  • Patent number: 11724215
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device (1) for disintegrating particles (3) of a suspension with ultrasonic sound, the device (1) comprising: a channel (10) for a suspension, wherein the channel (10) comprises a particle-processing portion (12), at least one pump (20) configured and arranged to adjust a flow velocity of the suspension in the channel (10), at least one ultrasonic sound source (30), arranged such at the channel (10) that an ultrasonic field generated by the ultrasonic sound source (30) extends at least in the particle-processing portion (12) inside the channel (10), wherein the device (1) comprises an instrumentation and control system configured to regulate the flow velocity of the suspension such that particles (3) of the suspension are arrangeable in a predefined spatial particle distribution in the particle-processing portion (12) of the channel (10) by adjusting the flow velocity of the suspension with respect to an inertial force (40) acting on the suspension, wherein the inertial force (40

  • Publication number: 20220073847
    Abstract: fermelnters or other processes for the treatment or conversion of organic substances, and also for improving viscosity, in which specifically required, technological or biological procedures are combined in one mixing and combi-hydrolysis tank. The device has one or more descending walls for separating the gas chamber in the top part of the tank, one descending wall of which separates the gas chamber of the tank opening from the other tank, and optionally a further descending wall, the lower end of which is permanently located above the lowest fluid level and which separates the gas chamber of the pump chamber from the other tank. The device optionally has an ultrasonic module for treating a recirculated material from an advanced fermentation stage or from the device according to claim 1, and also a gas supply system in the lower zones of the feed and/or pump chamber for hydrogenous gases, produced in the process or supplied externally, for stimulating methane formation by means of hydrogen-oxidising archaea.

  • Publication number: 20210292693
    Abstract: The invention relates to the production of biogas by means of multi-stage fermentation in a mono-tank. The device for biogas production by means of multi-stage fermentation in a single tank according to the invention is characterised in that the inside of the tank is provided with additional partitions, which are arranged in such a manner that the total volume of the tank is divided into at least two or more partial volumes, and partitioned tank sections are thus present, in which the various fermentation stages occur and which can be controlled according to the actual reaction progression. The device optionally has an ultrasonic module for treating a recirculated material from an advanced fermentation stage or from the device according to the invention.
