Abstract
Direct sound printing (DSP), an alternative additive manufacturing process driven by sonochemical polymerization, has traditionally been confined to a single acoustic focal region, resulting in a voxel-by-voxel printing approach. To overcome this limitation, we introduce holographic direct sound printing (HDSP), where acoustic holograms, storing cross-sectional images of the desired parts, pattern acoustic waves to induce regional cavitation bubbles and on-demand regional polymerization. HDSP outperforms DSP in terms of printing speed by one order of magnitude and yields layerless printed structures. In our HDSP implementation, the hologram remains stationary while the printing platform moves along a three-dimensional path using a robotic arm. We present sono-chemiluminescence and high-speed imaging experiments to thoroughly investigate HDSP and demonstrate its versatility in applications such as remote ex-vivo in-body printing and complex robot trajectory planning. We showcase multi-object and multi-material printing and provide a comprehensive process characterization, including the effects of hologram design and manufacturing on the HDSP process, polymerization progression tracking, porosity tuning, and robotic trajectory computation. Our HDSP method establishes the integration of acoustic holography in DSP and related applications.

Influences of ultrasonic treatment on the physicochemical properties and microstructure of diacylglycerol-loaded emulsion stabilized with soybean protein isolate and sodium alginate. ULTRASONICS SONOCHEMISTRY 2024; 108:106981. [PMID: 38981339 PMCID: PMC11280087 DOI: 10.1016/j.ultsonch.2024.106981] [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: 05/21/2024] [Revised: 06/22/2024] [Accepted: 07/04/2024] [Indexed: 07/11/2024]
Abstract
This study examined the impacts of ultrasonic power (0, 150, 300, 450, 600, and 750 W) and ultrasonic durations (3, 6, 9, 12, and 15 min) on the physicochemical properties and microstructure of diacylglycerol (DAG)-loaded emulsions stabilized with soybean protein isolate (SPI) and sodium alginate (SA). The findings indicated that the smallest particle size, zeta potential, and contact angle for SPI-SA-DAG emulsions were respectively 5.58 μm, -49.85 mV, and 48.65°, achieved at an ultrasonic power of 450 W. The emulsification properties, loss modulus, storage modulus, and apparent viscosity of the emulsions were optimal at this power setting and at a duration of 9 min. Analytical techniques, including confocal laser scanning-, scanning electron-, and atomic force microscopy, revealed that ultrasonication significantly altered emulsion aggregation state, with the surface roughness (Rq) being minimized at 450 W. These results demonstrated that the stability of SPI-SA-DAG emulsions can be effectively enhanced by an appropriate ultrasonic treatment at 450 W for 9 min. This research provides theoretical support for the broad application of sonication techniques in the food industry.

Abstract
Electronic waste (e-waste) recycling is becoming a global concern owing to its immense quantity, hazardous character and the potential loss of valuable metals. The many processes involved in e-waste recycling stem from a mixture of physicochemical reactions, and understanding the principles of these reactions can lead to more efficient recycling methods. In this Review, we discuss the principles behind photochemistry, thermochemistry, mechanochemistry, electrochemistry and sonochemistry for metal recovery, polymer decomposition and pollutant elimination from e-waste. We also discuss how these processes induce or improve reaction rates, selectivity and controllability of e-waste recycling based on thermodynamics and kinetics, free radicals, chemical bond energy, electrical potential regulation and more. Lastly, key factors, limitations and suggestions for improvements of these physicochemical reactions for e-waste recycling are highlighted, wherein we also indicate possible research directions for the future.

Abstract
Sonochemical synthesis can be a facile, fast, efficient, versatile and economical way to prepare a large variety of conventional or novel nanostructured materials (metallic, magnetic, semiconducting, polymeric, etc.). In this work, zinc oxide nanocrystals were synthesized by irradiating and heating at 90 °C in a commercial ultrasonic bath a water solution of zinc nitrate hexahydrate and ammonia solution or hexamethylenetetramine as base catalysts. The evolution of the powder morphology and its crystalline structure were investigated at different times of ultrasonic irradiation (0-9 hours) and compared with those of samples obtained by only heating the solutions in a muffle furnace in order to enlighten the growth mechanism. It resulted that: i) the crystal morphology depends on the selected base, ii) for samples obtained by using ultrasounds, the homogeneity of the powders depends on the irradiation time, iii) by comparing all samples obtained at 7 hours of heating, the aspect ratio of the crystals is higher for those that also underwent to ultrasounds.

Abstract
The principle of Fenton reagent is to produce ·OH by mixing H2O2 and Fe2+ to realize the oxidation of organic pollutants, although Fenton reagent has the advantages of non-toxicity and short reaction time, but there are its related defects. The Fenton-like technology has been widely studied because of its various forms and better results than the traditional Fenton technology in terms of pollutant degradation efficiency. This paper reviews the electro-Fenton technology among the Fenton-like technologies and provides an overview of the homogeneous electro-Fenton. It also focuses on summarizing the effects of factors such as H2O2, reactant concentration, reactor volume and electrode quality, reaction time and voltage (potential) on the efficiency of electro-Fenton process. It is shown that appropriate enhancement of H2O2 concentration, voltage (potential) and reaction volume can help to improve the process efficiency; the process efficiency also can be improved by increasing the reaction time and electrode quality. Feeding modes of H2O2 have different effects on process efficiency. Finally, a considerable number of experimental studies have shown that the combination of electro-Fenton with ultrasound, anodic oxidation and electrocoagulation technologies is superior to the single electro-Fenton process in terms of pollutant degradation.

Abstract
Plastics have become indispensable in modern society; however, the proliferation of their waste has become a problem that can no longer be ignored as most plastics are not biodegradable. Depolymerization/degradation through sustainable processes in the context of the circular economy are urgent issues. The presence of multiple types of plastic materials makes it necessary to study the specific characteristics of each material. This mini-review aims to provide an overview of technological approaches and their performance for the depolymerization and/or degradation of one of the most widespread plastic materials, polypropylene (PP). The state of the art is presented, describing the most relevant technologies focusing on advanced oxidation technologies (AOT) and the results obtained so far for some of the approaches, such as ozonation, sonochemistry, or photocatalysis, with the final aim of making more sustainable the PP depolymerization/degradation process.

