Abstract
This study investigates the effectiveness of ultrasonic (US) treatment in removing and mineralizing surfactants in wastewater. It examines the complex mechanisms and variables (acoustic conditions, solution temperature, initial dose, etc.) that affect sonolytic processes. The effect of water matrix components (such as salts and the presence of secondary pollutants) on process performance is thoroughly investigated. Various treatments are analyzed through a detailed comparison of synergistic hybridization processes. The study also provides a comprehensive review of current environmental applications and explores potential directions for surfactant degradation using ultrasound. Insightful information is presented to advance sustainable wastewater treatment techniques. The literature review clearly reveals the promising future of sonotreatment for degrading various surfactants under different conditions. The use of multifrequency mechanisms and the integration of other advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) with the US process have significantly enhanced the energy efficiency of the sonochemical system. Additionally, the results highlight the need to focus on developing new sonoreactor designs, identifying degradation intermediates, and hybridizing the sonochemical system under innovative operating conditions.

Abstract
The impact of hydrostatic pressure, commonly known as ambient or external pressure, on the phenomenon of sonochemistry and/or sonoluminescence has been extensively investigated through a multitude of experimental and computational studies, all of which have emphasized the crucial role played by this particular parameter. Numerous previous studies have successfully demonstrated the existence of an optimal static pressure for the occurrence of sonoluminescence and multi-bubble or single-bubble sonochemistry. However, despite these findings, a universally accepted value for this critical pressure has not yet been established. In addition, it has been found that the cavitation effect is completely inhibited when the static pressure is either too high or too low. This comprehensive review aims to delve into the primary experimental results and elucidate their significance in relation to hydrostatic pressure. We will then conduct an analysis of numerical calculations, focusing specifically on the influence of external pressure on single bubble sonochemistry. By delving into these calculations, we will be able to gain a deeper understanding of the experimental results and effectively interpret their implications.

[PMID: 38692020 PMCID: PMC11077164 DOI: 10.1016/j.ultsonch.2024.106886] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/01/2024] [Revised: 04/10/2024] [Accepted: 04/23/2024] [Indexed: 05/03/2024]
Abstract
Tetracycline has received a great deal of interest for the harmful effects of substance abuse on ecosystems and humanity. The effects of different processes on the degradation of tetracycline were compared, with dual-frequency ultrasound (DFUS) in combination with peroxymonosulfate (PMS) being the most effective for the tetracycline degradation. Free radical scavenging experiments showed that O2∙-,SO4∙- and •OH were the main reactive radicals in the degradation of tetracycline. According to the major intermediates of tetracycline degradation identified, three possible degradation pathways were proposed, which are of significance for translational studies of tetracycline degradation. Notably, these intermediates were found to be significantly less toxicity. The number of active bubbles in the degradation vessel was calculated using a semi-empirical formula, and a higher value of 1.44 × 108 L-1s-1 of bubbles was obtained when using dual-frequency ultrasound at 20 kHz (210 W/L) and 80 kHz (85.4 W/L). Therefore, compared to 20 kHz, although the yield of strong oxidizing substances from individual active bubbles decreased slightly, a significant increment of the number of active bubbles still resulted in a higher synergistic effect, and the combination of DFUS and PMS should be effective in promoting the generation of reactive free radicals and mass transfer processes within the degradation vessel, which provides a method for efficient removal of tetracycline from wastewater.

Abstract
Acoustic cavitation bubbles drive chemical processes through their dynamic lifecycle in liquids. These bubbles are abundant within sonoreactors, where their behavior becomes complex within clusters. This study quantifies their chemical effects within well-defined clusters using a new laser-based method. We focus a laser beam into water, inducing a breakdown that generates a single cavitation bubble. This bubble undergoes multiple collapses, releasing several shockwaves. These shockwaves propagate into the surrounding medium, leading to the formation of secondary bubbles near a reflector, separated from the input laser beam. We evaluate the chemical activity of these bubble clusters of various sizes by KI dosimetry, and to gain insights into their dynamics, we employ high-speed imaging. Hydrophone measurements show that conversion from focused shockwave energy to chemical reactions increases to a maximum of 16.5%. Additional increases in shockwave energy result in denser bubble clusters and a slightly decreased conversion rate, falling to 14.9%, highlighting the key role of bubble dynamics in the transformation of mechanical to chemical energy and as a result in the efficiency of the sonoreactors. The size and frequency of bubble collapses influence the cluster's chemical reactivity. We introduce a correlation for predicting the conversion rate of cluster energy to chemical energy, based on the cluster's energy density. The maximum conversion rate occurs at a cluster energy density of 2500 J/L, linked to a cluster with an average bubble diameter of 91 μ m, a bubble density of 3500 bubbles/ml, and a bubble-to-bubble distance ratio of 8.

