  • comprising the steps of;

    forcing a liquid through a first channel of a feeding source in a manner which causes the liquid to be expelled as a first jet;

    forcing the liquid through a second channel of the feeding source in a manner which causes the liquid to be expelled as a second jet;

    forcing a gas through a pressure chamber in a manner which causes the gas to exit the pressure chamber from a first opening positioned in front of a flow path of the first jet and simultaneously exit the pressure chamber from a second opening positioned in front of a flow path of the second jet;

    allowing the first jet to emerge from the first opening and the second jet to emerge from the second opening thereby providing a plurality of stable microjets;

    wherein a stable liquid-gas interface is maintained between the liquid of the first jet and the gas and the liquid of the second jet and the gas.
