Advancement of Ultrasound Technology in the Circular Economy

This book describes the various applications of ultrasound in conversion of different wastes for the production of high-value products. Conversion of various waste, such as wastewater, lignocellulosic biomass, waste cooking oil, etc., to produce high-value products such as biodiesel, biofuel, biosurfactants, etc. In addition to the product formation, the book also highlights the treatment of wastewater and other waste for nutrient recovery, waste recycling, process intensification, etc. The book provides the fundamental knowledge of ultrasonication and its importance in process intensification, which could be expedient for scientists and engineers, young researchers, and postgraduate students working and interested in the application of ultrasonication in various processes.
