Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Anordnung (1) zur Vermischung von Kohlendioxid mit Wasser, wobei das Kohlendioxid in eine mit Zapfhähnen (10) verbundene Kreisleitung (6) eingegeben wird, in welcher Kreisleitung (6) eine Förderpumpe (7) angeordnet ist. Um eine gattungsgemäße Anordnung im Hinblick auf eine verbesserte Kühlung weiterzubilden, wird vorgeschlagen, dass das mit Kohlendioxid vermischte Wasser ständig mittels einer Kälteanlage (13) gekühlt ist.

The invention relates to an arrangement (1) for mixing carbon dioxide with water, the carbon dioxide being introduced into a circuit (6) connected to taps (10), in which circuit (6) a feed pump (7) is arranged. In order to develop a generic arrangement with a view to improved cooling, it is proposed that the water mixed with carbon dioxide is constantly cooled by means of a refrigeration system (13).
