A08 Investigation on acoustic cavitation-assisted HV pulse discharge method for wastewater treatment

抄録

Both acoustic cavitation and HV pulse discharge have been investigated widely on wastewater treatment in the past. However, when these techniques are applied singly, they efficiency remains low. In this study, a novel treatment method was proposed by combing these two techniques to achieve a synergetic effect. A lab scale system was designed and experimentally tested. Rhodamine B was chosen as an organic pollutant to identify the treatment efficiency of the proposed method. Results indicated that treatment efficiency is significantly higher compared to single ultrasound or pulse discharge, suggesting a promising way for wastewater treatment.
