Sintered sparger increase the surface area almost 8-10 times then a drilled pipe sparger. The gas is dispersed as a fine mist increasing the mass transfer area – so reactions when liquid-gas interphase reactions are carried out, the increased surface area enhances the reactions. 100% seamless construction for best corrosion resistance.

2. Introduction
Liquid -Gas interphase reactions use sintered sparger with tiny pores
producing millions of tiny droplets increasing the mass transfer surface area of
reactions.
Sintered sparger increase the surface area almost 8-10 times then a drilled
pipe sparger.

4. Sparger Design
Sintered sparger with vacuum fused sintered metal tubes/plates.
Static and Dynamic sparger are configured for effective sparging applications.
The designs could be from a single element to manifolded multiple element
system.
Easy to install and very effective and efficient gas/liquid contacting solutions
are designed.

6. Operation
The gas is dispersed as a fine mist increasing the mass transfer area – so
reactions when liquid-gas interphase reactions are carried out, the increased
surface area enhances the reactions.

7. Technical Specifications
Sintered metallurgy which is vacuum fused bringing in ductility and strength
for these applications.
A wide range of metallurgy spargers are constructed entirely of metal, to
provide long-lasting operation even in temperature range as high as 450 Deg C
under oxidizing conditions and 550 Deg C in reducing conditions.
Wide range of materials including 316L , 304, stainless steel (standard), Nickel,
Titanium, Monel® 400, Inconel® 600, Hastelloy® C-22/C-276/X, 321 904L etc.

8. Applications and Uses
Aeration – Air sparging to meet BOD (Biological Oxygen Demand) on waste
stream.
Agitation – Air injection for mixing liquids in a vessel.
Gas/liquid reactions – Sparging air, oxygen, or other gases into reactors for
improved performance.
Hydrogenation – Hydrogen sparging for a broad spectrum of chemical
hydrogenation reactions.
Ozonation – Ozone sparging to sanitize ultrapure water systems in
pharmaceutical plants.
pH control – CO2 or NH3 sparging to adjust pH in waste or process streams.
Steam injection – Direct steam injection for efficient heating, and to eliminate
“steam hammer.”
Volatiles stripping – Air sparging for removal of VOC (Volatile Organic
Compounds) from waste streams.

9. Advantages
Uniform flow through whole construction.
Uniform bubbles for effective gas transfer
Long residence time of bubbles in liquid
High contact area gas/liquid
Reduced dissolving time for gas in liquid
Reduced gas quantities for equal results
(e.g. comparison to punching metal tube)
100% seamless construction for best
corrosion resistance.
