Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of emulsification processing, and in particular to an ultrasonic pipeline emulsification reactor. BACKGROUND

[0002] Ultrasonic emulsification refers to a process of mixing two or more than two immiscible liquids uniformly to form a dispersed system, in which one liquid is uniformly distributed in another liquid to form an emulsion. The physical mechanism of crushing insoluble solids (or liquids) is believed to be ultrasonic cavitation. Ultrasonic cavitation effect refers to that under the action of strong ultrasonic waves, a large number of bubbles are generated in the liquid, small bubbles will gradually grow and increase with ultrasonic vibration, and then suddenly break and split, and the split bubbles continue to grow and break. When these small bubbles collapse rapidly, high temperature and high pressure are generated in the bubbles, and strong local shock waves are generated in the liquid near the bubbles due to the high-speed impact of the liquid around the bubbles, which also forms local high temperature and high pressure, thereby producing ultrasonic crushing and emulsification. Ultrasonic emulsification is commonly used to manufacture various emulsion products, such as emulsion medicines, cosmetics and shoe polish, etc. Meanwhile, ultrasonic emulsification can also be used in certain chemical reactions, which has a positive effect on promoting heterogeneous chemical reactions.

[0003] There are mainly two ways to implement ultrasonic emulsification or reaction: 1. using an ultrasonic cleaner; 2. using an ultrasonic probe. However, the above-mentioned ways have the following disadvantages: 1. ultrasonic waves must pass through the medium in the cleaning tank to be transmitted to the reactants, and the energy loss is large; 2. the amount of medium in the cleaning tank, the position of the container in the tank and other factors affect the reusability; 3. the ultrasonic probe is expensive, and the probe must be corrosion-resistant, which can easily cause corrosion when directly contacting the emulsification or reaction medium, causing safety hazards; 4. in a solid-liquid two-phase emulsification or reaction system, the ultrasonic probe is easy to be blocked and damaged.