Abstract
There is a lack of literature on peroxynitrite formation due to sonolysis of aerated water. In this work, the impact of sonication parameters, frequency and power, on ultrasonic peroxynitrite production in aerated alkaline water was investigated. Peroxynitrite formation was clearly established with undeniable evidence at all the tested frequencies in the range of 516-1140 kHz with a typical G-value (energy-specific yield) of 0.777 × 10-10, 0.627 × 10-10, 0.425 × 10-10 and 0.194 × 10-10 mol/J at 516, 558, 860 and 1140 kHz, respectively. The ultrasonication frequency has a direct impact on the sonochemical peroxynitrite production. Increasing the ultrasonication frequency in the interval 321-1140 kHz reduces peroxynitrite formation. The most practical sonochemistry dosimetries, including hydrogen peroxide production, triiodide dosimetry, Fricke dosimetry, and 4-nitrocatechol formation, were compared with the sonochemical efficiency of the reactors used to produce peroxynitrite. The G-value, energy specific yield, for the tested dosimetries was higher than that for peroxynitrite formation, regardless of frequency. For all chemical dosimetries investigated, the same trend of frequency dependence was found as for peroxynitrite generation. The influence of ultrasonication power on peroxynitrite formation by sonication at diverse frequencies in the interval 585-1140 kHz was studied. No peroxynitrite was formed at lower acoustic power levels, regardless of frequency. As the frequency increases, more power is required for peroxynitrite formation. The production of peroxynitrite increased as the acoustic power increased, despite the frequency of ultrasonic waves. Ultrasonic power is a key factor in the production of peroxynitrite by sonolysis. Since peroxynitrite is uniformly distributed in the bulk solution, peroxynitrite-sensitive solutes can be transformed both in the bulk of the solution and in the surfacial region (shell) of the cavitation bubble. The formation of peroxynitrite should be taken into account in sonochemistry, especially at higher pH values. Ultrasonic peroxynitrite formation in alkaline solution (pH 12) can be considered as a kind of chemical dosimetry in sonochemistry.

Abstract
In the present study, experiments of membraneless alkaline sono-electrolysis are combined to a mathematical model describing the performance of a sono-electrolyzer based on the electrochemical resistances and overpotentials (activation, Ohmic and concentration) and the oscillation of the acoustic cavitation bubble, and its related sono-physical and sonochemical effects, as a single unit and within population. The study aims to elucidate the mechanism of action of acoustic cavitation when coupled to alkaline electrolysis, using a membraneless H-cell configuration and indirect continuous sonication (40 kHz, 60 We). The calorimetric characterization constituted the bridge between experimental results and the numerical and simulation approach, while the quantification of the rate of produced hydrogen both experimentally and numerically highlighted the absence of the contribution of sonochemistry, and explained the role of ultrasounds by the action of shockwaves and microjets. Finally, the energetic sono-physical approach allowed an estimation of the predominance of the shockwaves and microjets effects according to the bubble size distribution within the population corresponding to the acoustic conditions of the study. The resulting macroscopic effect in sono-electrolysis process has been assessed considering the induced degassing. A reduction in the fraction of electrodes' coverage by bubbles from 76% to 42% has been recorded, corresponding to a decrease of 7.2% in Ohmic resistance and 62.35% in bubble resistance.

Abstract
An alternative semi-empirical technique is developed to determine the number density of active cavitation bubbles (N) formed in sonicated solutions. This was achieved by relating the acoustic power supplied to the solution (i.e., determined experimentally) to the released heat by a single bubble. The energy dissipation via heat exchange is obtained by an advanced cavitation model accounting for the liquid compressibility and viscosity, the non-equilibrium condensation/evaporation of water vapor, and heat conduction across the bubble wall and heats of chemical reactions resulting within the bubble at the collapse. A good concordance was observed between our results and those found in the literature. It was found that the number of active bubbles increased proportionally with a rise in ultrasound frequency. Additionally, the increase of acoustic intensity increases the number of active bubbles, whatever the sonicated solution's volume. On the other hand, it was observed that the rise of the irradiated solution volume causes the number of active bubbles to be reduced even when the acoustic power is increased. A decrease in acoustic energy accelerates this negative impact.

Abstract
Spherical SiO2 nanoparticles (SSNs) have been inventively synthesized using the Stöber method with sonication at medium-high frequencies (80, 120, and 500 kHz), aiming to control SSN size and shorten reaction time. Compared to the conventional method, such sonication allowed the Stöber reaction complete in 20-60 min with a low molar ratio of NH4OH/tetraethyl orthosilicate (0.84). The hydrodynamic diameters of 63-117 nm of SSNs were obtained under sonication with 80, 120, and 500 kHz of ultrasonic frequencies. Moreover, the SSNs obtained were smaller at 120 kHz than at 80 kHz in a multi-frequencies ultrasonic reactor, and the SSN size decreased with increasing ultrasonic power at 20 °C, designating the sonochemical unique character, namely, the SSN-size control is associated with the number of microbubbles originated by sonication. With another 500 kHz ultrasonic bath, the optimal system temperature for producing smaller SSNs was proven to be 20 °C. Also, the SSN size decreased with increasing ultrasonic power. The smallest SSNs (63 nm, hydrodynamic diameter by QELS, or 21 nm by FESEM) were obtained by sonication at 207 W for 20 min at 20 °C. Furthermore, the SSN size increased slightly with increasing sonication time and volume, favoring the scale-up of SSNs preparation. The mechanisms of controlling the SSN size were further discussed by the radical's role and effects of ammonia and ethanol concentration.

Abstract
The two-stage cultivation strategy was optimized in this study to simultaneously promote the growth and lipid accumulation of Tetradesmus obliquus. Results showed that the optimal dual-stress conditions were nitrogen concentration at 25 mg N·L-1 and low-frequency ultrasound at 200 Watt, 1 min, and 8 h interval. The biomass and lipid content of Tetradesmus obliquus were increased by 32.1% and 44.5%, respectively, comparing to the control, and the lipid productivity reached 86.97 mg-1·L-1·d-1 at the end of the cultivation period. The protein and photosynthetic pigment contents of microalgae decreased by 22.4% and 14.0% under dual stress comparing to the control environment. In addition, dual stress cultivation of microalgae presented higher level of antioxidant capacity to balance to oxidation level in microalgal cells. This study provides a new insight for microalgae growth and lipid accumulation with dual stress stimulation.

