Applications of clamp-on ultrasonic systems

 

Unlimited applications...

 

The range of applications for this flexible and versatile new ultrasonic technology is enormous. Here are just a few...

 

Process improvement:

  • Facilitating flow of viscous products by removing fluid friction (eg. foodstuffs)
  • Extractions (eg. mining industry, precious metals, perfumes)
  • Defoaming (including large surfaces)
  • Incineration of liquids
  • Petrochemical cracking
  • Supercritical liquid CO2 reactors
  • Fuel Cells
Laboratory setup of 3-clamp tubular ultrasonic reactor Clamp-On tubular sonoreactor for a variety of different sonochemistry-related applications (liquids treatment, liquids processing).

Liquids treatment:

  • Mixing, degassing and homogenizing of all kinds of fluids (eg. chemical, pharmaceutical and food industries)
  • Sonoreactors and applications in sonochemistry and electrochemistry
  • Fuels (oil and diesel fuels) mixing and blending
  • Waste water treatment
  • Processing molten metals and alloys
  • Washing machines
  • Pulp and paper production
Sonication within a small-scale laboratory sono-reactor The water surface gives some indication of activity underneath when the clamp-on sonoreactor produces its wide-band acoustic field.

Cleaning:

  • Continuous cleaning inside pipes
  • Nuclear industry heat exchanger pipes - inline cleaning without ever releasing contents
  • Precision cleaning
  • Protection and cleaning of boilers and heat exchangers
  • Air and water filtering, purification, decontamination and sterilization (including nuclear industry)
  • Surface decontamination (eg. food and pharmaceutical)
Small scale laboratory sono-reactor uses a simple stainless steel flask glass also possible and clamp-on sonotrode Laboratory sonoreactor for batch liquid processing

Atomizing and vaporization:

  • Nano-particles production
  • Fuel injection
  • Industrial fluids atomizers and gas mixing (air conditioning, semiconductor technologies)
  • Large volume humidifiers and dust removal
  • Liquid alloy atomizers and solder atomizers
  • Incineration of waste and dangerous liquids by atomizing
