Power Ultrasound in Electrochemistry : From Versatile Laboratory Tool to Engineering Solution.
The use of power ultrasound to promote industrial electrochemical processes, or sonoelectrochemistry, was first discovered over 70 years ago, but recently there has been a revived interest in this field. Sonoelectrochemistry is a technology that is safe, cost-effective, environmentally friendly and...
