Abstract

This work proposed a novel double-bath-type sonoreactor to demonstrate the possibility of applying ultrasound power for simultaneous production of gaseous fuels with degradation of Rhodamine B (RhB). The developed double-bath-type sonoreactor allows concentrating the energy of the ultrasonic waves to a limited region and, consequently allows the acoustic intensity in there to be increased approximately 30-fold compared to that can be created in a normal ultrasonic bath at the same applied power. The effect of acoustic intensity, temperature of water bath, static and bubbling argon atmosphere, initial RhB concentration, and dissolved gases on the sonochemical activity both in terms of RhB degradation and gaseous fuel productions were fully investigated. The possible pathways for the simultaneous production of gaseous fuels with degradation of RhB were elucidated. Sonochemical degradation of RhB was successfully analysed by Langmuir-Hinshelwood-type kinetics.
