About this ebook
Ultrasound in Environmental Protection focuses on one of the more significant developments in the subject - environmental remediation - providing an overview on both the fundamentals and applications of ultrasound in environmental protection, incorporating recent research and state-of-the-art information on the scientific basis, modes of use, and engineering developments.
A broad spectrum of topics are covered: reactor design, sonochemical pollutant degradation, integrated unltrasonic/ biological treatment, ultrasound in disinfection, leaching by ultrasound, and ultrasonically enhanced removal of suspended solids.
Ultrasound is generated and applied at frequencies from 20 kHz to several MHz. The physio-chemical parameters of the sonicated media, reactor design, applied intensity, and duration of sonication, dramatically influence the effects that can be achieved.
It is hoped that this compilation will contribute to a better understanding and further development of sonochemistry as a clean technology not only for environmental remediation but also more generally.
The foundation of this compilation was formed during a workshop that was held at the Technical University of Hamburg-Harburg, Germany, in March 1999. This was the first workshop to be devoted to 'Ultrasound in Environmental Engineering' and brought together experience and knowledge from a broad spectrum of disciplines including chemistry, biology, engineering, equipment manufacturing, and plant design.

T J Mason
Tim Mason is Emeritus Professor of Chemistry and Director of the Sonochemistry Centre at the University of Coventry, UK. He graduated from Southampton University, UK in 1967 with a BSc in Chemistry and continued his career in the research field of physical organic chemistry with a PhD from the same university and two years as a post-doc at Amherst College in Massachusetts, USA. He began research into sonochemistry at Coventry University with his first paper on the subject published in 1980. He became the first president of the European Society of Sonochemistry when it was formed in 1991 until 2014 and became editor of Ultrasonics Sonochemistry from its first issue in 1994 until he retired as Editor in Chief in 2017. He has authored and edited 11 textbooks and the six-volume series “Advances in Sonochemistry. Since his retirement and appointment as emeritus professor at Coventry University, he has continued his research interests in a broad range of topics which include fundamental aspects of sonochemistry, reactor design and scale-up, environmental protection, food processing, ultrasonically assisted extraction (UAE), materials processing and therapeutic ultrasound. Currently his main research collaboration is with co-author Mircea Vinatoru through the ULTRA-MINT programme.
