Abstract
Methods and apparatuses for processing product components. The methods include directing a first jet of fluid along a first path and directing a second jet of fluid along a second path to cause interaction between the jets that forms a stream oriented essentially opposite to one of the jet paths.
Claims35
An apparatus for processing product components comprising,
- two nozzles configured to deliver respective jets of liquid along two different substantially opposite and substantially co-linear paths, and
- an elongated confinement chamber configured to receive the respective jets of liquid at opposite ends thereof and in which the two paths meet, the confinement chamber being configured to form a stream of fluid from the two jets of liquid, the stream of fluid following a path that is in substantially the opposite direction from one of the paths of one of the jets of liquid so that the stream of fluid interacts with one of the jets of liquid within the elongated confinement chamber.
An apparatus for processing product components, comprising
- two nozzles aligned opposite one another and configured to deliver respective jets of liquid along two different substantially opposite and substantially co-linear paths,
- an elongated confinement chamber disposed between the two nozzles to receive the respective jets of liquid at opposite ends thereof, the chamber including reactors and seals, the confinement chamber being configured to form a stream of fluid from the two jets of liquid, the stream of fluid following a path that is in substantially the opposite direction from one of the paths of one of the jets of liquid so that the stream of fluid interacts with one of the jets of liquid within the elongated confinement chamber.