Abstract
Microalgae are a promising feedstock for the production of biofuels, nutraceuticals, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics, due to their superior capability of converting solar energy and CO2 into lipids, proteins, and other valuable bioactive compounds. To facilitate the release of these important biomolecules from microalgae, effective cell disruption is usually necessary, where the use of ultrasound has gained tremendous interests as an alternative to traditional methods. This review not only summarizes the mechanisms of and operation parameters affecting cell disruption, but also takes an insight into measuring techniques, synergistic integration with other disruption methods, and challenges of ultrasonication for microalgal biorefining. Optimal conditions including ultrasonic frequency, intensity, and duration, and liquid viscosity and sonochemical reactor are the key factors for maximizing the disruption and extraction efficiency. A combination of ultrasound with other disruption methods such as ozonation, microwave, homogenization, enzymatic lysis, and solvents facilitates cell disruption and release of target compounds, thus provides powerful solutions to commercial scale-up of ultrasound extraction for microalgal biorefining. It is concluded that ultrasonication is a sustainable "green" process, but more research and work are needed to upscale this process without sacrificing performance or consuming more energy.

Abstract
The present paper introduces a novel semi-empirical technique for the determination of active bubbles' number in sonicated solutions. This method links the chemistry of a single bubble to that taking place over the whole sonochemical reactor (solution). The probe compound is CCl4, where its eliminated amount within a single bubble (though pyrolysis) is determined via a cavitation model which takes into account the non-equilibrium condensation/evaporation of water vapor and heat exchange across the bubble wall, reactions heats and liquid compressibility and viscosity, all along the bubble oscillation under the temporal perturbation of the ultrasonic wave. The CCl4 degradation data in aqueous solution (available in literature) are used to determine the number density through dividing the degradation yield of CCl4 to that predicted by a single bubble model (at the same experimental condition of the aqueous data). The impact of ultrasonic frequency on the number density of bubbles is shown and compared with data from the literature, where a high level of consistency is found.

Numerical Characterization of Acoustic Cavitation Bubbles with Respect to the Bubble Size Distribution at Equilibrium. Processes (Basel) 2021.

Abstract
In addition to bubble number density, bubble size distribution is an important population parameter governing the activity of acoustic cavitation bubbles. In the present paper, an iterative numerical method for equilibrium size distribution is proposed and combined to a model for bubble counting, in order to approach the number density within a population of acoustic cavitation bubbles of inhomogeneous sizing, hence the sonochemical activity of the inhomogeneous population based on discretization into homogenous groups. The composition of the inhomogeneous population is analyzed based on cavitation dynamics and shape stability at 300 kHz and 0.761 W/cm2 within the ambient radii interval ranging from 1 to 5 µm. Unstable oscillation is observed starting from a radius of 2.5 µm. Results are presented in terms of number probability, number density, and volume probability within the population of acoustic cavitation bubbles. The most probable group having an equilibrium radius of 3 µm demonstrated a probability in terms of number density of 27%. In terms of contribution to the void, the sub-population of 4 µm plays a major role with a fraction of 24%. Comparisons are also performed with the homogenous population case both in terms of number density of bubbles and sonochemical production of HO•,HO2•, and H• under an oxygen atmosphere.

Abstract
Hydrogen energy is one of the most suitable green substitutes for harmful fossil fuels and has been investigated widely. This review extensively compiles and compares various methodologies used in the production, storage and usage of hydrogen. Sonochemistry is an emerging synthesis process and intensification technique adapted for the synthesis of novel materials. It manifests acoustic cavitation phenomena caused by ultrasound where higher rates of reactions occur locally. The review discusses the effectiveness of sonochemical routes in developing fuel cell catalysts, fuel refining, biofuel production, chemical processes for hydrogen production and the physical, chemical and electrochemical hydrogen storage techniques. The operational parameters and environmental conditions used during ultrasonication also influence the production rates, which have been elucidated in detail. Hence, this review's major focus addresses sonochemical methods that can contribute to the technical challenges involved in hydrogen usage for energy.

[PMID: 33812247 PMCID: PMC8044704 DOI: 10.1016/j.ultsonch.2021.105511] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/31/2020] [Revised: 02/14/2021] [Accepted: 03/03/2021] [Indexed: 05/24/2023]
Abstract
Numerical simulations have been performed on a range of ambient bubble radii, in order to reveal the effect of mass transport, heat exchange and chemical reactions heat on the chemical bubble yield of single acoustic bubble. The results of each of these energy mechanisms were compared to the normal model in which all these processes (mass transport, thermal conduction, and reactions heat) are taken into account. This theoretical work was carried out for various frequencies (f: 200, 355, 515 and 1000 kHz) and different acoustic amplitudes (PA: 1.5, 2 and 3 atm). The effect of thermal conduction was found to be of a great importance within the bubble internal energy balance, where the higher rates of production (for all acoustic amplitudes and wave frequencies) are observed for this model (without heat exchange). Similarly, the ignorance of the chemical reactions heat (model without reactions heat) shows the weight of this process into the bubble internal energy, where the yield of the main species (OH, H, O and H2) for this model was accelerated notably compared to the complete model for the acoustic amplitudes greater than 1.5 atm (for f = 500 kHz). However, the lowest production rates were registered for the model without mass transport compared to the normal model, for the acoustic amplitudes greater than 1.5 atm (f = 500 kHz). This is observed even when the temperature inside bubble for this model is greater than those retrieved for the other models. On the other hand, it has been shown that, at the acoustic amplitude of 1.5 atm, the maximal production rates of the main species (OH, H, O and H2) for all the adopted models appear at the same optimum ambient-bubble size (R0 ~ 3, 2.5 and 2 µm for, respectively, 355, 500 and 1000 kHz). For PA = 2 and 3 atm (f = 500 kHz), the range of the maximal yield of OH radicals is observed at the range of R0 where the production of OH, O and H2 is the lowest, which corresponds to the bubble temperature at around 5500 K. The maximal production rate of H, O and H2 is shifted toward the range of ambient bubble radii corresponding to the bubble temperatures greater than 5500 K. The ambient bubble radius of the maximal response (maximal production rate) is shifted toward the smaller bubble sizes when the acoustic amplitude (wave frequency is fixed) or the ultrasound frequency (acoustic power is fixed) is increased. In addition, it is observed that the increase of wave frequency or the acoustic amplitude decrease cause the range of active bubbles to be narrowed (scenario observation for the four investigated models).

