Ultrasonic Liquid Processing, Sonochemistry, and Extraction

 

Flow Through or Static Cylindrical Reactor Systems:  

For organic or inorganic material processing:

  • Food processing
  • Sonochemistry
  • Reaction Acceleration - cavitation accelerates chemical and physical reactions.

  • Fine Particle Dispersion - e.g. nanoparticle processing

  • Disruption and Cell Lysing - will break open biological tissues and cells to extract enzymes and DNA, prepare vaccines. This technology provides a method for ultrasonically lysing cells and spores in a liquid flowing continuously or intermittently through a cylindrical reactor.

  • Homogenization - making uniform mixtures of liquids or liquid suspensions.

  • Emulsification - processing foods, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics.

  • Dissolution - dissolving solids in solvents.

  • Degassing - removing gases from solutions without heat or vacuum.

  • Inline pipe cleaning, removes scale or build/up without disassembly.
  • Cylindrical 360° internally radiating chamber.
  • Internal or external liquid atomizing or powder making sonotrode.
 
A new method of continuous or intermittent inline ultrasonic processing for any liquid material or food that requires ultrasonic treatment. Single or multiple transducers are connected to custom clamps designed to fit nearly any size tube or pipe constructed of aluminum, stainless steel, or titanium. Our unique MMM technology offers a highly efficient transfer of ultrasonic energy to the metal pipe or tube. The pipe / tube becomes a radiating element allowing internal or external material treatment.

These assemblies will turn nearly any suitable pipe or tube into a highly efficient ultrasonic reactor. Longer pipe sections may be driven with multiple clamps powered by one or more MMM generators.

Key Features:

  • Flexible system designs for any length of pipe.
  • May be adapted to most any diameter pipe or tube (e.g. 25mm to 150 mm).
  • Will drive most any pipe thickness (e.g. 1mm to 30mm) at high power.
  • Flow through design allows easy adaptation to lab and industrial systems.
  • Long wave guides options allow for very high temperature applications.
  • Wide ranging power options offer:
    • Low power non-cavitation treatment
    • High power strong cavitation treatment
    • 0 to 100% power control
    • Advanced modulation techniques to modify and  improve acoustic effects.
    • Standard systems from 300 watts to 2,000 watts. Custom systems to 120,000 watts.
  • Simplified one-piece tube design without seams or joints allows easy internal cleaning and sterilization.

 

Special Clamp Systems

  • Glass, Quartz, or Plastic Tube Chambers:

    • Using special interface materials and clamp designs we can apply ultrasonic energy directly to a glass tube for treatment of liquid  materials or chemicals.

    • Alternatively glass tubes may be submersed into a water filled stainless steel pipe system for indirect 360° ultrasonic treatment.

Custom System Designs and Consulting:
  • Active Ultrasonics provides consulting services and custom reactor designs.
  • High amplitude probe flow cells
  • Unrestricted flow-through cylindrical systems
 
High Power Probe Sonicator:  

Custom sizes available for laboratory and high volume industrial applications.
