry has a lower sedimentation rate, and the isobutylene-maleic anhydride copolymer synthesized in Preparation Example 1 has better particle dispersibility.
[0047] Preparation Example 2: Carbon dioxide nano-water bubble liquid was prepared by mixing using the apparatus of the present invention.
[0048] In this embodiment, the equivalent diameter d of the gas jet inlet of the micromixer M is... g The equivalent diameter d of the cavity is 0.50 mm. c The equivalent diameter d of the liquid jet inlet is 2.50 mm. l The equivalent diameter d of the fluid outlet is 1.60 mm. o The diameter is 0.80 mm, the angle θ between the gas jet direction and the liquid jet direction is 90°, and the Reynolds number is 5318.
[0049] At room temperature, 150.0 mL of ultrasonically degassed deionized water was injected into the liquid-phase raw material storage tank V. p1 After venting, the gas is transferred to the gas buffer storage tank V. p4 6.5 g of carbon dioxide gas at an absolute pressure of 2.0 atm was introduced, and the gas-liquid mixture was carried out for 0.5 hours. Circulating mixing tank V p2 A carbon dioxide bubble aqueous dispersion was obtained, and the particle size and distribution of the bubble aqueous dispersion were measured using a dynamic light scattering instrument. The average diameter of the bubbles was 690 nm, indicating that the carbon dioxide bubbles were nanoscale and had a small particle size.
[0050] Comparative Example 2: Carbon dioxide-water vaporized liquid was prepared by mixing gas and liquid using a gas-liquid bubbling method.
[0051] High-pressure carbon dioxide gas with an absolute pressure of approximately 5.0 atm was bubbled into water, generating a large number of visible carbon dioxide bubbles that rapidly rose and collapsed due to self-acceleration, indicating the presence of a large number of bubbles with a particle size much larger than 10 μm. Therefore, the bubbles prepared by the gas-liquid bubbling method are much larger than the carbon dioxide nano-water bubble liquid prepared in Preparation Example 2.

All technical solutions falling within the scope of the present invention's concept are within the scope of protection of the present invention. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, any improvements and modifications made without departing from the principles of the present invention should be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