Abstract
Sonochemistry is the use of ultrasonic waves in an aqueous medium, to generate acoustic cavitation. In this context, sonochemistry emerged as a focal point over the past few decades, starting as a manageable process such as a cleaning technique. Now, it is found in a wide range of applications across various chemical, physical, and biological processes, creating opportunities for analysis between these processes. Sonochemistry is a powerful and eco-friendly technique often called "green chemistry" for less energy use, toxic reagents, and residues generation. It is increasing the number of applications achieved through the ultrasonic irradiation (USI) method. Sonochemistry has been established as a sustainable and cost-effective alternative compared to traditional industrial methods. It promotes scientific and social well-being, offering non-destructive advantages, including rapid processes, improved process efficiency, enhanced product quality, and, in some cases, the retention of key product characteristics. This versatile technology has significantly contributed to the food industry, materials technology, environmental remediation, and biological research. This review is created with enthusiasm and focus on shedding light on the manifold applications of sonochemistry. It delves into this technique's evolution and current applications in cleaning, environmental remediation, microfluidic, biological, and medical fields. The purpose is to show the physicochemical effects and characteristics of acoustic cavitation in different processes across various fields and to demonstrate the extending application reach of sonochemistry. Also to provide insights into the prospects of this versatile technique and demonstrating that sonochemistry is an adapting system able to generate more efficient products or processes.

Abstract
Dye wastewater is a type of high-concentration, high chromaticity, and high salinity organic wastewater, which is generally treated with activated carbon adsorbent. The effective regeneration of granular activated carbon (GAC) is the key to reducing the operating cost of GAC in the wastewater treatment process. The regeneration characteristics of saturated GAC adsorbed on 288 orange dye wastewater were studied by using the ultrasonic coupled thermal regeneration method. The results showed that the regeneration efficiency of GAC adsorbed on 288 orange dye wastewater increased with the increase of ultrasound power. The optimal ultrasound frequency and regeneration temperature were determined to be 45 kHz and 60 ℃, and the relationship between regeneration times and carbon loss rate was explored. The combination of ultrasound and high-temperature heating methods has successfully improved the regeneration efficiency of GAC and significantly reduced the high-temperature thermal regeneration time of GAC, thereby reducing the mass loss rate of GAC. The performance changes of fresh activated carbon (FAC), saturated activated carbon (SAC), ultrasonic regeneration of activated carbon (UAC), and thermal regeneration of activated carbon (TAC) during the combined regeneration process were explored by characterizing the regenerated GAC. Infrared characterization showed that the C-O group of GAC was significantly weakened after coupling treatment, indicating that ultrasonic treatment can significantly enhance the desorption effect of thermal regeneration. The microjet, shock wave, and cavitation effects generated by ultrasonic treatment restore the specific surface area of GAC, mainly increasing the micropore volume and pore size of GAC, and enhancing the treatment effect of thermal regeneration.

Abstract
A group of fluorinated organic molecules known as per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) have been commonly produced and circulated in the environment. PFAS, owing to multiple strong CF bonds, exhibit exceptional stability and possess a high level of resistance against biological or chemical degradation. Recently, PFAS have been identified to cause numerous hazardous effects on the biotic ecosystem. As a result, extensive efforts have been made in recent years to develop effective methods to remove PFAS. Adsorption, filtration, heat treatment, chemical oxidation/reduction, and soil washing are a few of the physicochemical techniques that have shown their ability to remove PFAS from contaminated matrixes. However these methods also carry significant drawbacks, including the fact that they are expensive, energy-intensive, unsuitable for in-situ treatment, and requirement to be carried under dormant conditions. The metabolic products released upon PFAS degradation are largely unknown, despite the fact that thermal disintegration methods are widely used. In contrast to physical and chemical methods, biological degradation of PFAS has been regarded as efficient method. However, PFAS are difficult to instantly and completely metabolize through biological methods due to the limitations of biocatalytic mechanisms. Nevertheless, cost, easy-to-operate and environmentally safe are some of the advantages over its counterpart. The present review comprehensively discusses the occurrence of PFAS, the state-of-the science of remediation technologies and approaches applied, and the remediation challenges. The article also focuses on the future research directions toward the development of effective methods for PFAS-contaminated site in-situ treatment.

Abstract
In this study, ultrasonic-ethanol pretreatment combined with AEE was developed for oil extraction from hemp seeds. The oil yield reached a maximum of 23.32 % at 200 W ultrasonic power and 30 min ultrasonic time, at this point, the degradation rate of Δ9-THC was 83.11 %. By determining the composition of hemp seed before and after pretreatment, it was shown that ultrasonic-ethanol pretreatment reduced the protein content of the raw material. An enzyme mixture consisting of pectinase and hemicellulase (1/1/1, w/w/w) was experimentally determined to be used, and the AEE extraction conditions were optimized using the Plackett-Burman design and the Box-Behnken. The optimal conditions were determined to be pH 5, total enzyme activity of 37,800 U/g, liquid-solid ratio of 10.4 mL/g, enzyme digestion temperature of 32 °C, enzymatic time of 189 min, and oil recovery of 88.38 %. The results of confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed that the emulsion formed during ultrasonic ethanol pretreatment was not uniformly distributed, and the droplets appeared to be aggregated; and the irregular pores of hemp seed increased after pretreatment. The contents of Δ9-THC and CBN in the extracted oil samples were 9.58 mg/kg and 52.45 mg/kg, respectively. Compared with the oil extracted by Soxhlet extraction (SE), the oil extracted by this experimental method was of better quality and similar in fatty acid composition.

