Typical Applications.

Aeration – Air sparging to meet BOD (Biological Oxygen Demand) on waste stream.

Agitation – Air injection for mixing liquids in a vessel.

Bioremediation – Air sparging to stimulate growth of bacteria for hazardous waste treatment.

Carbonation – CO₂ sparging for carbonated beverages and beer.

Chlorine bleaching – Chlorine sparging for bleaching pulp in manufacture of paper.

Column flotation – Air sparging for coal flotation, and other separations of solids.

Dewatering – Nitrogen sparging to remove entrained water from motor oil.

Fermentation – Oxygen or air sparging to enhance cell growth in fermentation reactions.

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.

Oil flotation – Air or natural gas sparging for oil removal from produced water from oil wells.

Oxygen bleaching – Oxygen sparging for bleaching pulp in manufacture of paper.

Oxygen stripping – Nitrogen sparging to remove oxygen from edible oils, wine, and juices.

Oxygenation – Oxygen sparging in fish farming for significant stimulation of fish growth.

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.
