Claim 0:
1. An oxygenator system comprising:
one or more chambers, each of the one or more chambers having an open top;
one or more distribution plates, each distribution plate disposed over the open top of one or more corresponding chambers of the one or more chambers, each of the one or more distribution plates having a predetermined number of orifices distributed within one or more zones of a respective distribution plate and no orifices in at least one remaining zone of a respective distribution plate;
a container, disposed on top of the one or more distribution plates, configured to allow a first liquid contained in the container to flow through the orifices of the one or more distribution plates into the one or more chambers; and
one or more scrubbing inserts, each of the one or more scrubbing inserts disposed below a corresponding distribution plate, each of the one or more scrubbing inserts configured to perform carbon dioxide stripping, wherein
the first liquid flows through the orifices of the one or more distribution plates to create jets between a wall of the one or more corresponding chambers and a corresponding scrubbing insert,
the jets enter a second liquid held within each of the one or more chambers at one or more regions disposed directly below the one or more zones of the one or more distribution plates having the orifices, to create one or more circulation cells of bubbles, and gas generated by the one or more circulation cells of bubbles moves upward into and through a corresponding scrubbing insert, which strips carbon dioxide from the gas.