Gohlke G, Cauduro VH, Frozi E, Rocha LF, Machado GR, Henn AS, Tao Y, Mesko MF, M M Flores E. Low cost sample preparation method using ultrasound for the determination of environmentally critical elements in seaweed. ULTRASONICS SONOCHEMISTRY 2024; 103:106788. [PMID: 38309048 PMCID: PMC10848136 DOI: 10.1016/j.ultsonch.2024.106788] [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: 12/29/2023] [Revised: 01/19/2024] [Accepted: 01/27/2024] [Indexed: 02/05/2024]
Abstract
In this study, ultrasound (US) was evaluated for As, Cd, Pb, Mn, Sr and V extraction from seaweed samples. The following parameters of ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) using an US bath were: frequency (25 to 130 kHz), amplitude (30 to 100%), temperature (30 to 80 °C), sample mass (50 to 200 mg), extractant concentration (1 to 3 mol L-1 of HNO3) and treatment time (5 to 30 min). Acoustic density and power density distribution were calculated using the calorimetric method and mapping of the acoustic pressure distribution was also evaluated. The optimized UAE conditions were 200 mg of sample in 10 mL of 2 mol L-1 HNO3 and 30 min of sonication in a 25 kHz US bath (37.2 ± 4.0 W L-1) at 70% of amplitude and 70 °C. Analytes were quantified using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry and results were compared with values obtained using "silent" conditions (magnetic or mechanical stirring at 500 rpm, and without stirring), and a reference method based on microwave-assisted wet digestion (MAWD). The UAE method demonstrated the best extraction efficiency (higher than 95%) for all analytes, especially for As, Cd and V, with lower standard deviations (up to 5%) and lower blank values in comparison with the silent conditions. The proposed UAE method was more advantageous than the reference method, being faster, simpler, safer, more environmentally friendly, and with higher detectability (lower limits of quantification, from 0.0033 to 1.34 µg g-1). In addition, negligible blank values were obtained for UAE and no interference were observed in the determination step. Furthermore, the optimized UAE method was applied for Antarctic seaweed samples and comparison with results obtained by MAWD was satisfactory. In this sense, UAE is demonstrated to be a suitable option for sample preparation of seaweed samples and further determination of environmentally critical elements avoiding the use of concentrated reagents as in the MAWD reference method.

Recent progress on sonochemical production for the synthesis of efficient photocatalysts and the impact of reactor design. ULTRASONICS SONOCHEMISTRY 2023; 100:106610. [PMID: 37806038 PMCID: PMC10568290 DOI: 10.1016/j.ultsonch.2023.106610] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2023] [Revised: 09/18/2023] [Accepted: 09/19/2023] [Indexed: 10/10/2023]
Abstract
Sonochemical-assisted synthesis has flourished recently for the design of photocatalysts. The main power used is ultrasound that allows the nanomaterials shape and size modification and control. This review highlights the effect in formation mechanism by ultrasound application and the most common photocatalysts that were prepared via sonochemical techniques. Moreover, the challenge for the suitable reactor design for the synthesis of materials or for their photocatalytic evaluation is discussed since the most prominent reactor systems, batch, and continuous flow, has both advantages and drawbacks. This work summarises the significance of sonochemical synthesis for photocatalytic materials as a green technology that needs to be further investigated for the preparation of new materials and the scale up of developed reactor systems to meet industrial needs.

ULTRASONICS SONOCHEMISTRY 2023; 99:106542. [PMID: 37572427 PMCID: PMC10448224 DOI: 10.1016/j.ultsonch.2023.106542] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/06/2023] [Revised: 07/25/2023] [Accepted: 07/28/2023] [Indexed: 08/14/2023]
Abstract
This investigation focuses on the influence of geometric factors on cavitational activity within a 20kHz sonoreactor containing water. Three vessels with different shapes were used, and the transducer immersion depth and liquid height were varied, resulting in a total of 126 experiments conducted under constant driving current. For each one, the dissipated power was quantified using calorimetry, while luminol mapping was employed to identify the shape and location of cavitation zones. The raw images of blueish light emission were transformed into false colors and corrected to compensate for refraction by the water-glass and glass-air interfaces. Additionally, all configurations were simulated using a sonoreactor model that incorporates a nonlinear propagation of acoustic waves in cavitating liquids. A systematic visual comparison between luminol maps and color-plots displaying the computed bubble collapse temperature in bubbly regions was conducted. The calorimetric power exhibited a nearly constant yield of approximately 70% across all experiments, thus validating the transducer command strategy. However, the numerical predictions consistently overestimated the electrical and calorimetric powers by a factor of roughly 2, indicating an overestimation of dissipation in the cavitating liquid model. Geometric variations revealed non-monotonic relationships between transducer immersion depth and dissipated power, emphasizing the importance of geometric effects in sonoreactor. Complex features were revealed by luminol maps, exhibiting appearance, disappearance, and merging of different luminol zones. In certain parametric regions, the luminol bright regions are reminiscent of linear eigenmodes of the water/vessel system. In the complementary parametric space, these structures either combine with, or are obliterated by typical elongated axial structures. The latter were found to coincide with an increased calorimetric power, and are conjectured to result from a strong cavitation field beneath the transducer producing acoustic streaming. Similar methods were applied to an additional set of 57 experiments conducted under constant geometry but with varying current, and suggested that the transition to elongated structures occurs above some amplitude threshold. While the model partially reproduced some experimental observations, further refinement is required to accurately account for the intricate acoustic phenomena involved.

