Thank you for helping us get here! We could not have done it without your interest, open-mindedness and support.
ISM was created to commercialize its Barbell Horn Ultrasonic Technology (BHUT), which makes it possible to overcome scale-up limitations of conventional ultrasonic devices (see video).
ISM was formed in New York, NY in 2006, after the invention of the Barbell Horn: a device that permits scaling up ultrasonic processors without sacrificing the vibration amplitudes and cavitation intensities they are able to generate (patent filed the same year, granted in 2007). The Barbell Horn design principles were developed by the company’s co-founder, Dr. Sergei Peshkovsky, during several decades of R&D in Russia.
Soon after its formation, ISM executed a technology transfer agreement with SulphCo, Inc. (Houston, TX, USA) in the area of ultrasonic upgrading of crude oil.
Our second PCT (international) patent was filed in 2007 (granted in the U.S. in 2014), followed by another IP license deal with Märkisches Werk (Halver, Germany), covering multiple application areas.
In 2012, we filed our third patent (granted in 2015), which, together with the
During the rest of its first decade, ISM further cemented its technology and created a successful line of products & services, serving a wide range of applications. We have also remained active in the area of academic research, which is reflected in a number of peer-reviewed publications, blog posts, e-book, conference presentations and books. Each year, ISM increases its application scope, product line, customer base, revenue, and geographic diversity of its customers.
Dr. Alexey Peshkovsky is a co-founder and President of ISM. He received his B.A. in Chemistry from the University of Pennsylvania and his M.S. and Ph.D. in Physical Chemistry from Columbia University. Dr. A. Peshkovsky is the author of over 40 scientific papers, patents, presentations and books.
Dr. Sergei Peshkovsky was a co-founder of ISM. He received his M.S. and Ph.D. from Moscow Institute of Chemical Engineering in Power Ultrasonics. Dr. S. Peshkovsky was a prominent scientist in the field of ultrasound theory and engineering, in which he patented more than 20 discoveries and inventions, written over 50 publications and published several books.
Mr. Jeffrey Meyer joined ISM in 2009 as a general partner and Commercial Director. He holds a B.S. in Economics from Bowling Green State University and an M.B.A. in Marketing and International Business from Wright State University.
