Abstract
A system may include a nanobubble generator that uses a shearing force applied by a fluid received through a fluid inlet and a negative pressure applied to an outlet by a pump to provide a vacuum-assisted shear flow nanobubble generator system. In some implementations, the system may include a nanobubble generator including a porous component including a chamber coupled to receive a gas and including a surface having a plurality of gas-permeable openings. The nanobubble generator may include an inlet and an outlet on opposing sides of the porous component to direct the fluid across the openings. The system may include a pump to apply a negative pressure to the outlet of the nanobubble generator. The negative fluid pressure and the fluid flow across the openings cooperate to form nanobubbles at low injected gas pressures, increasing the efficiency of production of nanobubble solutions with pressure sensitive gasses, such as ozone.
