Pulsed Electric Field (PEF) pilot scale batch system for solid food processing (plant tissue disintegration) KU Leuven
A PEF pilot scale batch system for food processing (solid foods, plant tissue disintegration) is required. Given the pilot nature of the equipment, we expect the dimensions (width, height and depth) not to exceed 180 cm, with depth not exceeding 100 cm (facilitating easy implementation in a regular laboratory environment). The equipment typically uses a spark gap modulator and operates between 10 and 30 kV. The range for pulse width should approximately be 5 – 50 μs (depending on the treatment chamber and load), a pulse repetition of 2 Hz is desired. Necessary cooling systems for equipment ...

Pulse Generator for Ultra-Dense Plasma Applications Ghent University
This state-of-the-art pulse generator is specifically designed for High Power Impulse Magnetron Sputtering (HIPIMS). It significantly enhances plasma density and ionization by delivering high power pulses, transforming the plasma into a metal-based medium. This advanced capability allows precise control over thin film deposition, optimizing film growth and properties through negative substrate polarization. Ideal for research and development in thin film technologies, this pulse generator is essential for achieving superior material performance.