Abstract
The photocatalytic technique has drawn far-ranging interests in addressing the current issues; however, its property suffers from the limited visible light response and rapid recombination of carriers. To address these issues, two specific approaches have been proposed to enhance the photocatalytic activity: (1) ultrasound-assisted synthesis has been utilized to prepare photocatalysts, resulting in refined grain size, increased specific surface area, and reduced photogenerated carrier recombination; (2) sonophotocatalysis and piezoelectric enhanced photocatalysis have been developed to accelerate the reaction, which utilizes the synergism between ultrasound and light. On one side, sonophotocatalysis generates cavitation bubbles which induce more reactive radicals for redox reactions. On the other side, ultrasound induces deformation of the piezoelectric material structure, which changes the internal piezoelectric potential and improves the photocatalytic performance. Currently, intensive efforts have been devoted to related research and great progress has been reached with applications in pollutant degradation, new energy production, and other fields. This work starts by elucidating the fundamental concept of ultrasound-assisted photocatalyst synthesis and photocatalysis. Then, the synergistic behavior between ultrasonic and light in ultrasonic-assisted photocatalysis has been thoroughly discussed, including pollutant degradation, water splitting, and bacterial sterilization. Finally, the challenge and outlook are investigated and proposed.

Abstract
Migraine is a disabling neurovascular polygenic disorder affecting life quality with escorted socioeconomic encumbrances. Herein, we investigated the consolidated amalgamation of passive lipomer approach alongside active sonophoresis assisted transdermal delivery of zolmitriptan (ZT) using high frequency ultrasound pre-treatment protocol to mitigate migraine attacks. A modified nanoprecipitation technique was utilized to prepare zolmitriptan loaded lipomers (ZTL) adopting 23 factorial design. Three factors were scrutinized namely lipid type, ZT: lipid ratio and ZT: Gantrez® ratio. The prepared systems were characterized regarding particle size, zeta potential, polydispersity index, entrapment efficiency and in-vitro release studies. The best achieved ZTL system was evaluated for ZT- Gantrez® intermolecular interactions, drug crystallinity, morphology, ex-vivo permeation and histopathological examination. Finally, a comparative in-vivo biodistribution study through radiotracking technique using Technetium-99 m was adopted. L2 was the best-achieved ZTL system with respect to spherical particle size (390.7 nm), zeta-potential (-30.8 mV), PDI (0.2), entrapment efficiency (86.2%), controlled release profile, flux (147.13 μg/cm2/hr) and enhancement ratio (5.67). Histopathological studies proved the safety of L2 system upon application on skin. L2 revealed higher brain Cmax (12.21 %ID/g), prolonged brain MRT (8.67 hr), prolonged brain 0.23 hr), significantly high relative bioavailability (2929.36%) and similar brain Tmax (0.5 hr) compared to I.V. route with higher brain/blood ratio. Thus, sonophoresis assisted transdermal delivery of ZTL offers a propitious alterative to alleviate migraine symptoms.

Abstract
Molten metals have prospective applications as soft fluids with unique physical and chemical properties, yet materials based on them are still in their infancy and have great potential. Ultrasonic irradiation of molten metals in liquid media induces acoustic cavitation and dispersion of the liquid metal into micrometric and nanometric spheres. This review focuses on the synthesis of mmetallic materials via sonochemistry from molten metals with low melting point (< 420 ᴼC): Ga, Hg, In, Sn, Bi, Pb, and Zn, which can be melted in organic or inorganic media or water and of aqueous solutions of metallic ions to form two immiscible liquid phases. Organic molecule entrapment, polymer solubilization, chiral imprinting, and catalyst incorporation within metals or metallic particles were recently developed to provide novel hybrid nanomaterials for several applications including catalysis, fuel cells, and biomass-to-biofuel conversion. In all cases where molten metal was sonicated in an organic solvent, in addition to a solid precipitant, an interesting supernatant was obtained that contained metal-doped carbon dots (M@C-dots). Some of these M@C-dots were found to exhibit highly effective antimicrobial activity, promote neuronal tissue growth, or have utility in lithium-ion rechargeable batteries. The economic feasibility and commercial scalability of molten metal sonochemistry attract fundamental interest in the reaction mechanisms, as the versatility and controllability of the structure and material properties invite exploration of various applications.

Abstract
Tofu is nutritious, easy to make, and popular among consumers. At present, traditional tofu production has gradually become perfect, but there are still shortcomings, such as long soaking time, serious waste of water resources, and the inability to realize orders for production at any time. Moreover, tofu production standards have not yet been clearly defined, with large differences in quality between them, which is not conducive to industrialized and large-scale production. Ultrasound has become a promising green processing technology with advantages, such as high extraction rate, short processing time, and ease of operation. This review focused on the challenges associated with traditional tofu production during soaking, grinding, and boiling soybeans. Moreover, the advantages of ultrasonic processing over traditional processing like increasing nutrient content, improving gel properties, and inhibiting the activity of microorganisms were explained. Furthermore, the quantification of acoustic fields by real-time monitoring technology was introduced to construct the theoretical correlation between ultrasonic treatments and tofu processing. It was concluded that ultrasonic treatment improved the functional properties of soybean protein, such as solubility, emulsifying properties, foamability, rheological properties, gel strength, and thermal stability. Therefore, the application of ultrasonic technology to traditional tofu processing to optimize industrial parameters is promising.

Abstract
Sonochemistry in a thin fluid layer has advantages of no visible cavitation, no turbulence, negligible temperature changes (≲1 °C), low power transducers, and transmissibility (sound pressure amplification) of ≳106. Unlike sonochemistry in semi-infinite fluids, resonance and so constructive interference of sound pressure can be established in thin layers. Constructive interference enables substantial amplification of sound pressure at solid fluid interfaces. Fluid properties of sound velocity and attenuation, oscillator input frequency, and thin fluid layer thickness couple to established resonance in underdamped conditions. In thin layer sonochemistry (TLS), thin layers are established where ultrasonic wavelength and oscillator-interface separation are comparable, about a centimeter in water. Solution of a one dimensional wave equation identifies explicit relationships between the system parameters required to establish resonance and constructive interference in a thin layer.

