Abstract
An ultrasonic fluid processing system is provided for cavitation and processing a first fluid with a second fluid in a sonication or cavitation zone. The system, in a preferred embodiment, includes a converter with a power supply, a vibration means connected to the converter and defining at least in part a sonication or cavitation zone and a cell having walls forming a cavity. The cell also has a first inlet means with an inlet opening for providing a first fluid to the cavitaito zone. The cell also has a second inlet means with an inlet opening for simultaneously providing a second fluid to the cavitation zone. The cell has an outlet opening for exit of fluid after processing and cavitation.
Claims11
An ultrasonic fluid processing system comprising:
- vibration means having an end portion with an axis and with a vibration face which partly encloses and forms a sonication zone during vibration of the vibration face for fluid cavitation during processing of a first fluid with a second fluid within the sonication zone:
- a cell having walls forming a cavity for the vibration face and having an outlet opening for exit of the fluids from the cavity after cavitation and processing of the fluids in the sonication zone;
- first inlet means supported by the cell having a first opening in the cavity facing the sonication zone;
- second inlet means supported by the cell having a second opening in the cavity adjacent to the sonication zone;
- and
- said first and second openings being coaxial with the vibration end portion and face along said axis.
An ultrasonic fluid processing system for cavitation and processing a first fluid with a second fluid in a sonication zone, comprising:
- a converter with a power supply;
- a vibration means connected to the converter and defining at least in part a sonication zone;
- and
- a cell having walls forming a cavity;
- said cell having a first inlet means with an inlet opening for providing a first fluid to the sonication zone;
- said cell having a second inlet means with an inlet opening for simultaneously providing a second fluid to the sonication zone;
- said cell having an outlet opening for exit of fluid after processing and cavitation;
- and
- said vibration means and said inlet opening of the first inlet means and said inlet opening of the second inlet means being coaxial along a common axis.