Abstract
Due to its physical and chemical effects, ultrasound is widely used for industrial purposes, especially in heterogeneous medium. Nevertheless, this heterogeneity can influence the ultrasonic activity. In this study, the effect of the addition of inert glass beads on the sonochemical activity inside an ultrasonic reactor is investigated by monitoring the formation rate of triiodide, and the ultrasonic power is measured by calorimetry and by acoustic radiation. It was found that the sonochemical activity strongly depends on the surface area of the glass beads in the medium: it decreases above a critical area value (around 10-2 m2), partly due to wave scattering and attenuation. This result is confirmed for a large range of frequencies (from 20 to 1135 kHz) and glass beads diameters (from 8-12 µm to 6 mm). It was also demonstrated that above a given threshold of the surface area, only part of the supplied ultrasonic power is devoted to chemical effects of ultrasound. Finally, the acoustic radiation power appears to describe the influence of solids on sonochemical activity, contrary to the calorimetric power.

Abstract
The sonochemical (850 kHz) Cr(VI) reduction (0.30 mM, pH 2) in the presence of citric acid (Cit, 2 mM) was analyzed under different working atmospheres: reactor open to air without sparging (ROAWS), and Ar, O2, air and N2 sparging. Hydrogen peroxide formation in pure water at pH 2 and KI dosimetry were also measured. Zero-order kinetics was observed in all cases. A complete Cr(VI) reduction after 180 min insonation was obtained with the ROAWS and under Ar, while a lower Cr(VI) reduction efficiency was achieved under the other conditions. The Cr(VI) reduction and H2O2 formation rates followed the order ROAWS ≅ Ar > air ≅ O2 ≫ N2, while for KI dosimetry the order was ROAWS ≫ O2 ≅ air > Ar ≫ N2. This indicates that H2O2 formation rate is a better measure of the system reactivity for Cr(VI) reduction. For air, O2 and N2, once the sparging was stopped, Cr(VI) reduction rate increased up to approximately the same value obtained for the ROAWS, suggesting that the sparging decreased the generation of reactive species and, thus, the Cr(VI) reduction rate. Nitrate production was measured at low concentrations (micromolar range) in the ROAWS, air and N2 systems. Formic and acetic acids were detected as Cit degradation products. Reaction mechanisms were proposed. It can be concluded that the best condition for Cr(VI) removal is with the ROAWS because of a higher Cr(VI) reduction rate, no atmosphere control is required, and it is a less expensive system.

Abstract
Sonolysis has been proposed as a promising treatment technology to remove per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) from contaminated water. The mechanism of degradation is generally accepted to be high temperature pyrolysis at the bubble surface with dependency upon surface reaction site availability. However, the parametric effects of the ultrasonic system on PFAS degradation are poorly understood, making upscale challenging and leading to less than optimal use of ultrasonic energy. Hence, a thorough understanding of these parametric effects could lead to improved efficiency and commercial viability. Here, reactor characterisation was performed at 44, 400, 500, and 1000 kHz using potassium iodide (KI) dosimetry, sonochemiluminescence (SCL), and sonoluminescence (SL) in water and a solution of potassium salt of PFOS (hereafter, K-PFOS). Then the degradation of K-PFOS (10 mg L-1 in 200 mL solution) was investigated at these four frequencies. At 44 kHz, no PFOS degradation was observed. At 400, 500, and 1000 kHz the amount of degradation was 96.9, 93.8, and 91.2%, respectively, over four hours and was accompanied by stoichiometric fluoride release, indicating mineralisation of the PFOS molecule. Close correlation of PFOS degradation trends with KI dosimetry and SCL intensity was observed, which suggested degradation occurred under similar conditions to these sonochemical processes. At 1000 kHz, where the overall intensity of collapse was significantly reduced (measured by SL), PFOS degradation was not similarly decreased. Discussion is presented that suggests a hydrated electron degradation mechanism for PFOS may occur in ultrasonic conditions. This mechanism is a novel hypothesis in the field of PFAS sonolysis.

