Controlling Cavitation for the Activation of Small Molecules

CORDIS · observation · Publication date unknown

roject is to systematically progress towards deep understanding of cavitation bubbles generation through in-situ observation approaches, engineering of multifunctional catalytic cavitation agents and machine learning. This will exert better control on the formation, uniformity and collapse location of cavitation bubbles thereby significantly reducing acoustic energy requirement for inertial cavitation. I will synthesize multifunctional transition metal oxides catalytic cavitation agents, investigate and optimize their structure/properties relationships in response to acoustic cavitation. This project offers a unique integration of approaches, competences and resources in material science (synthesis of CCAs), physics (modelling) and chemistry (activation of small molecules). The iterative project focus on the most fundamental understanding of the physical mechanisms, will allow for substantial progresses into the complex phenomenon of sonochemistry and sonocatalysis. sonochemistry, acoustic cavitation, heterogeneous nucleation, radicals