Abstract
Herein, BiFeO3 nanorods (BFO NRs) was synthesized as the piezoelectric catalyst. The synergistic mechanism of sonolysis and sono-induced BFO-piezocatalysis in atenolol degradation was revealed and the effect of ultrasonic parameters on it was investigated for the first time. The results indicated that 100 kHz was the optimal frequency for the sonolytic and sono-piezocatalytic degradation of atenolol in ultrasound/BFO nanorods (US/BFO NRs) system, with the highest synergistic coefficient of 3.43. The piezoelectric potential differences of BFO NRs by COMSOL Multiphysics simulations further distinguishing that the impact of cavitation shock wave and ultrasonic vibration from sonochemistry reaction (i.e., 2.48, -2.48 and 6.60 V versus 0.008, -0.008 and 0.02 V under tensile, compressive and shear stress at 100 kHz). The latter piezoelectric potentials were insufficient for reactive-oxygen-species (ROS) generation, while the former contributed to 53.93% •OH yield in US/BFO NRs system. Sono-piezocatalysis was found more sensitive to ultrasonic power density than sonolysis. The quenching experiments and ESR tests indicated that the ROS contribution in atenolol degradation followed the order of •OH > 1O2 > h+ > O2•- in US/BFO NRs system and 1O2 generation is exclusively dissolved-oxygen dependent. Four degradation pathways for atenolol in US/BFO NRs system were proposed via products identification and DFT calculation. Toxicity assessment by ECOSAR suggested the toxicity of the degradation products could be controlled.

Abstract
Plasmonic nanostructures ensure the reception and harvesting of visible lights for novel photonic applications. In this area, plasmonic crystalline nanodomains decorated on the surface of two-dimensional (2D) semiconductor materials represent a new class of hybrid nanostructures. These plasmonic nanodomains activate supplementary mechanisms at material heterointerfaces, enabling the transfer of photogenerated charge carriers from plasmonic antennae into adjacent 2D semiconductors and therefore activate a wide range of visible-light assisted applications. Here, the controlled growth of crystalline plasmonic nanodomains on 2D Ga2O3 nanosheets was achieved by sonochemical-assisted synthesis. In this technique, Ag and Se nanodomains grew on 2D surface oxide films of gallium-based alloy. The multiple contribution of plasmonic nanodomains enabled the visible-light-assisted hot-electron generation at 2D plasmonic hybrid interfaces, and therefore considerably altered the photonic properties of the 2D Ga2O3 nanosheets. Specifically, the multiple contribution of semiconductor-plasmonic hybrid 2D heterointerfaces enabled efficient CO2 conversion through combined photocatalysis and triboelectric-activated catalysis. The solar-powered acoustic-activated conversion approach of the present study enabled us to achieve the CO2 conversion efficiency of more than 94% in the reaction chambers containing 2D Ga2O3-Ag nanosheets.

Abstract
Ultrasonic irradiation of molten metals in liquid media causes dispersion of the metals into suspensions of micro- and nanoparticles that can be separated. This is applicable mainly to low-mp elemental metals or alloys, but higher mp elemental metals or alloys were also reported. Among metals, mercury and gallium exhibit especially-low melting points and are thus considered as liquid metals (LMs). Sonication of mercury in aqueous solutions of certain metal ions can cause simultaneous reduction of the ions and reactions between the metals. Gallium can be melted and sonicated in warm water, as well as in aqueous solutions of various solutes such as metal ions and organic compounds, which opened a wide window of interactions between the gallium particles and the solutes. Sonication of molten metals in organic liquids, such as polyethylene glycol (PEG) 400, forms carbon dots (C-dots) doped with nanoparticles of these metals. This review article summarizes the various interactions and reactions that occur upon sonication of metals in liquid media.

Abstract
Ultrasounds are commonly used in medical imaging, solution homogenization, navigation, and ranging, but they are also a great energy source for chemical reactions. Sonochemistry uses ultrasounds and thus realizes one of the basic concepts of green chemistry, i.e., energy savings. Moreover, reduced reaction time, mostly using water as a solvent, and better product yields are among the many factors that make ultrasound-induced reactions greener than those performed under conventional conditions. Sonochemistry has been successfully implemented for the preparation of various materials; this review covers sonochemically synthesized nanoporous materials. For instance, sonochemical-assisted methods afforded ordered mesoporous silicas, spherical mesoporous silicas, periodic mesoporous organosilicas, various metal oxides, biomass-derived activated carbons, carbon nanotubes, diverse metal-organic frameworks, and covalent organic frameworks. Among these materials, highly porous samples have also been prepared, such as garlic peel-derived activated carbon with an apparent specific surface area of 3887 m2/g and MOF-177 with an SSA of 4898 m2/g. Additionally, many of them have been examined for practical usage in gas adsorption, water treatment, catalysis, and energy storage-related applications, yielding satisfactory results.

Abstract
Over 3000 mercury (Hg)-contaminated sites worldwide contain liquid metallic Hg [Hg(0)l] representing a continuous source of elemental Hg(0) in the environment through volatilization and solubilization in water. Currently, there are few effective treatment technologies available to remove or sequester Hg(0)l in situ. We investigated sonochemical treatments coupled with complexing agents, polysulfide and sulfide, in oxidizing Hg(0)l and stabilizing Hg in water, soil and quartz sand. Results indicate that sonication is highly effective in breaking up and oxidizing liquid Hg(0)l beads via acoustic cavitation, particularly in the presence of polysulfide. Without complexing agents, sonication caused only minor oxidation of Hg(0)l but increased headspace gaseous Hg(0)g and dissolved Hg(0)aq in water. However, the presence of polysulfide essentially stopped Hg(0) volatilization and solubilization. As a charged polymer, polysulfide was more effective than sulfide in oxidizing Hg(0)l and subsequently stabilizing the precipitated metacinnabar (β-HgS) nanocrystals. Sonochemical treatments with sulfide yielded incomplete oxidation of Hg(0)l, likely resulting from the formation of HgS coatings on the dispersed µm-size Hg(0)l bead surfaces. Sonication with polysulfide also resulted in rapid oxidation of Hg(0)l and precipitation of HgS in quartz sand and in the Hg(0)l-contaminated soil. This research indicates that sonochemical treatment with polysulfide could be an effective means in rapidly converting Hg(0)l to insoluble HgS precipitates in water and sediments, thereby preventing its further emission and release to the environment. We suggest that future studies are performed to confirm its technical feasibility and treatment efficacy for remediation applications.

