Ultrasonic Processing. Engineered for Production.
Cannasol builds ultrasonic processing systems, surfactant systems and finished nanoemulsions.
Ultrasonic Liquid Processors
Customized 20 kHz systems from 2.0 kW to 8.0 kW. 316L stainless flow cells, Grade 5 titanium horns, automation, peristaltic pumps and process tanks. Complete systems start at $20,995 with a one-year warranty on non-consumable components.
We cut every horn and booster we sell. Grade 5 titanium, turned and milled forty feet from the cleanroom where we run the same machines in production. We keep replacement horns in stock.
Nano Surfactant Systems
NanoOptimizer™ is designed for minimum particle size and maximum stability. High-Loader™ is designed for higher active loading, lower cost, and reduced bitterness. Larger particles transmit taste less efficiently, which can be advantageous for bitter actives.
NanoOptimizer produces smaller droplets, typically 20–100 nm. High-Loader supports higher active loading, up to 150 mg/mL, with typical droplet sizes of 200–250 nm. Both surfactants perform optimally with ultrasonic processing, but can be used on other emulsification equipment as well.
We Supply Finished Emulsions
We produce finished oil-in-water nanoemulsions to your specification, in our own cleanroom. Droplet sizes as small as 20–30 nm, volume-weighted average by DLS. Custom actives, mushroom extracts and kava extracts. Sample first, then scale.
Finished emulsions are pasteurized and preserved for ambient shipping and storage. Refrigeration after receipt is recommended to extend shelf life.

Manuals, run protocols, SDS documents and certificates of analysis are available on the Resources page.
The Technology
Ultrasonic cavitation drives the process. A titanium horn vibrating 20,000 times per second creates and collapses vapor cavities, shearing the oil phase into smaller droplets.
The CT-2000 typically delivers 1.2–1.6 kW of actual acoustic output, depending on viscosity. Tip amplitude reaches 100 micron with the included 2:1 half-wave Grade 5 titanium booster.
Know Your Processing Cost
Work out the cost per liter of finished nanoemulsion from your target concentration, usage ratio, purchase tier and operator cost.
Tell us what you are trying to make
Describe your specific process: the active, the finished product, target throughput, etc. We will give you a straightforward assessment, and help you determine if our equipment is a good fit.
