Utrasonic topic: "How to use Ultrasonic Reactors"
Ultrasonic reactors are used for manifold applications to homogenise and disperse nano materials, to extract bioactive substances and to initiate chemical reactions (sonochemistry). Since sonication is a highly efficient process intensifying technology, ultrasonic reactors are used in chemistry and material science, the production of biodiesel and aqua-fuels, and in the food, pharma and cosmetic industry.
Ultrasonic chemical reactors are available for laboratory and industrial. Learn more about the applications of ultrasonic reactors and their easy integration!

Scale-up of Ultrasonic Extraction Processes
In order to increase production capacities, extraction processes must be scaled to larger volumes / higher throughputs. Ultrasonically-assisted extraction is a highly efficacious method to isolate botanical compounds from plant material. Additionally, sonication applications can be linearly scaled to larger…
