Abstract

Emulsions find wide use in food, drink, paint industry etc. Mixing devices and technologies such as ultrasonication, rotor-stator devices (e.g. Silverson) and high-pressure homogenizers are typically used to prepare emulsions. In this work emulsification performance of these geometries in view of the energy requirement is compared. Emulsification performance of a novel impinging-jet micromixer is also studied. Emulsification performance of the devices is tracked via emulsion quality i.e. average droplet size measurements. Comparison of emulsification performance will help in optimizing the product quality for the available energy to disperse the phases.
