ABSTRACT:
A process and apparatus for rapidly carbonating water for use in applications such as a post-mix beverage dispenser by injecting carbon dioxide under pressure beneath the water in a pressure vessel, causing the water to swirl in a circular turbulent mixing motion while restrictively venting some of the carbon dioxide from the pressure vessel for a sufficient amount of time to carbonate the water, then sealing the pressure vessel to the atmosphere and continuing to inject carbon dioxide under pressure into the pressure vessel to prevent dissolved carbon dioxide from coming out of solution in the water and for dispensing the carbonated water upon demand.
