Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of micro-nano bubble observation technology, specifically to a micro-nano bubble observation device and observation method. Background Technology
[0002] Micro- and nanobubbles are a class of tiny bubbles with diameters in the micrometer and nanometer ranges. Although different scholars may define their diameter range slightly differently, most generally refer to bubbles with a diameter of less than 100 μm as micro- and nanobubbles. Compared with traditional bubbles, micro- and nanobubbles have the characteristics of small volume, large specific surface area, long existence time, good mass transfer efficiency, high surface potential, strong biological activity, and the ability to generate free radicals. Among them, the hydroxyl radicals generated by micro- and nanobubbles have strong oxidizing properties and are non-selective in the removal of pollutants, effectively removing various organic pollutants, recalcitrant pollutants, and pathogenic microorganisms from water.
[0003] In recent years, the actual state and stability mechanism of micro and nanobubbles at the microscale have become a new research hotspot, such as the behavior of nanobubbles in liquid environments and their survival characteristics. Therefore, a method for directly observing the state of nanobubbles in liquid environments is urgently needed.
[0004] Current methods for observing micro and nanobubbles mainly include scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, and in-situ observation techniques. Each of these methods has its own limitations, as detailed below:
[0005] 1. Non-in-situ and destructive nature of traditional observation methods: Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) in existing technologies may introduce new bubbles during the freezing process, while atomic force microscopy (AFM) requires physical contact with bubbles. Neither of these methods can achieve in-situ non-destructive observation of bubbles in the liquid environment.
[0006] 2. Inability to simultaneously measure concentration and dynamic parameters: Existing optical observation technology can only measure bubble size and cannot quantitatively analyze the dynamic relationship between concentration and its pressure and flow rate;
[0007] 3. Limited observation angle: Traditional microscope observation is limited by a fixed viewing angle, making it difficult to capture the three-dimensional shape of bubbles and unable to measure the true diameter of bubbles;
[0008] 4. Experimental costs and operational complexity: Equipment such as scanning electron microscopes are expensive and require professional personnel to operate.
[0009] To reduce experimental costs and operational difficulties, avoid the influence of the measurement process on the bubbles, and improve the accuracy of bubble diameter measurements, a micro / nano bubble observation device and method are needed to address the aforementioned issues.

Detailed Implementation
[0069] The invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a thorough understanding of the invention. However, the invention can be practiced in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar extensions without departing from the spirit of the invention. Therefore, the invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0070] The micro-nano bubble observation device and its observation method disclosed in this application can be applied to situations such as pressure-controlled micro-nano bubble volume and concentration analysis and testing, and can also be used in other similar application scenarios. The following is a detailed description of a micro-nano bubble observation device.
[0071] See appendix Figure 1 — Figure 5 The diagram illustrates a micro / nano bubble observation device according to this application. The device includes a microscope observation module 2, a rotatable flow channel module 3, and a collaborative control module 4. The micro / nano bubble generation module 1 cyclically generates micro / nano bubbles. The microscope observation module 2 is used to observe micro / nano bubbles in a micro / nano bubble solution. The rotatable flow channel module 3 provides a flow channel for the micro / nano bubble solution and allows for horizontal and vertical rotation of the flow channel. The collaborative control module 4 is used to draw and transport the micro / nano bubble solution into the rotatable flow channel module 3, and to regulate and monitor the pressure of the micro / nano bubble solution.
[0072] See appendix Figure 1 — Figure 5 As shown, in this invention, the micro-nano bubble generating module 1 includes a water storage tank 11 and a micro-nano bubble generator 12, with an inlet pipe 13 and an outlet pipe 14 disposed on the micro-nano bubble generator 12; wherein, one end of the inlet pipe 13 is disposed at the water inlet end of the micro-nano bubble generator 12, and one end of the outlet pipe 14 is disposed at the water outlet end of the micro-nano bubble generator 12, and the other ends of the inlet pipe 13 and the outlet pipe 14 are both connected to the water storage tank 11.
[0073] The working process of the micro-nano bubble generating module 1 is as follows: the micro-nano bubble generator 12 draws the solution in the water storage tank 11 into the micro-nano bubble generator 12 through the water inlet pipe 13, generates micro-nano bubble solution in the micro-nano bubble generator 12, and then discharges the micro-nano bubble solution through the water outlet pipe 14 and re-enters the water storage tank 11.
[0074] See appendix Figure 1 As shown, in this invention, the microscope observation module 2 includes an optical microscope 21, a CCD camera 22 mounted on top of the optical microscope 21, a data transmission line 23 mounted on the CCD camera 22, and a computer 24 connected to the other end of the data transmission line 23.
