Problem: CO2 is building up eventually leading to air locking my recirc pump.
I am thinking this is because I am pulling tank water under vac from tank, through the reactor, then to peristaltic pump. As CO2 is added it’s increasing the pressure and I have no idea what the vac/ pressure environment is doing inside the reactor over time as CO2 enters.
Is there a point where pressure or vac can cause CO2 to not dissolve well?
Before I go reversing a bunch of lines and switching the peristaltic pump to create a push environment, I want to make sure I’m not chasing my tail.