Abstract
The results presented in this study illustrate the multiple roles of seawater salinity toward the sonochemical degradation, at variable frequencies (300-1700 kHz), of several hazardous substances, i.e. propylparaben (PPR) endocrine disruptor and several synthetic dyes: naphthol blue black (NBB), malachite green (MG), basic red 29 (BR29), acid orange 7 (AO7), Rhodamine B (RhB) and basic fuchsin (BF). Sonochemical treatment degraded all pollutants in seawater at faster rates than in deionized water. The seawater-salts through increasing the ionic strength of the solution act as a potential pusher of hydrophilic pollutants toward the reactive interfacial area of cavitation bubbles. Additionally, the salts reduce the bubble coalescence, which yields higher number of active bubbles in the irradiating media. Analysing the degradation rate of PPR and NBB with two heterogeneous models based on Langmuir kinetics mechanism indicated that the bubble interfacial area was the preferred reaction zone for the ultrasonic degradation of PPR and NBB in seawater.

Abstract
We studied sonochemical reactions resulting from ultrasonic treatment of potassium hexacyanoferrate(II) in aqueous solutions using a custom-built apparatus working at 536 kHz. We concluded that primary reactions are completely dominated by oxidation of Fe(II) to Fe(III) and did not find any evidences for degradation of cyanide. At the highest concentration used in the present study (0.1 M) we detected formation of pentacyanoaquaferrate(II) complex, which is most probably formed in reactions between hexacyanoferrate(III) anions and hydrogen atoms or hydrated electrons formed in sonochemical processes. We also determined that hydroxyl radicals formation rate in our system, (8.7 ± 1.5)∙10-8 M∙s-1, is relatively high compared to other reported experiments. We attribute this to focusing of the ultrasonic wave in the sample vessel. Finally, we suggest that oxidation rate of hexacyanoferrate(II) anions can be a convenient benchmark of efficiency of sonochemical reactors.

Abstract
Current literature shows a direct correlation between the sonochemical (SC) process of iodide oxidation and the degradation of phenol solution. This implies phenol degradation occurs primarily via oxidisation at the bubble surface. There is no work at present which considers the effect of fluid flow on the degradation process. In this work, parametric analysis of the degradation of 0.1 mM phenol solution and iodide dosimetry under flow conditions was undertaken to determine the effect of flow. Frequencies of 44, 300 and 1000 kHz and flow rates of 0, 24, 228 and 626 mL/min were applied with variation of power input, air concentration, and surface stabilisation. Phenol degradation was analysed using the 4-aminoantipyrine (4-AAP) method, and sonoluminescence (SL) images were evaluated for 0.1, 20 and 60 mM phenol solutions. Flow, at all frequencies under certain conditions, could augment phenol degradation. At 300 kHz there was excellent correlation between phenol degradation and dosimetry indicating a SC process, here flow acted to increase bubble transience, fragmentation and radical transfer to solution. At 300 kHz, although oxidation is the primary phenol degradation mechanism, it is limited, attributed to degradation intermediates which reduce OH radical availability and bubble collapse intensity. For 44 and 1000 kHz there was poor correlation between the two SC processes. At 44 kHz (0.01 mM), there was little to suggest high levels of intermediate production, therefore it was theorised that under more transient bubble conditions additional pyrolytic degradation occurs inside the bubbles via diffusion/nanodroplet injection mechanisms. At 1000 kHz, phenol degradation was maximised above all other systems attributed to increased numbers of active bubbles combined with the nature of the ultrasonic field. SL quenching, by phenol, was reduced in flow systems for the 20 and 60 mM phenol solutions. Here, where the standing wave field was reinforced, and bubble localisation increased, flow and the intrinsic properties of phenol acted to reduce coalescence/clustering. Further, at these higher concentrations, and in flow conditions, the accumulation of volatile phenol degradation products inside the bubbles are likely reduced leading to an increase SL.

Abstract
Steady efforts in using ultrasonic energy to treat oil-contaminated sand started in the early 2000s until today, although pilot studies on the area can be traced to even earlier dates. Owing to the unique characteristics of the acoustic means, the separation of oil from sand has been showing good results in laboratories. This review provides the compilation of researches and insights into the mechanism of separation thus far. Related topics in the areas of oil-contaminated sand characterizations, fundamental ultrasonic cleaning, and cavitation effects are also addressed. Nevertheless, many of the documented works are only at laboratory or pilot-scale level, and the comprehensive interaction between ultrasonic parameters towards cleaning efficiencies may not have been fully unveiled. Gaps and opportunities are also presented at the end of this article.

Abstract
A theoretical model for estimating inactivation effects on marine Vibrio sp. is developed from the viewpoint of the chemical action of the OH radicals induced by interaction of bubbles with shock waves. It consists of a biological probability model for cell viability and a bubble dynamic model for its collapsing motion due to the shock pressures. The biological probability model is built by defining a sterilized space of the OH radicals. To determine the radius of the sterilized space, the Herring equation is solved in the bubble dynamic model in consideration of the effect of the heat conductivity and mass transportation. Furthermore, the pressure waveform of incident shock wave used in the model is obtained with the pressure measurement. On the other hand, a bio-experiment of marine Vibrio sp. is carried out using a high-voltage power supply in a cylindrical water chamber. Finally, the viability ratio of marine bacteria estimated by the theoretical model is examined under the experimental conditions of this study. In addition, we also discuss the influence of bubble initial size for predicting the inactivation effects.

