Title:
DEVICE FOR MIXING CHEMICALS AND AIR TO FORM A FOAM & METHOD FOR FORMING A CHEMICAL FOAM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2014/172547
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A foam generator for combining a fluid solution, containing chemicals, and pressurized air, to produce a foam chemical composition of consistent quality and composition. This foam generator has a unique sub-assembly, referred to a "foam generator insert". The foam generator insert comprises an ordered arrangement of discrete elements of porous media supported along the length of a rigid support structure or backbone (also "rod"), within the generator housing. The maintenance of the discrete elements in spaced apart relation to one another within the generator housing, during the foaming process, prevents compaction of the media within the generator and thereby permits the production of a chemical foam of consistent and reproducible quality, with minimal maintenance.
