    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sparging_(chemistry)

    In chemistry, sparging, also known as gas flushing in metallurgy, is a technique in which a gas is bubbled through a liquid in order to remove other dissolved gas (es) and/or dissolved volatile liquid (s) from that liquid. It is a method of degassing. According to Henry's law, the concentration of each gas in a liquid is proportional to the ...
