Liquid Degasification and Gasification

Problem

First time visitors often arrive at our website because they are trying to solve a difficult degasification or gasification problem.

Manufacturing processes across many industries have process steps that involve removal of dissolved gases from liquids, or dispersion of gases into liquids. Applications for gassing and degassing process fluids exist in dozens of industries and commercial areas including:

Solutions

A number of commercially available membrane contactors are available to manage gasification or degasification of aqueous (water) solutions. However, these devices are often inadequate for processing surfactant solutions, solvents, and oils.

Ink Degasification

CMS is also developing membrane contactors for applications specific to the printing industries (aftermarket inkjet cartridge makers, and OEM high-speed commercial inkjet printers).

Ozonation of Water

Injecting highly reactive gas such as ozone into water is another application for chemically inert all-fluoropolymer CMS membrane contactors. These are available for use in small ozonation systems for enhanced surface disinfection and biological/chemical decontamination of drinking water. CMS has demonstrated oxidation of harmful contaminants with this ozonated water for applications such as the removal of humic acids, cryptosporidium, methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE), and nitrobenzene from drinking water; as well as the disinfection of hard surfaces, such as medical supplies and dental unit waterlines, and the removal of pesticides from fruits and vegetables.
