ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for operating on liquids and gases to perform operations such as altering the extent to which a gas is contained in a liquid and pumping a gas, by means of a liquid, from a lower pressure to a higher pressure. A liquid is drawn upwardly along a suction tube from a first body of the liquid to an elevation substantially higher than this first body so as to reduce the hydrostatic head of the liquid, and from the suction tube the liquid flows back down a delivery tube to a second body of the liquid, an ejector being provided at the upper end region of the delivery tube for increasing the velocity of flow of the liquid while further reducing the pressure thereof. At the ejector a gas is combined with the liquid to be pumped thereby from a lower to a higher pressure, or a gas at a relatively higher pressure than the liquid at the ejector is combined with this liquid at the ejector to be at least partly dissolved into the liquid. In addition, at the upper end region of the suction tube it is possible to introduce the liquid into a separating chamber where gas separates from the liquid, and this gas is then returned to the liquid flowing down the delivery tube, so that in this way a gas is separated from the liquid and pumped thereby out of the separating chamber.
