ultrasonic processor for drug extraction cosmetic emulsifier and biodiesel production

The pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries are now employing the energy of

ultrasonic vibration as a more efficient means of creating:

(1)stable emulsions;

(2)emulsions which have optimum viscosity;

(3)emulsions which desirable particle size;

(4)thorough distribution of solid particles in a liquid medium(dispersions).....or any system requiring high-intensity mixing. Results for those systems have been difficult to predict in advance with conventional equipment.

Emulsions and dispersions are often made with low-cost,propeller mixers,involving a time-consuming process and producing a low-quality product with large particle size. Other equipment used are colloid mills and piston homogenizers,which do produce a good emulsion,but with low throughput,high power requirements,high maintenance costs and perhaps undesirable heating effects. Equipment is also bulky and has a high initial capital cost.

Today,ultrasonic equipment,capable of being engineered to almost any capacity and for use in any liquid processing system,is available. Such equipment is being used by more and more drug and cosmetic manufacturers as an efficient,low-cost system for producing excellent emulsions and dispersions.

Low-cost,large-volume production is achieved through a unique concept creating ultrasonic energy mechanically. Such equipment is manufactured by Haituo Machinery Technology Co.,Ltd. The equipment is used widely to manufacture such drug and cosmetic products as antacid emulsions,antibiotic salves and ointments, and a broad variety of lotions,cold creams and other cosmetics.

ADVANTAGES

1.Simple,low-cost design----Initial equipment costs area fraction(often one-fourth or one-fifth) of the outlay required for conventional equipment with similar output. Installation of a Clangsonic emulsification system often merely means the replacement of an existing unit without change of production methods.

2.Low operating costs

a. High efficiency

Because all the energy is developed and used right in the liquids,high operating efficiency results. High production rates are achieved with a fraction of the power needed for conventional mixing equipment.

b. Low maintenance

c. Faster emulsification

3.Materials economy

The very high energies produced by cavitation afford a means of creating smaller particle size, and a great many cases allow a reduction n the amount of emulsifying agent.
