FLUIDSONICS

Fluidsonics is industrial scale sonochemistry ‑ high power applied to fluids to cause a change in state to particles and molecules, initiate chemical reactions, degas liquids etc by the action of cavitation implosion forces and jet streaming.

Modular systems up to 100 kilowatts of power are available for high volume processing

PATENTED PROCESSES

   

Fluidsonics

Fluidsonics is industrial scale sonochemistry - high power ultrasonics applied to liquids and gases. Normally encountered in the form of cleaning baths and tanks, FFR holds a number of innovative patents employing the forces of cavitation and streaming in novel ways.

   
Case Study
 

Fluidsonics
Looking for ways of recycling existing materials, a major chemical company approached FFR with a view to cleaning the resin used in a processing plant. The resin particles had become coated with contaminant over a period of time, rendering them ineffective. Passing the particles in a liquid carrier through an ultrasonically vibrating cell horn cleared the surface contaminant which fell to the bottom of the container enabling the resin particles to be retrieved clean and ready for reuse.

FFR is currently collaborating with major PLCs in the water industry, and research groups on projects in the fields of public health and food processing.

 
 

FFR Ultrasonics run training seminars on all aspects of power ultrasonics
including fluidsonics, horn design and manufacture
