Description:

In chemistry, acoustic cavitation refers to the formation, growth and implosion of tiny bubbles. Cavitation bubbles are composed of compression buckle expansion cycles. The compression cycle causes the positive pressure in the liquid to push the molecules together. Conversely, the expansion cycle causes negative pressure to pull the molecules apart from each other. Once the bubble grows very rapidly, until it can't absorb the energy in the sound wave. In this case, the liquid will pour in and the bubbles will burst. The whole process destroys the attraction of molecules in the liquid phase. The blasting of the cavitation bubbles is very fast. These tiny bubbles formed during the ultrasonic treatment will increase the temperature of the liquid around the cavity and generate local hot spots. However, the area is so small that the heat is quickly dissipated. On the other hand, a very high pressure is generated during the bursting of the bubble, that is, about 1000 atmospheres. Although extreme conditions are very limited, ultrasonic treatment can create extreme physical and chemical conditions in the liquid. This allows ultrasonic waves to be used in extraction, crushing and mixing, emulsification, dispersing and stirring, defoaming and degassing, accelerated reactions, etc.

Applications:

1. Food processing
2. Reaction Acceleration – cavitation accelerates chemical and physical reactions.
3. Fine Particle
4. Dispersion – e.g. nanoparticle processing
5. Disruption and Cell Lysing – will break open biological tissues and
6. Homogenization – making uniform mixtures of liquids or liquid suspensions.
7. Emulsification – processing foods, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics.
8. Dissolution – dissolving solids in solvents.
9. Degassing – removing gases from solutions without heat or vacuum.
