Abstract

The subject application is directed to a system and method for alteration of gas content in a liquid. The system includes a flow-through device, such as a vena contracta, converging/diverging nozzle, or orifice plate, which allows the saturation of a gas in water to exceed 100 percent. A flow of water is directed toward the outlet end of the flow-through device and a flow of gas is directed into the inlet end thereof. The flow of air passes through an orifice in the flow-through device and creates a shock wave adjacent the outlet end thereof. The shock wave creates a mass transfer interface permitting the super-saturation of gas in the water. The supersaturated water then exits past the flow-through device for discharge through a piping system into a pond, water reservoir or such containment area as is required by a particular application.
