Abstract
In an ultrasonic treatment system for ultrasonically treating a substance, an elongate ultrasonic horn is positionable within the substance and excitable to vibrate ultrasonically to energize the substance. The horn has a longitudinal axis and an outer surface for contact with the substance. An agitating member of the system is disposed on the ultrasonic horn and is rotatable about the longitudinal axis of the horn during ultrasonic vibration of the horn to agitate the substance.
