Abstract

Particles in a first fluid are transferred to a second fluid by confronting a stream of the first fluid with a stream of the second fluid in an enclosed region so that the particles will travel from the first fluid across said region to the second fluid by virtue of their momentum. The respective pressures of the first and second fluids is such that there is no appreciable mixing of the stream of the second fluid carrying particles with the first fluid.
