Abstract
A homogenizer with the system designed to jet out emulsions and dispersed solutions from inter-valve microgaps, under high pressure. The microgaps for jetting out the homogenizing liquid are disposed in series at a plural number of locations. Also, it is designed such that the homogenizing liquid passes through two types of gaps, that is, narrow and wide microgaps in consecutive order. Furthermore, discharge ports are constructed with a design such that the homogenized liquid is discharged smoothly without interrupting the homogenization process. In this manner, a large quantity of the liquid can be treated with low homogenization pressure.
