Thanks for your input. I am investigating some of the ideas that have been suggested.
MH - you are right, I am trying to do this on a small scale (on the order of 1-4 cu in of solid material).
I'll let you know if I have any success or interesting failures.
I'd like to use acoustics to vibrate a fluid/solid mixture, hoping that it will cause the solid to break up or pulverize.
I cannot seem to find simple acoustic transducer output devices that I can vary frequency or amplitude. Any ideas on companies that make somthing that I can use?
