This work provides a critical review of the removal efficiencies and pseudo-1st-order degradation rates in only-PS, only-US, and US/PS processes to clarify the ultrasonic activation mechanism in US/PS systems. Experimental data from 53 cases across 15 studies were analyzed, and synergistic effects were evaluated. In only-PS processes, significant activation below 40°C was rarely observed, with few exceptions. Although several researchers reported high synergistic effects in US/PS processes, most cases showed low or negligible synergistic effects. High synergistic effects were attributable to incomplete cooling systems, low pollutant concentrations, and high PS/pollutant ratios. Therefore, the ability of acoustic cavitation to activate PS without thermal activation induced by US attenuation below 40°C remains debatable.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":292,"journal":{"name":"Current Opinion in Chemical Engineering","volume":"48 ","pages":"Article 101136"},"PeriodicalIF":8.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143865031","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although this technology shows promising results in the bioprocess of microalgae biomass, the leap to commercialization is fraught with the cost-intensive process.

The use of ultrasound in electrochemical processes such as water electrolysis can lead to an energy efficiency enhancement in the range of 2–25% in low-temperature water electrolysers (LT-WE). However, this improvement greatly depends upon several factors such as the cell reactor design, the ultrasonic frequency, the transmitted acoustic power, and the distance between the ultrasonic transducer and the electrode. The main objectives of this review are to highlight recent advancements in using power ultrasound in water electrolysis and shed some light on possible commercial development by addressing the fundamental obstacles that lie in this technology. Several research works have highlighted that the efficiency improvement in ultrasound-aided water electrolysis is principally due to the gas bubble removal from the electrode surface, which ultimately reduces the ohmic resistance of the electrolytic cell. However, even with the observed higher efficiencies from the <em>sonoelectrolysers</em> for hydrogen production in R&D labs, this technology still faces challenges for further development due to the efficiency in competing with commercial LT-WEs, which are already in the range of 60–70%. If <em>sonoelectrolysers</em> are to succeed for commercial development and large-scale industrial applications, they would need to achieve overall efficiency much higher than current commercial LT-WEs.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":292,"journal":{"name":"Current Opinion in Chemical Engineering","volume":"48 ","pages":"Article 101122"},"PeriodicalIF":8.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143739240","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