Abstract
The research for "green" and economically feasible approaches such as (photo)catalysis especially for biomass valorization such as selective oxidation of biomass derived compounds like aromatic alcohols to corresponding aldehyde by avoiding the harsh reaction conditions and the addition of reagents concentrate the focus of attention the last years. Hence, design and development of novel photocatalyst for the partial selective oxidation is highly desirable. In this research work, ultrasonication of different frequencies (22, 40, 80 kHz) and different amplitudes was utilized as synthesis tool in order to obtain novel materials by precipitation method. The synthesized samples were characterized by using different techniques such as N2 sorption, TEM, XPS, XRD, thermal analysis, and diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. The synthesized sample by using low ultrasound frequency (22 kHz) and amplitude showed a mixed morphological and structural nature consisting of asymmetric 1-dimensional (nanorods-like), layered nano-structures and not well-defined areas, leading to elevate for metal oxide specific surface areas up to 155 m2/g. The observed 1-D nanostructures have diamentions in the range of 20-60 nm. This sample revealed the highest photo-oxidation efficiency for the selective conversion of two biomass-derived, and more specifically lignin-inspired model compounds, benzyl alcohol and cinnamyl alcohol to benzaldehyde and cinnamyl aldehyde, respectively, and hence the highest yield towards the desired aldehydes. The selective photo-oxidation activity was retained even after 5 photocatalytic cycles, while no leaching of Ti was recorded.

Abstract
Hydrodynamic cavitation (HC), which can effectively induce sonochemical effects, is widely considered a promising process intensification technology. In the present study, HC was successfully utilized to intensify the alkali activation of GPs for SCs, for the first time. Five BDCMs were synthesized following the method reported in the literature. For comparison, four more BDCMs with HC-treated, among which a sample was further doped with nitrogen during the HC treatment, were prepared. Then all the samples were compared from microscopical characteristics to electrochemical performance as SCs materials. The morphology study demonstrated that the HC treatment had created many defects and amorphous carbon structures on the GP-based BDCMs, with the highest SSA reaching 3272 m2/g (1:6-HCGP), which 32 folded that of the Raw carbon sample's. The HC treatment also intensified the N-doping process. XRD and XPS results manifested that the N content had been increased and consequently changed the electronic structure of the carbon atoms, leading to the increase of specific capacitance (1:6-HCGP+N-based SC, 227 F/g at 10 A/g). The cycle performance proved that the GP-based BDCMs have long-term stability, indicating that the HC-treated BDCMs were good choices for energy storage technologies. Compared with the ultrasound-assisted method, which may have a high energy density, the HC-assisted method enables high production and energy efficiency. This work is a first time attempt towards the industrial application of HC method in energy-related materials synthesis and encourages more in-depth studies in the future.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to explore the structural changes and oxidation resistance of ultrasonic degradation products of sugar beet pectin (SBP). The changes in the structures and antioxidant activity between SBP and its degradation products were compared. As the ultrasonic treatment time increased, the content of α-D-1,4-galacturonic acid (GalA) also increased, to 68.28%. In addition, the neutral sugar (NS) content, esterification degree (DE), particle size, intrinsic viscosity and viscosity-average molecular weight (MV) of the modified SBP decreased. Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were used to study the degradation of the SBP structure after ultrasonication. After ultrasonic treatment, the DPPH and ABTS free radical scavenging activities of the modified SBP reached 67.84% and 54.67% at the concentration of 4 mg/mL, respectively, and the thermal stability of modified SBP was also improved. All of the results indicate that the ultrasonic technology is an environmentally friendly, simple, and effective strategy to improve the antioxidant capacity of SBP.

Abstract
Food safety is a key issue in promoting human health and sustaining life. Food analysis is essential to prevent food components or contaminants causing foodborne-related illnesses to consumers. Electrochemical sensors have become a desirable method for food safety analysis due to their simple, accurate and rapid response. The low sensitivity and poor selectivity of electrochemical sensors working in complex food sample matrices can be overcome by coupling them with covalent organic frameworks (COFs). COFs are a kind of novel porous organic polymer formed by light elements, such as C, H, N and B, via covalent bonds. This review focuses on the recent progress in COF-based electrochemical sensors for food safety analysis. Firstly, the synthesis methods of COFs are summarized. Then, a discussion of the strategies is given to improve the electrochemistry performance of COFs. There follows a summary of the recently developed COF-based electrochemical sensors for the determination of food contaminants, including bisphenols, antibiotics, pesticides, heavy metal ions, fungal toxin and bacterium. Finally, the challenges and the future directions in this field are discussed.

Abstract
The enrichment and transport of antibiotics in the environments pose many potential hazards to aquatic animals and humans, which has become one of the public health challenges worldwide. As a widely used class of antibiotics, fluoroquinolones (FQs) generally accumulated in the environments as traditional sewage treatment plants cannot completely remove them. Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) have been shown to be a promising method for the abatement of antibiotic contamination. In this review, influencing factors and relevant mechanisms of FQs removal by various AOPs were summarized. Compared with other AOPs, photocatalytic ozone may be considered as a cost-effective method for degrading FQs. Finally, the benefits and application restrictions of AOPs were discussed, along with proposed research directions to provide new insights into the control of FQs pollutant via AOPs in practical applications.

