A method for processing a material, comprising propelling a bulk of material throughout an artificially generated storm, and rotationally impelling the bulk of material, thereby generating acoustic effects operative for processing of the material, where the acoustic effects comprise pressure gradients acoustically coupled to and resonating with the material with acoustic impedance matching, acoustic total internal reflections and acoustic absorbance adequate for different materials. The method is carried out by a duct-like vessel constructed for rotationally impelling a kinetically introduced material to generate the acoustic effects.
