Description: Ultrasonic Processor (sonicator) is mainly used for chemical processing applications. The principle of operation is cavitation. The high frequency vibrations are produced by the velocity horns that are made out of SS material, which is immersed in the liquid to be processed. These vibrations produce millions of microscopic vacuum bubbles, which form and implode at a very high rate. The normal frequency is twenty-five thousand cycles per second. This phenomenon is known as cavitation. Cavitation gives rise to intense local pressure waves and micro streaming of the liquid around the points of collapse. This in turn leads to high shear gradients that are responsible for the chemical process such as homogenisation, disintegration, and emulsification. The ultrasonic processors are used in pharmaceutical industries, chemical labs, biotechnological and research institutes.