Abstract
Sonochemistry shows remarkable potential in the synthesis or modification of new micro/nanomaterials, particularly the cross-linked emulsions for drug delivery. However, the trend of utilizing sonochemical emulsions for delivery of food-derived bioactive compounds has been just started. The extension of sonochemistry as a tool for engineering bioactive delivery systems will make the approach more universal and greatly increase its applications in the food industry. This review summarizes different types of biopolymeric cross-linked emulsions (CLEs) synthesized via sonochemical approach, including CLEs, surface-modified CLEs, cross-linked high internal phase emulsions, and some novel systems templated on CLEs. Special emphasis is directed toward the cross-linking mechanisms of biopolymers at the oil-water interfaces under acoustic cavitation and the physicochemical principles underlying sonochemical fabrication. We also highlight the advantages and challenges associated with the delivery performance of each system for bioactive compounds. The potential in delivering bioactives using sonochemical emulsions has not been fully reached. There are still a number of issues that need to be overcome, including low cross-linking degree of biopolymers, degradation of bioactives in sonochemical process, and unclear biological fate of encapsulated bioactive compounds. This review may guide future trends in exploring efficient sonochemical strategies and multifunctional delivery systems for food applications.

Abstract
The high energy phenomenon of cavitation bubble collapses has enabled numerous applications, including cleaning. In ultrasonic cleaning, cavitation intensity is typically lower than in other applications, such as sonochemistry and material processing. However, there has been an emerging application in intense cleaning of metal additively manufactured (AM) components. The presence of partially melted powders on AM surfaces is undesirable, contributing to high surface roughness and posing contamination risks during usage. We designed a high-intensity cavitation cleaning process that has significantly higher inertial cavitation intensity - i.e., erosion potential - than a conventional ultrasonic cleaning tank. Through acoustic signal characterisation, we showed that placing transducer sets on four sides of the tank could effectively focus and generate high-amplitude pressure waves directed towards the central region. Strong subharmonic signals indicate intensely inertial cavitation throughout the tank. Cavitation intensities were measured at various locations to understand the wave transmission characteristics and distribution patterns. Our results show that the cavitation intensity distribution is highly dependent on the height position. Finally, we demonstrated that the high intensity ultrasonic cleaning (HIUC) process could remove partially melted powders from an AM surface - which was not possible through conventional ultrasonic cleaning. HIUC could lead to higher cleaning efficiency and enhanced AM specimen cleanliness.

Abstract
Recently, environmental problems, such as global warming, have become more severe; thus, there is a requirement to implement sustainable development goals in materials processing. In this study, we investigated a low-cost and environmentally-friendly sonochemical process for the synthesis of metal nanoparticles with large specific surface areas and catalysis effects. Au2O3 hydrate and Ag2O were reduced to Au and Ag, respectively, at room temperature in a short time when irradiated with ultrasound in ethanol. Furthermore, when a mixed powder of Au2O3 hydrate and Ag2O was irradiated in ethanol, Au-Ag alloys were obtained in only 10 min. This fast and environmentally friendly alloying technique, known as sonochemical alloying, is promising for alloy syntheses.

Abstract
The current study aims to explain recent developments in the synthesis of Pb(II)-azido metal-organic coordination polymers. Coordination polymers are defined as hybrid materials encompassing metal-ion-based, organic linkers, vertices, and ligands, serving to link the vertices to 1D, 2D, or 3D periodic configurations. The coordination polymers have many applications and potential properties in many research fields, primarily dependent on particular host-guest interactions. Metal coordination polymers (CPs) and complexes have fascinating structural topologies. Therefore, they have found numerous applications in different areas over the past two decades. Azido-bridged complexes are inorganic coordination ligands with higher fascination that have been the subject of intense research because of their coordination adaptability and magnetic diversity. Several sonochemical methods have been developed to synthesize nanostructures. Researchers have recently been interested in using ultrasound in organic chemistry synthetics, since ultrasonic waves in liquids accelerate chemical reactions in heterogeneous and homogeneous systems. The sonochemical synthesis of lead-azide coordination compounds resulted from very fantastic morphologies, and some of these compounds are used as precursors for preparing nano lead oxide. The ultrasonic sonochemistry approach has been extensively applied in different research fields, such as medical imaging, biological cell disruption, thermoplastic welding, food processing, and waste treatment. CPs serve as appropriate precursors for preparing favorable materials at the nanoscale. Using these polymers as precursors is beneficial for preparing inorganic nanomaterials such as metal oxides.

Abstract
In this study Eu3+-doped yttrium fluorides were designed by ultrasound-assisted processes at different pH values (4.0-9.0). This novel strategy has enabled to obtain materials with intriguing morphologies and modulated crystal structures: α-KY3F10, δ-KY3F10·xH2O, and Y(OH)3-xFx. To date, the literature has primarily focused only on the α-phase of KY3F10. Yet, explaining the formation of the mostly uncharted δ-phase of KY3F10 remains a challenge. Thus, this paper offers the key to synthesizing both the α and the δ-phases of KY3F10 and also reports the first ultrasound-assisted process for the preparation of yttrium hydroxyfluorides. It is also unraveled the connection between the different pH-dependent reactions and the formation mechanisms of the compounds. In addition to this, the unique features of the Eu3+ ion have allowed to conduct a thorough study of the different materials and have endowed the compounds with photoluminescent properties. The results underscore a highly tunable optical response, with a wide gamut of color emissions (from orangish to red hues), lifetimes (from 7.9 ms to 1.1 ms) and quantum efficiencies (98-28%). The study unveils the importance of sonochemistry in obtaining luminescent fluorides with controlled crystal structures that can open up new avenues in the synthesis and design of inorganic materials.

Abstract
Fischer glycosylation is typically the chemical reaction of a monosaccharide and an alcohol in presence of an acidic catalyst to afford glycosides in pyranosidic and furanosidic forms. This reaction is still applied today for the synthesis of specialized glycosides, and optimization and modification of the method have continued since its discovery by Emil Fischer in the 1890s. This review presents advancements in Fischer glycosylation described in literature of the past 15 years and its implementation in modern chemical methods.

