  • Solvents for Ultrasonic Cleaning
    Plating and Surface Finishing, 2020
    Co-Authors: Bogdan Niemczewski
    Abstract:

    The withdrawal of freons from Ultrasonic Cleaning in industry imposed by the Montreal Protocol and limitations for using chlorinated solvents, though not included in the Protocol but harmful to human health, have led to greater than expected difficulties in finding effective solvents. A substantial problem exists because all non-halogenated solvents are inflammable and thus are more or less fire hazardous. Presented here are the results of testing four high flash point solvents as to their applicability in Ultrasonic Cleaning. Three of them have acoustic properties sufficient for use in Ultrasonic Cleaning, but the fourth one proved to be unacceptable.

  • influence of concentration of substances used in Ultrasonic Cleaning in alkaline solutions on cavitation intensity
    Ultrasonics Sonochemistry, 2009
    Co-Authors: Bogdan Niemczewski
    Abstract:

    Abstract Cavitation intensity vs. temperature of aqueous solutions of three substances most frequently used in Ultrasonic Cleaning: sodium carbonate, metasilicate and phosphate were measured. Shapes of cavitation – temperature curves for 0–10% solutions during heating and cooling in the 20–70 °C temperature range were compared. Maximal cavitation intensity curves for these solutions at 60 °C (most frequently used temperature of Ultrasonic Cleaning in aqueous solutions), in identical conditions and at various ultrasound frequencies are presented as diagrams.

    Co-Authors: Bogdan Niemczewski
    Abstract:

    The intensity of cavitation versus temperature and the intensity of agitation of liquid caused by the pressure of Ultrasonic radiation have been compared for traditional chlorinated solvents and freons used in Ultrasonic Cleaning, and for 10 selected solvents offered by various companies as substitutes. Recommendations have been formulated as regards the possibility of using these solvents in industrial Ultrasonic Cleaning.

  • Ultrasonic Cleaning of polytetrafluoroethylene membrane fouled by natural organic matter
    Journal of Membrane Science, 2016
    Co-Authors: Chi Chuan Kan, Divine Angela D. Genuino, Kim Katrina P. Rivera, Mark Daniel G. De Luna
    Abstract:

    Chemical Cleaning of membranes fouled by natural organic matter (NOM) generates secondary pollution. In this study, the effect of Ultrasonic Cleaning of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) membrane fouled by pre-coagulated humic acid-bentonite mixture was investigated. Results show that chemical coagulation prior to microfiltration improved turbidity and TSS removals by 9.5% and 11.4%, respectively. Experimental data fitted to constant pressure filtration models determined the sequence of dominant fouling mechanism as follows: (i) membrane resistance-limited, (ii) pore blocking resistance-limited, and (iii) cake formation resistance-limited. Relative membrane permeability of 53 and flux recovery of 45% were achieved when continuous Ultrasonic Cleaning was done at a 2.0. cm probe distance, 25. min total Cleaning time, 15. mg/L coagulant dose, and 15. W Ultrasonic power. Ultrasonic Cleaning was found to be more effective than hydraulic Cleaning in terms of flux recovery. Compared to chemical Cleaning, it is a competitive and safer alternative in mitigating NOM-induced fouling.

  • Chemical support of cavitation intensity in Ultrasonic Cleaning
    Transactions of The Institute of Metal Finishing, 2020
    Co-Authors: B. Niemczewski, Z. Kołodziejczyk
    Abstract:

    In processes of Ultrasonic Cleaning in aqueous alkaline solutions, due to the intensity of the chemical reactions occurring during Cleaning, it is advisable to use high temperatures. But the intensity of cavitation, being the main causative agent of Cleaning in these liquids, reduces with increasing temperature. Moreover, a great reduction in cavitation intensity is observed when a liquid is heated compared with its intensity when the same liquid is cooling. This phenomenon disturbs the process of Cleaning when the temperature is kept constant. It is also known that a high cavitation intensity in water may be sustained by adding a substance that fixes the oxygen dissolved in the water. In the present work, a method of stabilising cavitation intensity is proposed by adding such a substance, i.e. sodium sulphite, to aqueous alkaline solutions used in Ultrasonic Cleaning.

  • On using mixtures of liquids for Ultrasonic Cleaning
    Transactions of The Institute of Metal Finishing, 2020
    Co-Authors: B. Niemczewski
    Abstract:

    The effects of mixing various liquids on the acoustic properties of the resultant mixtures are discussed. These properties are Ultrasonic radiation pressure that induces the agitation of liquids in Ultrasonic cleaners and Ultrasonic cavitation. Both these physical phenomena are direct causative agents of Ultrasonic Cleaning.

  • Intensity of hydrodynamic movements induced by ultrasounds in Ultrasonic Cleaning in water solutions
    Transactions of The Institute of Metal Finishing, 2020
    Co-Authors: B. Niemczewski
    Abstract:

    The main causative agent of Ultrasonic Cleaning is cavitation. A helpful factor is liquid movement induced by ultrasound, but in some organic solvents, the intensity of this movement is so high that its significance for the process of Cleaning is equal to and sometimes even higher than the significance of cavitation. In the present work, the intensity of hydrodynamic movement induced by ultrasound in water was assessed and compared with those in selected organic solvents used in Ultrasonic Cleaning.

  • Influence of acid concentration on cavitation intensity in Ultrasonic Cleaning in aqueous solutions of acids
    Transactions of The Institute of Metal Finishing, 2020
    Co-Authors: B. Niemczewski
    Abstract:

    It is known from the practice of Ultrasonic Cleaning that in most cases the increase in concentration of an alkaline solution used for Ultrasonic Cleaning leads to lower cavitation intensity, a primary causative agent of efficient Ultrasonic Cleaning. On the other hand, there is no information as regards cavitation intensity trends with increasing concentration of acid solutions. In order to check the influence of concentration (from 1 to 7% w/w) on cavitation intensity, the maximum cavitation of three acids (orthophosphoric, tartaric and citric) was measured under the same conditions at 50 and 60°C in Ultrasonic cleaners operating at 34, 35·5, 36·7, 40 and 44 kHz. The resulting data did not confirm, unlike most alkaline Cleaning solutions, that increasing the concentration of acid solutions above 3% w/w, the concentration most frequently used, reduced cavitation intensity. An exception was the operation of tartaric acid at 40 kHz.

  • dependence of cavitation intensity on ultrasound frequency in Ultrasonic Cleaning processes in alkaline solutions
    Transactions of The Institute of Metal Finishing, 2008
    Co-Authors: B. Niemczewski
    Abstract:

    AbstractThe relationship of cavitation intensity with temperature in the range from 20 to 70°C for three alkaline substances most frequently used in Ultrasonic Cleaning was measured in two identical medium size cleaners, the only difference being the frequency of emitted ultrasounds. Peak values of cavitation intensities of solutions at 60°C (most frequent temperature of Ultrasonic Cleaning) were compared. Electrical power consumption values at this temperature were also compared.
