Energy Aspects of Acoustic Cavitation and Sonochemistry: Fundamentals and Engineering

by Process Engineering Hamdaoui Habil. (Editor), Kaouther Kerboua (Editor)

Overview

Energy Aspects of Acoustic Cavitation and Sonochemistry: Fundamentals and Engineering covers topics ranging from fundamental modeling to up-scaled experiments. The book relates acoustic cavitation and its intrinsic energy balance to macroscopic physical and chemical events that are analyzed from an energetic perspective. Outcomes are directly projected into practical applications and technological assessments covering energy consumption, thermal dissipation, and energy efficiency of a diverse set of applications in mixed phase synthesis, environmental remediation and materials chemistry. Special interest is dedicated to the sonochemical production of hydrogen and its energetic dimensions. Due to the sensitive energy balance that governs this process, this is seen as a "green process" for the production of future energy carriers. - Provides a concise and detailed description of energy conversion and exchange within the single acoustic cavitation bubble and bubble population, accompanying physical and chemical effects - Features a comprehensive approach that is supported by experiments and the modeling of energy concentration within the sonochemical reactor, jointly with energy dissipation and damping phenomenon - Gives a clear definition of energy efficiency metrics of industrial sono-processes and their application to the main emergent industrial fields harnessing acoustic cavitation and sonochemistry, notably for the production of hydrogen
