Effects of ultrasound on suspended particles in municipal wastewater
Abstract
The objective of this research is to explore the fundamental characteristics of how particles in wastewater respond to ultrasound, with an aim to improve wastewater disinfection. Particles of a predetermined size fraction and concentration were treated with varying doses of ultrasound at 20.3 kHz. Ultrasonic power transfer to the fluid was measured using calorimetry or acoustical measurements. Image analysis particle counting was used to …