Abstract
The chemical industry is considered to be one of the largest consumers of energy in the manufacturing sector. As the cost of energy is rising rapidly, coupled with the increasingly stringent standards for the release of harmful chemicals and gases into the environment, more attention is now focused on developing energy efficient chemical processes that could significantly reduce both operational costs and greenhouse gas emissions. Alkene epoxidation is an important chemical process as the resultant epoxides are highly reactive compounds that are used as platform chemicals for the production of commercially important products for flavours, fragrances, paints and pharmaceuticals. A number of epoxidation methods have been developed over the past decade with the ultimate aim of minimising waste generation and energy consumption. In this review paper, some of the recent advances in epoxides synthesis using energy efficient processes are discussed. The epoxidation methods may provide sustainability in terms of environmental impact and energy consumption.

Abstract
Photo- and thermo-activated reactions are dominant in Additive Manufacturing (AM) processes for polymerization or melting/deposition of polymers. However, ultrasound activated sonochemical reactions present a unique way to generate hotspots in cavitation bubbles with extraordinary high temperature and pressure along with high heating and cooling rates which are out of reach for the current AM technologies. Here, we demonstrate 3D printing of structures using acoustic cavitation produced directly by focused ultrasound which creates sonochemical reactions in highly localized cavitation regions. Complex geometries with zero to varying porosities and 280 μm feature size are printed by our method, Direct Sound Printing (DSP), in a heat curing thermoset, Poly(dimethylsiloxane) that cannot be printed directly so far by any method. Sonochemiluminescnce, high speed imaging and process characterization experiments of DSP and potential applications such as remote distance printing are presented. Our method establishes an alternative route in AM using ultrasound as the energy source. Photo- and thermo-activated polymerization and melting processes are dominant in Additive Manufacturing (AM) while ultrasound activated sonochemical reactions have not been explored for AM so far. Here, the authors demonstrate 3D printing of structures using acoustic cavitation produced directly by focused ultrasound which creates sonochemical reactions in highly localized cavitation regions.

Abstract
Recently, the hydrodynamic cavitation (HC)-based pretreatment has shown high effectiveness in laboratories and even in industrial productions for conversion of lignocellulosic biomass (LCB) into value-added products. The pretreatment capability derives from the extraordinary conditions of pressures at ∼500 bar, local hotspots with ∼5000 K, and oxidation (hydroxyl radicals) created by HC at room conditions. To promote this emerging technology, the present review summarizes the recent advances in the HC-based pretreatment of LCB. The principle of HC including the sonochemical effect and hydrodynamic cavitation reactor is introduced. The effectiveness of HC on the delignification of LCB as well as subsequent fermentation, paper production, and other applications is evaluated. Several key operational factors (i.e., reaction environment, duration, and feedstock characteristics) in HC pretreatments are discussed. The enhancement mechanism of HC including physical and chemical effects is analyzed. Finally, the perspectives on future research on the HC-based pretreatment technology are highlighted.

Abstract
Chlorophenol is a widely used organic compound, and the environmental and health problems caused by it have being worsened in recent years. This study used 2,4,6-trichlorophenol (2,4,6-TCP) as the target pollutant, and employed ultrasound (US) enhanced zero-valent iron (Fe0)/EDTA/air system (FEA), namely US/FEA, to remove 2,4,6-TCP. The influence of single factor experimental conditions such as EDTA concentration, Fe0 dosage, US power, pH and pollutant concentration on the removal efficiency of 2,4,6-TCP was investigated, and the optimal reaction conditions were determined. The mechanism of reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced by US/FEA was explored. The degradation process and removal mechanism of 2,4,6-TCP in the US/FEA were discussed through the determination and analysis of intermediate products. The results showed that US could continuously activate and renew the Fe0 surface, accelerate its oxidation and corrosion process, and then continuously and stably produce sufficient amounts of Fe2+ and Fe3+. Ultrasonic cavitation effect could reduce the difficulty of O2 activation reaction, and promote the production of sufficient H2O2. The addition of EDTA made the system have a wide range of pH applications, and its performance under neutral and alkaline conditions was also superior. The ROS of US/FEA included ·OH, O2·- and Fe(IV), where Fe(IV) was the main contributor to the removal of 2,4,6-TCP. In addition, the degradation of 2,4,6-TCP had two processes including dechlorination and benzene ring opening. First, 2,4,6-TCP was dechlorinated and degraded into phenol. And then, phenol was degraded into small molecular acids by ring-opening, and finally it was mineralized into CO2 and H2O completely. US/FEA is a promising technology for high-efficiency degradation of organic matter and deep environmental purification.

Abstract
Reactive dyes, which are commonly used in the textile industry, are toxic and carcinogenic for the ecosystem and human health. The objective of this study was to investigate the removal of Reactive Blue 19 (RB19) from aqueous solution and synthetic textile industry wastewater using nanoscale zero-valent aluminum (nZVAl), ultrasonic bath (US-40 kHz), and combined US/nZVAl through the consideration of varying experimental parameters such as pH, nZVAl dosage, contact time, and initial RB19 dye concentration. The acidic pH value was an effective parameter to degrade RB19. As the nZVAl dosage and contact time increased, the degradation of RB19 dye from aqueous solution and synthetic textile industry wastewater increased using combined US/nZVAl process. A similar result was obtained for RB19 removal with combined US/nZVAl using 0.10 g dosage at 30 min, whereas it was obtained with nZVAl alone using 0.20 g dosage at 60 min. The sono-degradation process activated the nZVAl surface depending on US cavitation effect and shock waves, and increased RB19 dye uptake capacity with a shorter contact time and lower nZVAl dosage. Increasing the initial dye concentration decreased the removal efficiency for RB19. According to the obtained reusability results, nZVAl particles could be reused for four and two consecutive cycles of combined US/nZVAl and nZVAl alone, respectively.
