The functional properties of peanut protein were enhanced remarkably by ultrasonic waves. Processed by ultrasonic waves for20 min, foaming ability increases to 60% from 30%, and foam stability increases to 50% from 17%. Processed by ultrasonic waves for 15 min, emulsifying ability increases to 49.3% from 38.9% obviously, and emulsion stability increases to 100% from 91.4%.When the solution’s PH equals 4, foaming ability of peanut protein to be minimum. Foaming ability increases to 27.9% from 26.2% by ultrasonic waves. When the solution’s PH is from 6 to 10, emulsifying ability increases to 50.7% from 44.3% by ultrasonic waves. When the concentration of the solution of NaCl is 0.2mol/L~0.4mol/L, emulsifying ability increases to 45% from 38.4% by ultrasonic waves, but it will drop if we continue to increase the concentration of the solution of NaCl. Processed by ultrasonic waves for 6 min,oil absorption ability increases to 1.51 mL/g from 1.26 mL/g. Processed by ultrasonic waves for 8 min, the solubility of low concentration peanut protein solution (1g /100mL~2g/100mL) enhanced doubly, and the water holding capacity increases to 2.9% from 2.4%.

Treating oily sludge with ultrasonic technology is good at the subsequent processing of oil sludge.

The ultrasonic technology was applied to optimize the processing parameters of extraction of flavonoids from litchi seed using the response surface methodology. The Box–Behnken design was used to analyze the effect of independent variables including extraction temperature (X1), methanol concentration (X2) and extraction time (X3) on the yield of total flavonoids as the dependent variable(Y). The analysis of variance (ANOVA) indicated that three independent variables, their quadratic terms and interaction terms showed a significant effect on yield of total flavonoids (YTF) except the interaction between X1and X2. A mathematical model with high determination coefficient was constructed, according to which the optimal extraction conditions were determined as follows: extraction temperature 70°C, methanol concentration 68%, extraction time 70 min. Under the above-mentioned condition, the experimental value of YTF was 3.55 g catechin equivalent per 100 g of dry (g CE/100 g ), which agreed with the predicted value perfectly, demonstrating the response surface model was suitable in optimizing the extraction of flavonoids from litchi seed.

During the transmission of ultrasound, its great directionality, ubiquitous penetration and the ability to strengthen the diffusion, exchange and transfer of matter can help the treating fluid reach the crossing points of silk fabric.

The function of ultrasonic wave can cut down the time of process and avoid the damage of fibroin through controlling the temperature and dose of chemical agent.