[0075] This invention uses an optical microscope 21 to magnify the micro-nano bubble solution located in the micro-nano bubble channel 33, ensuring that the CCD camera 22 can capture images of the micro-nano bubble solution within the channel 33. The CCD camera 22 is configured to capture images of the micro-nano bubble solution. A data transmission line 23 is used to transmit the video captured by the CCD camera 22 to a computer 24. The computer 24, in conjunction with ImageJ+TrackMate software, analyzes the micro-nano bubbles in the video to obtain data such as the size and movement distance of each micro-nano bubble.
[0076] See appendix Figure 1 — Figure 5 As shown, in this invention, the rotatable flow channel module 3 is mounted on the rotating structure 31 on the stage of the optical microscope 21. An observation plate 32 made of transparent material is mounted on the rotating structure 31. A micro / nano bubble flow channel 33 is disposed on the observation plate 32. The inlet end of the micro / nano bubble flow channel 33 is connected to the sampling tube 41, and the outlet end of the micro / nano bubble flow channel 33 is provided with a return pipe 34. The other end of the return pipe 34 is connected to a waste liquid pool 35. It should be noted that the rotating structure 31 is existing technology and can be a piezoelectric ceramic rotating stage with multi-angle rotation, or a BW-WMG3T electric multi-dimensional rotating stage, or other existing dual-axis or multi-axis rotating stages capable of horizontal or vertical rotation. Therefore, the rotating structure 31 will not be described in detail.
[0077] The present invention uses a rotating structure 31 to drive the observation plate 32 to rotate and move, so that the CCD camera 22 can observe micro- and nano-bubbles; the observation plate 32 is equipped with micro- and nano-bubble channels 33, which allow the micro- and nano-bubble solution to flow; and the return pipe 34 is used to guide the micro- and nano-bubble solution flowing out of the micro- and nano-bubble channels 33 and transport it to the waste liquid pool 35, which, together with the waste liquid pool 35, prevents the micro- and nano-bubble solution after observation from affecting the observation structure.
[0078] See appendix Figure 1 As shown, in this invention, the collaborative control module 4 includes a sampling tube 41 for connecting the water storage tank 11 and the observation plate 32, a microfluidic pump 42 installed on the sampling tube 41, and a dynamic pressure feedback actuator 43 set on the sampling tube 41. The dynamic pressure feedback actuator 43 is located at the outlet end of the microfluidic pump 42.
[0079] This invention utilizes a sampling tube 41, in conjunction with a microfluidic pump 42, to draw and transport the micro / nano bubble solution from the water storage tank 11 into the micro / nano bubble flow channel 33. A dynamic pressure feedback actuator 43 is used to regulate and monitor the pressure of the solution entering the micro / nano bubble flow channel 33. It should be specifically noted that the inlet pipe 13, outlet pipe 14, return pipe 34, and sampling tube 41 are all flexible tubes.
[0080] See appendix Figure 1 As shown in Figure 9, the working process of this observation device is as follows:
[0081] First, micro-nano bubbles are generated in the water storage tank 11 using a micro-nano bubble generator 12. The resulting bubble particle size generally ranges from [missing value]. The concentration of bubbles produced is generally between [a certain range]. Under the control of the microfluidic pump 42, the micro-nano bubble solution in the water storage tank 11 is pumped into the micro-nano bubble channel 33. The pressure of the micro-nano bubble solution is adjusted by the dynamic pressure feedback actuator 43. The morphology and distribution of the bubbles are observed by the optical microscope 21. The angle of observation of the micro-nano bubble solution is changed by rotating the structure 31. By using an appropriate magnification and cooperating with the transmission light source to illuminate the micro-nano bubble solution, the image is ensured to be clear. The CCD camera 22 installed on the optical microscope 21 runs at a speed of 30 frames per second and can capture video files of the movement of micro-nano bubbles in the water. The size, morphology and distribution information of micro-nano bubbles are observed in real time, and the identity of bubbles under different rotation angles is verified. The micro-nano bubble image / video at a certain angle is identified by the image processing software ImageJ+TrackMate, and the displacement of each micro-nano bubble along the three-dimensional coordinate system x-axis, y-axis and z-axis and the diameter of each micro-nano bubble are obtained, thereby calculating the micro-nano bubble concentration and the average diameter of the micro-nano bubbles.

[0085] S3. Micro-nano bubble solution one is adjusted and controlled by the collaborative regulation module 4 to form micro-nano bubble solution two, and micro-nano bubble solution two is transported into the observation plate 32;
[0086] S4. After the micro-nano bubble solution 2 fills the observation plate 32, the observation plate 32 is rotated by the rotating structure 31. At the same time, the microscope observation module 2 takes a video of the flow of the micro-nano bubble solution 2 in the observation plate 32.
[0087] S5. Process the video using image processing software ImageJ+TrackMate to obtain the observation results;
