AB  - A baffled high intensity agitation (BHIA) cell was used to generate submicron 
      size bubbles of an average diameter around 500nm by hydrodynamic cavitation. The 
      generation of submicron size bubbles by BHIA cell was found to be largely 
      dependent on the agitation speed of impellers. The duration of agitation and 
      temperature showed only a marginal effect on generation of submicron size 
      bubbles. Surface properties such as zeta-potential and stability of submicron 
      size bubbles were found to be highly dependent on the chemistry of solutions in 
      which the bubbles are generated. The presence of surfactant and frother in water 
      was found to be beneficial for generating a larger number of submicron size 
      bubbles that are more stable, having a life time of up to 24h.
