How does a high pressure homogeniser work?
How does a high pressure homogeniser work? High pressure homogenization is a mechanical process that works to reduce particle size or to lyse cells. Essentially, a liquid is forced at high pressure through a very narrow nozzle. As these cavities collapse, shock waves are generated throughout the liquid, which causes the particles to break apart. What is the pressure used in pressure homogenizer? Homogenizer able to process fluid matrices at pressure ranging between 20–100 MPa are nowadays employed in the dairy beverage, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries mainly to reduce particle size and consequently increase stability of emulsions in order to...
