Single-bubble sonoluminescence occurs when an acoustically trapped and periodically
driven gas bubble collapses so strongly that the energy focusing at collapse leads to light …

Power ultrasound refers to the section of the sound spectrum from 20 kHz through to around
1MHz. The basis of many applications of ultrasound in this frequency range is acoustic …

Human ingestion of per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from contaminated food and
water is linked to the development of several cancers, birth defects and other illnesses. The …

Bubbles transport methane (CH4) released from the sea bed to the surface while
exchanging gas with the surrounding aqueous environment. The fraction of CH4 released at …

Sonochemistry refers to ultrasound-initiated chemical processes in liquids. The interaction
between bubbles and sound energy in liquids results in acoustic cavitation. This review …

The sonochemical degradation kinetics of the aqueous perfluorochemicals (PFCs)
perfluorobutanoate (PFBA), perfluorobutanesulfonate (PFBS), perfluorohexanoate (PFHA) …

Ultrasound degrades “legacy” per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) via thermolysis at
the interface of cavitation bubbles. However, compared to “legacy” PFAS, polyfluoroalkyl …

Acoustic cavitation driven by ultrasonic irradiation decomposes and mineralizes the
recalcitrant perfluorinated surfactants perfluorooctanesulfonate (PFOS) and …

This work demonstrates the potential of sonochemistry to become a most valuable tool for
nanotechnology if the underlying complex processes are understood and controlled. It is …

The degradation of paracetamol, a widely found emerging pharmaceutical contaminant, was
investigated under a wide range of single-frequency and dual-frequency ultrasonic …
