Claim 9:
10. Method for the solubilization of carbon dioxide in water using an apparatus according to claim 9, the method comprising the steps:
providing the apparatus with water and CO2;
mix the water and CO2 and create an annular-dispersed flow with the helical dispersion element;
accelerate the mixture of carbonized water mixed with undissolved CO2 in the accelerator;
direct the mixture of carbonized water mixed with undissolved CO2 to collide with the rigid surface, thereby creating a pressure sufficient to solubilize the carbon dioxide into the water;
pass the mixture of carbonized water mixed with undissolved CO2 through a conditioning conduit;
create an annular-dispersed flow in the second helical dispersion element;
accelerate the mixture of carbonized water mixed with undissolved CO2 in the second accelerator;
direct the mixture of carbonized water mixed with undissolved CO2 to collide with the rigid surface, thereby creating a pressure sufficient to solubilize the carbon dioxide into the water.
