What Is Ultrasonic Cavitation and How Is It Used in Liquid Processing?

Ultrasonic cavitation is a physical phenomenon where tiny vacuum bubbles form, grow, and then violently collapse in a liquid due to high-frequency sound waves (ultrasound).

 

How it works

  • Ultrasound waves (typically above 20 kHz) travel through a liquid.
  • These waves create alternating high-pressure and low-pressure cycles.
  • During low-pressure phases, microscopic bubbles form (this is called cavitation).
  • During high-pressure phases, the bubbles collapse or “implode.”

We are exited to announce that in a few weeks Industrial Sonomechanics (ISM) will be participating in CAMX 2025 – the largest, most comprehensive composites and advanced materials event in North America!

From September 8th to 11th, our dedicated team will be at booth #S70, showcasing ISM's Continuous Ultrasonic Homogenizer and Bubble Eliminator (CuhBE) which overcomes the limitations of traditional degassing and dispersion methods, making it possible to significantly enhance your manufacturing processes.

We are also delighted to announce that on Wednesday, September 10th, as part of the official CAMX 2025 educational program, ISM's president and chief scientific officer, Dr. Alexey Peshkovsky,will deliver a one-hour educational session titled Using ultrasonic tools for advanced composite manufacturing.”
