Sono-Chemistry is the use of ultrasonic energy to promote chemical and physical reactions. By sonicating a liquid, powder or compound chemical and physical reactions can be speeded up or can be made to form new compounds. The immense temperatures and pressures and the quick heating and cooling cycles generated on a microscopic scale by the ultrasonics, enable high energy chemistry.

The basics of Sono-Chemistry rely on the creation of the cavity vacuole in the liquid by the ultrasonic frequency. The collapse of the vacuole creates a temperature of 5,000 deg C and a pressure of about 1,000 atmospheres at a time scale of a micro second and heating and cooling rates of above 10 billion degrees C per second. The combination of these reactions enable extreme chemical reactions on a microscopic scale.

Sono-Chemistry is used in degassing of liquids, production of homogeneous metals, sonolysis of molecules, rupture of polymers, cell disruption, mass transfer and  other applications. There are many other applications for sono-chemical reactors.

The tm 175 reactor system is designed for small batch operation and for Lab use. We can scale the system to any size requirement. from beaker size to 100 of gallons per minute range. 

Other types of Sono-Chemical reactors consist of large tank types with multiple frequency ultrasonics, fluid heating systems, and pressure controlled atmospheres. These systems can be designed for batch or continuous processing.

The tm Sono-Chemical reactors are designed for both laboratory and production use. We can custom design a system for your particular application. We have produced Sono-Chemical reactors in various sizes and frequencies, dependent on process requirements. Call us and discuss your particular requirements.
