Abstract

The assessment and control of energy efficiency of the sonochemical and ultrasound assisted processes requires a solid understanding of the chain of energy conversion at the different point of the studied device. The present chapter invokes the various technologies of high-power ultrasound systems and decorticates the ultrasound devices into power drivers, ultrasonic transducers, and ultrasound receiver system with its specific configuration and geometry. These different components are presented from a technological and design point of view, and are discussed theoretically in terms of energy conversion efficiency and experimental techniques employed for its measurement. Finally, the chapter underlines the major requitements for the scaling up of the sonochemical and ultrasound assisted processes, for batch and continuous flow operations, with respect to the decent energy conversion efficiency.
