Electrostatic precipitator is the most efficient device used for the removal of fly ash particles
from the flue gases produced by coal-fired boilers in power plants. However, the fractional …

In this paper, recent advances in the discrete-element method (DEM) for describing motion,
deposition, agglomeration or aggregation of a large number of adhesive spherical particles …

Discusses the CFD-DEM method of modeling which combines both the Discrete Element
Method and Computational Fluid Dynamics to simulate fluid-particle interactions. Deals with …

Providing up-to-date information on ultrasound technology and sonochemistry, this volume
focuses on green chemistry principles and methodologies that are being devised with a view …

Environmental protection and green science have an integral association and yet both terms
can mean different things to different people and both refer to methods of preventing or …

Publisher Summary Major mechanical effects of ultrasound are provided when the power is
sufficiently high to cause cavitation. Like any sound wave, ultrasound is propagated via a …

High amylose starch nanoparticles (HS-SNPs) were rapidly synthesised by high-speed
circumferential force of homogenisation (3000 and 15,000 rpm) during nanoprecipitation …

A novel preconditioning process using the combined effect of acoustic agglomeration and
vapor condensation for fine particles removal with high efficiency was presented. The effect …

Sonochemistry is generally associated with the use of power ultrasound in liquid media.
Under such circumstances acoustic cavitation can drive a range of reactions and processes …

This paper presents an experimental study of acoustic agglomeration of coal-fired fly ash
particles in travelling sound waves. The ranges of variation of the main physical parameters …
