continuous exposure to high-energy ultrasonic waves depolymerises macromolecules in solutions and produces a permanent reduction in viscosity. different factors affect the efficiency of this ultrasonic depolymerisation. in this work ultrasonic degradation of one commercially important hydrogel based on acrylic acid and acrylamide was carried out in aqueous solution at room temperature (25oc). a...

results the results of this study showed that the release of soluble chemical oxygen demand (scod) in the supernatant and srf were in the range of 127.9-831 mg/l and 12.48-36.55 m/kg at 10 to 120 min ultrasonic contact time, respectively. in addition, ts and vs decreased from 57.98 and 56.31 to 52.69 and 49.87 mg/l, respectively. despite the significant reduction in the solids, there was no con...

a new method for the synthesis of nano zero-valent iron (nzvi) was developed in the present study.ultrasonic waves, as a novel method, were used to synthesize the nanoparticles. the morphologyand surface compositions of the particles were characterized by using fesem, xrd, bet, andparticle size analyzer. the synthesized nanoparticles were then utilized as a fenton-like catalyst todegrade of hyd...

background: bisphenol-a is categorized as a toxic and refractory organic matter. ultrasonic process considered as an effective method for degradation of refractory organic matters in the environment which is achieved by the production of fine bubbles through cavitation process. this study is conducted for assessment of the toxicity of effluents containing bisphenol-a which was treated by ultras...

In this work, the degradation of Basic Red 29 (BR29), an azo dye, was investigated using a high-frequency ultrasonic reactor (300 kHz). The influence of several parameters such as initial substrate concentration (5–200 mg L−1) , pH (3–10.1), ultrasonic power (20–80 W), and nature of the dissolved gas (Ar, air, and N2) on the degradation of BR29 was assessed. Additionally, the impact of natural ...

Power ultrasound (US) could potentially be used in the food industry in the future. However, the extent of anthocyanin degradation by US requires investigation. Cyanidin-3-glucoside (Cy-3-glu) obtained from blueberry extracts was used as research material to investigate the effect of power ultrasound on food processing of anthocyanin-rich raw materials. The effects of ultrasonic waves on the st...

conclusions the present research demonstrated that the ultrasonic (us) process can be utilized as an effective and simple method for treatment of mg dye in an aqueous solution. moreover, the eeo is directly proportional to the mg concentration and power density and inversely proportional to temperature and mechanical agitation, which can be predicted by the obtained empirical kinetics model. co...
