ACCELERATION OF ALCOHOL AGING AND/OR LIQUID MIXING/MATURATION USING REMOTELY POWERED ELECTROMECHANICAL AGITATION

摘要

A system to increase the speed of fluid fermentation and/or maturation by means of induced waves. This system can be deployed using multiple different architectures. The primary architecture is by direct immersion of "self-powered" device into the target medium, which irradiate the fluid, its contents, and its storage container with vibratory and/or sonic energy. These devices can take several forms such as spheres, cubes or any other geometric shape and can be configured with sensors to detect the quality of the medium. Also, the devices can change its buoyancy depending on the conditions of the medium. This change of buoyancy can be utilized to optimize the delivery of vibratory and/or sonic energy to the medium, improve energy transfer from an external power source, or indicate the level of alcohol/content of the medium.