Abstract
Reserves of fossil fuels such as coal, oil and natural gas on earth are finite. The continuous use and burning of these fossil fuel resources in the industrial, domestic and transport sectors has resulted in the extremely high emission of greenhouse gases, GHGs (e.g. CO2) and solid particulates into the atmosphere. Therefore, it is necessary to explore pollution free and more efficient energy sources in order to replace depleting fossil fuels. The use of hydrogen (H2) as an alternative fuel source is particularly attractive due to its very high specific energy compared to other conventional fuels and its zero GHG emission when used in a fuel cell. Hydrogen can be produced through various process technologies such as thermal, electrolytic, photolytic and biological processes. Thermal processes include gas reforming, renewable liquid and biooil processing, biomass and coal gasification; however, these processes release a huge amount of greenhouse gases. Production of electrolytic hydrogen from water is an attractive method to produce clean hydrogen. It could even be a more promising technology when combining water electrolysis with power ultrasound to produce hydrogen efficiently where sonication enhances the electrolytic process in several ways such as enhanced mass transfer, removal of hydrogen and oxygen (O2) gas bubbles and activation of the electrode surface. In this review, production of hydrogen through sonochemical and sonoelectrochemical methods along with a brief description of current hydrogen production methods and power ultrasound are discussed.

Abstract
The main objective of this review is to derive the salient features of previously developed ultrasound-assisted methods for hydroxylating graphene and Buckminsterfullerene (C60). The pros and cons associated to ultrasound-assisted synthesis of hydroxy-carbon nanomaterials in designing the strategical methods for the industrial bulk production are also discussed. A guideline on the statistical methods has also been considered to further provide the scopes towards the application of the previously reported methods. Irrespective of many useful methods that have been developed in order to functionalize C60 and graphene by diverse oxygenated functional groups e.g. epoxide, hydroxyl, carboxyl as well as metal/metal oxide via a combination of organic chemistry and sonochemistry, there is no report dealing exclusively on the application of ultrasonic cavitation particularly to synthesising polyhydroxylated carbon nanomaterials. On this context, this review emphasizes in investigating the critical aspects of sono-nanochemistry and the statistical approaches to optimize the variables in the sonochemical process towards a large-scale synthesis of polyhydroxylated graphene and C60.

Abstract
Acoustic cavitation concentrates and releases a very large amount of energy in localized areas, which can be used for many physical and chemical processes. Even though acoustic cavitation has been studied widely for decades in lab-scale sonoreactors, only few studies have been devoted to characterize this event in big-scale sonoreactors, where the liquid depth may have a critical influence on the bubble collapse. The present computational study furnished numerical data about the effect of depth (z = 0-10 m) on acoustic cavitation with special focus on the role of attenuation of the ultrasound wave on the dramatic conditions developed within bubbles at collapse. The used mathematical model takes into account the liquid compressibility, surface tension and viscosity, depth as well as the attenuation of the ultrasound wave with depth. It was found that the maximum bubble temperature (Tmax) and pressure (pmax) at the collapse diminished considerably with deepening into water up to 10 m with a considerable contribution of the ultrasound wave attenuation in the overall reduction event. The reduction in Tmax and pmax with depth was more pronounced at higher frequency (1000 kHz) and lower temperature (10 °C) in which losses of about up to 72% in Tmax and till 94% in pmax (as compared with values at z = 0) were obtained at z = 10 m. Depending on operating conditions, i.e. frequency, acoustic intensity or liquid temperature, the ultrasound wave attenuation may contribute with up to 47% and 79% in the overall reductive effect of depth toward Tmax and pmax, respectively. These results were discussed, interpreted and used to support some available experimental observations. Finally, the results of the present study may help in designing large-scale sonoreactors through providing data about the effect of one of the missing links between lab-scale sonoreactors and industrial large-scale sonoreactors.

Abstract
In this research, tungsten disulfide (WS2) nanosheets as sonocatalyst were synthesized through a sonochemical route. Characterization of as-synthesized sonocatalyst was carried out by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), electron dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), Dot-mapping, high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and ultraviolet-visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (UV-vis DRS) analysis. WS2 nanosheets were evaluated for their sonocatalytic performance in order to remove basic violet 10 (BV10) under ultrasonic irradiation. The removal efficiency was maximized (94.01%) via the use of 1 g L-1 catalyst and 10 mg L-1 BV10 at pH = 4.5 and an ultrasonic power of 400 W within a reaction time of 150 min. In addition to BV10, the sonocatalytic elimination for a number of organic dyes viz. direct blue 71, acid blue 92, methylene blue, basic orange 2 and basic red 46 was examined to demonstrate the performance of WS2 nanosheets under the ultrasonic irradiation. The experimentation of trapping was conducted using edetate disodium (EDTA-2Na), tert-butyl alcohol (t-BuOH), and benzoquinone (BQ). According to the results, all radicals participated in the sonocatalytic activity. OH played a more prominent role than h+ and O2-∙ in the process of BV10 separation. Following five repetitive runs, the nanocomposites revealed a reusability of circa 18% drop in the elimination efficiency. The main removal intermediates were recognized by GC-MS technique.

