Cavitation is one of the major effects of UAL, associated with a variety of phenomena and
physical aspects such as chemical, mechanical, and thermal. Cavitation, categorized as an …

Most ultrasound-based processes root in empirical approaches. Because nearly all
advances have been conducted in aqueous systems, there exists a paucity of information on …

In this work, mixtures of increasing viscosity (from 0.9 to≈ 720 mPas) are sonicated directly
using an ultrasonic horn at 30 kHz to investigate the effect of viscosity on the ultrasound field …

As an advanced oxidation process, high-power ultrasound produces free radicals in
aqueous solution through acoustic cavitation. Whereas radical production inside the …

Acoustic cavitation bubbles drive chemical processes through their dynamic lifecycle in
liquids. These bubbles are abundant within sonoreactors, where their behavior becomes …

Among the various metals in crude oils, nickel (Ni) and vanadium (V) exist as oil-soluble
organic compounds, making them extremely difficult to remove. The presence of these …

In this work, novel numerical models were developed and validated to offer new strategies in
modelling sonochemical reactors. More specifically, in our original approach the non-linear …

A cavitation bubble undergoing multi-cycle oscillation with heat and mass transfer is crucial
to ships and pumps due to its potential damage. To better understand the mechanism of the …

Forced fluid flow, when properly aligned with the geometry of a 20 kHz horn-type
sonoreactor, can increase its sonochemical efficiency (SE). We designed a flow-through …

The sulfurous compounds in natural gas liquids should be reduced to the extent of satisfying
the standard recipes due to corrosion, poisoning of catalysts in downstream processes …
