Boosting energy efficiency and selectivity of glucose oxidation toward glucuronic acid in high-frequency ultrasound using multicavity CuO catalytic cavitation agents by Xie, Z, Mahendran, V, Jonnalagadda, US, Fan, Q, Su, X, Fischer, AF, Tan, M, Tao, L, Jérôme, F, Kwan, JJ, Valange, S, Choksi, TS, Amaniampong, PN, Liu, W

“…The present study demonstrates that by appropriately controlling the acoustic parameters (e.g. duty cycle, peak negative pressure and irradiation time) and reaction conditions (e.g. gas atmosphere and the addition of catalytic cavitation agent), it is possible to steer the selectivity of sono-oxidation of glucose towards glucuronic acid, the most value-added product, whilst minimizing the energy input to drive the sonochemical oxidation reaction.…”

Scour below a non-full flowing rectangular culvert outlet by Tan, Bei'er.

“…The results showed that the Densimetric Froude Number, Fo is a dominant parameter and its effect shows that whenever Fo increases, all parameters associated with scour hole geometry such as maximum depth of scour, dse, maximum scour length, Lse maximum width of scour, Wse and volume of scour hole, Vse increases at a very steep rate. The study proposed a set of general equations to predict the equilibrium scour hole geometries below a non-full flowing rectangular culvert outlet.…”
