| low-Through NANO Cavitator (the formation, growth, and implosive collapse of gas or vapor-filled bubbles in liquids) can have substantial chemical and physical effects. While the chemical effects of acoustic cavitation (i.e., sonochemistry and sonoluminescence) have been extensively investigated during recent years, little is known about the chemical consequences of hydrodynamic cavitation created during turbulent flow of liquids. Cavitation Technologies Inc., developed new innovative patent pending single stage plazma cavitation process to make biodiesel. NANO reactor is a two stage flow-trough cavitation process is a component mix in the NANO reactor on the molecular level. All components inside of reactor are influenced with high pressure impulses and advanced controlled by NANO flow-trough cavitation. While processing vegetable oils under 4.5% percent F.F.A. with necessary components in plasma 9000 reactor the molecules of fatty acids are broken apart with microexplosions. The velocity and quality of going of the esterification reaction also increase significally. Thus not only quality and quantity data of pure biodiesel output but also its production rate |
In heterogeneous liquid–liquid reactions, cavitational collapse at or near the interface will cause disruption and mixing, resulting in the formation of very fine emulsions. When such emulsions are formed, the surface area available for the reaction between the two phases is significantly increased, thus increasing the rates of reaction. This is beneficial, particularly in the case of phase transfer-catalysed reactions or biphasic systems.
The different ways in which cavitation can be used beneficially in the biodiesel processing applications are;
(a) Reaction time reduction (instant).
(b) Increase in the reaction yield.
(c) Use of less forcing conditions (temperature and pressure) compared to the conventional routes.
(d) Reduction in the induction period of the desired reaction.
(e) Possible switching of the reaction pathways resulting in increased selectivity.
(f) Increasing the effectiveness of the catalyst used in the reaction.
(g) Initiation of the chemical reaction due to generation of highly reactive free radicals.
* All reaction is happening in ambient temperature and no agitation or mixing time is required.
Table 3. It can be seen from Table 3 that NANO cavitation is about 40 times more efficient compared to acoustic cavitation and 160 to 400 times more efficient compared to the conventional agitation/heating/refluxing method.
