How does the microbubble technology for sparkling water faucets work?

Microbubble technology for sparkling water taps works in the following ways:
Gas-liquid mixing: there is a special structure inside the faucet, such as the inner core of the jet and the bubbling cavity. When water flows through these structures, it uses jet action to form negative pressure, thereby sucking in air. Air and water are mixed in specific chambers, creating conditions for the formation of microbubbles. For example, the jet holes of some faucets are designed to be specially shaped and sized so that the water speeds up as it passes through, and according to Bernoulli’s principle, the increased flow rate causes the pressure to decrease, which in turn draws the surrounding air into the water stream.

Bubble thinning: The mixed gas-liquid fluid is then passed through a bubble mesh or similar thinning device. These devices often have tiny pores or complex channel structures that can cut and break larger bubbles into tiny bubbles, making the size of the bubbles up to the micron or even nanometer scale. For example, Moen’s microbubble technology uses a built-in microbubble generator to create micro – and nano-scale bubbles by subjecting water flow to a high-mesh bubble layer cutting impact. These tiny bubbles have a larger specific surface area and are able to more fully contact the surface of the object, which improves cleaning results and other properties.
Stable output: In order to ensure the stable output of micro-bubble water, the faucet may also be equipped with some auxiliary devices, such as pressure regulators or flow control devices. These devices can automatically adjust the proportion of gas-liquid mixing and the formation rate of bubbles according to the pressure and flow of the water flow, ensuring that uniform and stable micro-bubble water can be produced under different conditions of use.
