Abstract
A method of evaporating a fluid is provided. The method comprises forming a flow with toroidal vortices in the fluid, such that the fluid is exposed to alternating flow velocities and alternating pressures, thereby increasing evaporation of the fluid. A method of precipitating salt out of an aqueous solution is also provided. The method comprises forming a flow with toroidal vortices in the aqueous solution, such that the aqueous solution is exposed to alternating flow velocities and alternating pressures, thereby initiating precipitation of salts from the solution.
Claims18
A method of precipitating salt out of an aqueous solution, comprising steps of:
- providing the aqueous solution of one or more salts;
- and
- forming a flow with toroidal vortices in the aqueous solution, such that the aqueous solution is exposed to periodically alternating flow velocities and periodically alternating pressures, wherein the flow with toroidal vortices has a relative permittivity of 25-30, thereby initiating precipitation of salts from the solution.
A method of forming salt particles, comprising steps of:
- providing an aqueous solution of one or more salts;
- forming a flow with toroidal vortices in the aqueous solution, such that the aqueous solution is exposed to periodically alternating flow velocities and periodically alternating pressures, wherein the flow with toroidal vortices has a relative permittivity of 25-30, thereby initiating precipitation of salts from the solution;
- and
- separating salt particles from an aqueous suspension formed by precipitation of salts from the aqueous solution.
