Principles of Gas Transfer
Gasses in the atmosphere dissolve into water until equilibrium is reached
Equilibrium between the liquid and gas phase is offset when a vacuum and/or source of strip gas is applied
This creates a driving force to move gasses from the liquid phase into the gas phase

Gas in contact with water will tend to dissolve into water
The total amount of gas that will dissolve into water is proportional to the gas pressure
Henry’s law (P=Hx)
P = partial pressure of the gas in contact with the water
H = Henry’s proportionality constant of the gas
x = concentration of dissolved gas in water
Dissolved Gasses/Henry’s Law
Dissolved oxygen in water = 8.5 ppmDissolved nitrogen in water = 14.1 ppm
Air at 760 mm Hg

Operating Modes
By changing the partial pressure of the gas we can either remove gas from or dissolve gas into water.
Lower the partial pressure, the gas will be removed from the water Increase the partial pressure, the gas will dissolve into the water

There was no indication of Metallic or Ion Extraction in Samples Analyzed by IC, ICP-MS, and GFASS.
Note: this device is normally operated at higher flow rates than the 5 gpm used in this test. In reality, the rinse time is much faster to get to background.
