UIP1000-Exd - 1.0kW ATEX Ultrasonic Mixer

Hielscher introduces the new UIP1000-Exd – an 1.0kW ultrasonic mixer for the ultrasonication of flammable liquids, e.g. solvents in hazardous environments (ATEX, FM). It is used for applications, such as emulsifying, dispersing & particle fine milling, or homogenizing. The ATEX and FM certified UIP1000-Exd is manufactured for ultrasonic processing applications in hazardous areas. The UIP1000-Exd is ATEX certified in accordance with DIN EN 60079-0, 60079-1 and 60079-11 (EU-standards II 2G E

Ultrasonic Transesterification of Oil to Biodiesel

Ultrasonication can improve the conversion processing of vegetable oils or animal fats to biodiesel by improved mixing and enhanced chemical activity. The manufacturing of biodiesel from oils (e.g. soy, canola, sunflower seed) or animal fats, involves the base-catalyzed transesterification of fatty acids with methanol to give the corresponding methyl esters. The conventional esterification reaction in batch processing tends to be slow, and phase separation of the glycerol is time-consuming. Ultrasound