Abstract
CO2 capture and utilization (CCU) is a process that captures CO2 emissions from sources such as fossil fuel power plants and reuses them so that they will not enter the atmosphere. Among the various ways of recycling CO2, reduction reactions are extensively studied at lab-scale. However, CO2 reduction by standard methods is difficult. Sonochemistry may be used in CO2 gas mixtures bubbled through water subjected to ultrasound waves. Indeed, the sonochemical reduction of CO2 in water has been already investigated by some authors, showing that fuel species (CO and H2) are obtained in the final products. The aim of this work is to model, for a single bubble, the close coupling of the mechanisms of bubble dynamics with the kinetics of gas phase reactions in the bubble that can lead to CO2 reduction. An estimation of time-scales is used to define the controlling steps and consequently to solve a reduced model. The calculation of the concentration of free radicals and gases formed in the bubble is undertaken over many cycles to look at the effects of ultrasound frequency, pressure amplitude, initial bubble radius and bubble composition in CO2. The strong effect of bubble composition on the CO2 reduction rate is confirmed in accordance with experimental data from the literature. When the initial fraction of CO2 in the bubble is low, bubble growth and collapse are slightly modified with respect to simulation without CO2, and chemical reactions leading to CO2 reduction are promoted. However, the peak collapse temperature depends on the thermal properties of the CO2 and greatly decreases as the CO2 increases in the bubble. The model shows that initial bubble radius, ultrasound frequency and pressure amplitude play a critical role in CO2 reduction. Hence, in the case of a bubble with an initial radius of around 5 μm, CO2 reduction appears to be more favorable at a frequency around 300 kHz than at a low frequency of around 20 kHz. Finally, the industrial application of ultrasound to CO2 reduction in water would be largely dependent on sonochemical efficiency. Under the conditions tested, this process does not seem to be sufficiently efficient.

Abstract
In this work, a comparison between the temperatures/pressures within acoustic cavitation bubble in an imidazolium-based room-temperature ionic liquid (RTIL), 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(triflluoromethyl-sulfonyl)imide ([BMIM][NTf2]), and in water has been made for a wide range of cavitation parameters including frequency (140-1000kHz), acoustic intensity (0.5-1Wcm-2), liquid temperature (20-50°C) and external static pressure (0.7-1.5atm). The used cavitation model takes into account the liquid compressibility as well as the surface tension and the viscosity of the medium. It was found that the bubble temperatures and pressures were always much higher in the ionic liquid compared to those predicted in water. The valuable effect of [BMIM][NTf2] on the bubble temperature was more pronounced at higher acoustic intensity and liquid temperature and lower frequency and external static pressure. However, confrontation between the predicted and the experimental estimated temperatures in ionic liquids showed an opposite trend as the temperatures measured in some pure ionic liquids are of the same order as those observed in water. The injection of liquid droplets into cavitation bubbles, the pyrolysis of ionic liquids at the bubble-solution interface as well as the lower number of collapsing bubbles in the ionic liquid may be the responsible for the lower measured bubble temperatures in ionic liquids, as compared with water.

Abstract
Barium titanate (BaTiO3) nanoparticles were successfully synthesized via a sonochemical method (25 kHz) at a constant temperature of 25 °C and atmospheric pressure without a calcination step. Barium hydroxide Ba(OH)2 and diisopropoxytitanium bis(acetylacetonate) (C12H28O6Ti) were used as the starting materials. The effects of the concentration of NaOH used and ultrasonic reaction time were investigated. The phase composition, functional groups and morphology of synthesized powders were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Fourier transform Raman spectroscopy (FT-Raman) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The XRD and FT-Raman results revealed the cubic structure of BaTiO3. The optimal NaOH concentration and ultrasonic reaction time for producing a narrow particle size distribution and the bowl-like structure of BaTiO3 nanoparticles were 10 M and 1 h, respectively. TEM imagery showed their morphology as a monodispersed bowl-like structure with a size of 54.90 ± 18.18 nm. After longer ultrasonic contact times, the bowl-like structure tended to fracture forming irregularly shaped nano-sized BaTiO3 particles.

Abstract
The effect of ultrasound on generating and controlling the cavitation bubble of the grinding fluid during ultrasonic vibration honing was investigated. The grinding fluid on the surface of the honing stone was measured by utilizing the digital microscope VHX-600ESO. Based on analyzing the cavitation mechanism of the grinding fluid, the bubble dynamics model under conventional honing (CH) and ultrasonic vibration honing (UVH) was established respectively. Difference of dynamic behaviors of the bubble between the cases in UVH and CH was compared respectively, and the effects of acoustic amplitude and ultrasonic frequency on the bubble dynamics were simulated numerically using the Runge-Kutta fourth order method with variable step size adaptive control. Finally, the cavitation intensity of grinding fluids under ultrasound was measured quantitatively using acoustimeter. The results showed that the grinding fluid subjected to ultrasound can generate many bubbles and further forms numerous groups of araneose cavitation bubbles on the surface of the honing stone. The oscillation of the bubble under UVH is more intense than the case under CH, and the maximum velocity of the bubble wall under UVH is higher two magnitudes than the case under CH. For lower acoustic amplitude, the dynamic behaviors of the bubble under UVH are similar to that case under CH. As increasing acoustic amplitude, the cavitation intensity of the bubble is growing increased. Honing pressure has an inhabitation effect on cavitation effect of the grinding fluid. The perfect performance of cavitation of the grinding fluid can be obtained when the device of UVH is in the resonance. However, the cavitation intensity of the grinding fluid can be growing weakened with increasing ultrasonic frequency, when the device of UVH is in the off-resonance. The experimental results agree with the theoretical and numerical analysis, which provides a method for exploring applications of the cavitation effect in ultrasonic assisted machining.

Abstract
In this review the phenomenon of ultrasonic cavitation and associated sonochemistry is presented through system parameters. Primary parameters are defined and considered, namely; pressure amplitude, frequency and reactor design; including transducer type, signal type, vessel-transducer ratio, liquid flow, liquid height, liquid temperature and the presence of a reflective plate. Secondary parameters are similarly characterised and involve the use of gas and liquid additives to influence the chemical and physical environments. Each of the parameters are considered in terms of their effect on bubble characteristics and subsequent impact on sonochemical activity. Evidence suggests that via parametric variation, the reaction products and efficiency may be controlled. This is hypothesised to occur through manipulation of the structural stability of the bubble.

