摘要
The sonochemical efficiency of a cylindrical sonochemical reactor has been investigated as a function of frequency and liquid height. The irradiation frequencies were 45, 129, 231 and 490 kHz. The liquid height was varied from 10 to 700 mm. The sonochemical efficiency of the cylindrical reactor was evaluated by potassium iodide (KI) dosimetry and calorimetry. In our study, the sonochemical efficiency depended on the frequency and liquid height; further, the plots of sonochemical efficiency against liquid height exhibit one or two peaks for each frequency. The sonochemical efficiency up to the first peak increased monotonically with the logarithm of the frequency, and the liquid height for the first peak was inversely proportional to the frequency. From these results, the optimum frequency for a sonochemical reactor can be determined if the liquid height is specified for scale-up of the sonochemical reactor. (c) 2007 Elsevier B.V.
