Algae is an alternative to popular feedstocks, like soybean, canola and palm: ultrasonication improves the extraction of oil from the algae cells and the conversion to biodiesel

The SonoStep combines ultrasonication, stirring and pumping of samples in a compact design, to disperse agglomerated particles and improve particle size measurement accuracy
The development of such powerful systems results from the demand for the ultrasonic treatment of liquids in large scale.
Whether emulsifying oil in water, disintegrating sewage sludge, de-agglomerating or reducing germs, the needed ultrasound power usually raises proportionally to the amount of liquid that is to be treated in a certain time.
It is more cost-effective to compose a large ultrasonic system for example a system of 80kW with a flow rate of ten cubic meters per hour of 5 ultrasonic processors with a power of 16kW each as with 40 ultrasonic processors with a power of 2kW each.
The robust design of the transducer allows the use under heavy duty industrial conditions.
The processor can also be delivered as explosion proof design.
The generator as the transducer and the flow cell are housed in two connected compact stainless steel cabinets.
This makes the UIP16000 a self contained, robust and easy to install equipment.
The standard footprint of such a 16kW system is just 600mm x 1200mm.
If required, the generator cabinet can be located remotely in a maximum distance of 10m from the transducer with the flow cell.
The system is equipped with an independent cooling system, that completely avoids the contact between aggressive air or dust in the production site and the electric components of the ultrasonic processor.
The operation of the ultrasonic processor can be controlled and monitored by means of power meters and status displays as well as remotely via electric interfaces. Request a free brochure from Hielscher USA ...