Abstract
In this paper, the effect of periodate (IO4-) on the ultrasonic degradation at 300kHz of Brilliant Blue R (BBR), an organic dye pollutant, was investigated. The experiments were realized in the absence and presence of periodate for various operating conditions including initial solution pH (2-8) and delivered ultrasonic power (20-80W). It was found that periodate greatly enhanced the sonochemical degradation of BBR. The degradation rate increased significantly with increasing IO4- concentration up to 10mM and decreased afterward. With 10mM of periodate, the degradation rate was 2.4-fold higher than that with ultrasound alone. The chemical probes experiments showed that periodate activation into free radicals (IO3, IO4 and OH) takes place by sonolysis and iodine radicals contribute significantly in the oxidation process. It was found that the periodate-enhanced effect was strongly experimental parameters dependent. The advantageous effect of periodate increased significantly with decreasing power and the best enhancing effect was obtained for the lowest power. Correspondingly, the periodate-enhanced effect increased with pH increase in the range 2-8 and it was more remarkable at near alkaline condition (pH 8). A reaction scheme for periodate sonolysis was proposed, for the first time, discussed and then used for interpreting the obtained results.

Abstract
TiO2/Montmorillonite (TiO2/MMT) nanocomposite as sonocatalyst was produced by immobilizing synthesized TiO2 on the surface of montmorillonite. The characteristics of produced nanocomposite were investigated using XRD, XRF, FTIR, TEM, SEM, EDX, UV-vis DRS and nitrogen adsorption-desorption analyses. The synthesized TiO2 and TiO2/MMT samples were applied as catalysts for sonocatalytic degradation of ciprofloxacin (CIP). The performance of the TiO2/MMT was greater than pure TiO2 sample in treatment of CIP solution. The degradation efficiency of the CIP by sonocatalytic process was affected by solution pH, catalyst dosage, initial CIP concentrations and ultrasonic power. Degradation efficiency of 65.01% was obtained at the pH of 6, catalyst dosage of 0.2gL-1, initial CIP concentration of 10mgL-1 and ultrasonic power of 650WL-1. It was observed that the presence of inorganic and organic scavengers suppressed the performance of sonocatalytic process. The stability of the nanocomposite was studied in several successive experiments, and the degradation efficiency declined only 61.48% after 4 repeated experiments. The main degradation by-products were recognized by GC-MS method to propose the possible sonocatalytic mechanism for the degradation of CIP.

Abstract
This work explores the effect of persulfate (PS) on the sonochemical degradation of organic pollutants taking naphthol blue black (NBB), an anionic diazo dye, as a substrate model. The sonolytic experiments were conducted in the absence and presence of PS under various experimental conditions including acoustic power (10-80W), frequency (20 and 585kHz) and saturating gas (argon, air and nitrogen). Experimental results showed that PS decomposition into sulfate radical (SO4-) takes place by sonolysis and increasing PS concentration up to 1g/L would result in an increase in the NBB degradation rate. It was found that the PS-enhanced effect was strongly operating parameters dependent. The positive effect of PS decreased with increasing power and the best enhancing effect was obtained for the lowest acoustic power. Correspondingly, the PS-enhanced effect was more remarkable at low frequency (20kHz) than that observed at high frequency ultrasound (585kHz). Nitrogen saturating gas gave the best enhanced effect of PS than argon and air atmospheres. Theoretical (computer simulation of bubble collapse) and experimental measurements of the yields of free radical generation under the different experimental conditions have been made for interpreting the obtained effects of PS on the sonochemical degradation of the dye pollutant. The experimental findings were attributed to the fact that radical-radical recombination reactions occur at faster rate than the radical-organic reaction when the concentration of free radicals is too high (at higher sonochemical conditions).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Various studies have shown that non-surgical periodontal treatment is correlated with reduction in clinical parameters and plasma levels of inflammatory markers. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of long-term weekly supragingival irrigations with aerosolized 0.5% hydrogen peroxide as maintenance therapy followed by non-surgical periodontal treatment on clinical parameters, plasma levels of inflammatory markers, and morphological changes in gingival tissues of patients with periodontitis. MATERIAL AND METHODS In total, 43 patients with chronic periodontitis were randomly allocated to long-term maintenance therapy. The patients' periodontal status was assessed using clinical parameters of approximal plaque index, modified gingival index, bleeding index, pocket probing depth, and plasma levels of inflammatory markers (high-sensitivity C-reactive protein and white blood cell count) at baseline and after 1, 2, and 3 years. The morphological status of gingival tissues (immediately after supragingival irrigation) was assessed microscopically. RESULTS Complete data were obtained on 34 patients. A highly statistically significant and consistent reduction was observed in all long-term clinical parameters and plasma levels of inflammatory markers. Morphological data showed abundant spherical bubbles in gingival tissues. CONCLUSIONS 1. The present study showed that non-surgical periodontal treatment with long-term weekly supragingival irrigations with aerosolized 0.5% hydrogen peroxide improved clinical periodontal status and plasma levels of inflammatory markers and may be a promising method in periodontology. 2. We found that supragingival irrigation with aerosolized 0.5% hydrogen peroxide created large numbers of spherical bubbles in gingival tissues.
