Abstract
Ultrasound (US) was studied as an alternative method to remediate contaminated sediments. Different ultrasonic systems were designed and characterized to fundamentally understand ultrasonic effects in porous sediment and to strategically improve the ultrasonic remediation process. These include a flow-through packed-media column coupled with US, the combination of US and persulfate (PS), and a scaled-up design of a multi-stepped horn.
