Power ultrasound – versatile and powerful

Power ultrasound can be used to modify the properties of liquids in a number of ways, through viscosity reduction, homogenisation and emulsification - allowing manufacturers to develop products with different characteristics, or facilitate processing. It acts by temporarily or permanently disrupting molecular structure, depending on the severity of the treatment.

Our continuous pilot scale power ultrasound system is now operational for client use. It has a capacity of 20L minimum for continuous use, but a batch capacity of 600mL is still available for laboratory–scale experiments.

A number of system parameters can be varied:

• Temperature of the product (up to 85°C)
• Sonotrode type (radial or cascade)
• Amplitude of the ultrasound treatment (20 to 100%)
• Residence time of the product
