Is Turmeric Hiding a Secret? Ultrasound Just Unlocked It.

Stop Losing Curcumin. Start Smarter Turmeric Extraction.

Ever wondered why everyone talks about Curcumin, but hardly anyone mentions how difficult it actually is to pull it out of turmeric? 

The truth is, getting curcumin isn’t as simple as grinding turmeric or soaking it in a solvent. It’s locked deep inside the plant matrix, and traditional extraction methods struggle to bring it out efficiently.


Because the Truth is simple:

Curcumin may be powerful, but it doesn’t give up easily, and that’s exactly where things get interesting.

For years, industries have been stuck with slow, solvent-heavy extraction methods. Hours of soaking. High temperatures. Low yield. All that effort and still not getting the full potential of Curcumin.

But then came the technology that changed everything…

Ultrasound: The Upgrade Curcumin Didn’t Know It Needed

Imagine tiny shockwaves tapping open every cell in turmeric — fast, controlled and incredibly effective. That’s ultrasound-assisted extraction.

A study comparing Ultrasound Extraction with traditional soaking reported:

  • 72% Curcumin yield in just 1 hour using ultrasound
  • 62% yield in 8 hours using maceration

Why Ultrasound Wins:

  • Works without heating the material
  • Higher yield in less time
  • Uses less solvent
  • Saves energy
  • Fits small and large-scale production
  • Easy to operate

It’s not just an Alternative — it’s an Advantage.

RTUL’s Role in This New Wave

RTUL brings 40+ years of ultrasonic engineering to the table.
We support everything from 150 mL trials to 100 KL industrial-scale extraction.

You get:

  • Process optimisation for your specific raw material
  • Scalable ultrasonic systems
  • In-house testing to prove the results before you invest

If you’re in food, pharma or nutraceutical production, this shift is worth your attention.

BUT THE TWIST IS…

The same Ultrasonic intelligence that boosts Curcumin extraction also powers something else you might not expect:

RTUL’s Ultrasonic Powder Screening Machine 
Just like ultrasound unlocks Curcumin by breaking down cell walls, it keeps your screens open and your powders flowing smoothly.

It helps you:

  • Stop mesh blinding
  • Improve fine powder separation
  • Get higher throughput
  • Achieve consistent particle size control

So whether you’re extracting bioactives or handling powder, ultrasonics gives your process an edge from start to finish.

Turmeric is Powerful. With Ultrasound, it becomes Unstoppable. Higher yields, shorter cycles, and better extraction control make UAE the best step forward for anyone working with curcumin.

Compatibility Chart of Plastic Materials for Ultrasonic Welding

Creating Strong Bonds with Thermoplastics: Material Compatibility Matters   When it comes to joining thermoplastic parts, achieving a strong and lasting bond is one of the crucial factors: chemical compatibility. The materials need to be fundamentally compatible to form a secure connection. Merely melting them at the same temperature isn’t enough. Even if two materials melt at the same temperature, they may not form a molecular bond if they’re not chemically compatible. For instance, polypropylene and polyethylene share similar appearances and many physical properties as semi-crystalline materials. However, they lack chemical compatibility, preventing them from bonding to each other through welding. In many cases, it’s essential to weld similar materials together, like joining ABS to ABS. Referring to the above chart we can see that ABS is Fully Compatible with materials like ABS, ABS/PC, and PMMA. Whereas ABS may or may not be compatible with PS-GP, PS-HI, PVC-U, and SAN-NAS...

How do ultrasonic probe sonicators provide advanced solutions for degassing and defoaming?

Image
Sonication techniques have evolved. Now there is a distinct division between sonication and ultrasonication. The ultrasonic probe sonicator naturally provides better and advanced solutions. It uses 20kHz frequencies and can disrupt cells with the high intensity waves. Unlike sonication which requires general sound waves the former has a better cleaning capacity. That is why in certain industries, the new machines are preferred. RTUL Group is a large ultrasonic machine manufacturer in India. The company has a large capacity to cater to specific needs of clients. With best practices, we have been able to satisfy several clients over the years. This information pertains to ultrasonic probe sonicator and its procedures for degassing and defoaming. If you are browsing ultrasonic cleaning machine price in India, we could discuss your requirements. What is degassing and defoaming all about? The versatile ultrasonic probe sonicator are instrumental in a wide array of processes, ranging from ...

Why are concrete testing machines the backbone for infrastructure companies?

Image
Concrete is a ubiquitous material used for different infrastructure projects. Its strength and longevity depend heavily on its quality. This is where a concrete testing machine comes in. In the construction industry it plays a vital role in ensuring the structural integrity of concrete: be it in its fresh state (before hardening), molded cylinders, or precast beams. Subjecting concrete samples to controlled stress and strain by these machines is essential. It can determine key properties like compressive strength, flexural strength, and elasticity. This data helps assess the concrete’s ability to withstand weight, bending, and other stresses it will encounter in its service life. Some professionals also call it the pulse velocity test of concrete. Why are concrete testing machines the backbone for infrastructure companies? This blog post discusses the need for a concrete testing machine if the problem goes beyond basic strength testing. Modern concrete testing machines are equipped wit...
