This paper was written as an analysis and attempt to categorize known types of submersible gas handling devices and approaches for gas-liquid mixture bubble refinement. Design principles were formulated and new product line of advanced gas handlers for 272, 319, 362 and 406 (69, 81, 92, 103 mm) series was developed. As an example the results of 362-series advanced gas handler bench testing are described.
