Theoretical and Experimental Sonochemistry Involving Inorganic Systems (PDF)

From the reviews:

"Theoretical and Experimental Sonochemistry Involving Inorganic Systems, edited by Prof. Pankaj, Agra, India and Prof. M. Ashokkumar, Melbourne, Australia and published by Springer, Dordrecht, Heidelberg, London, New York, consists of 15 chapters, which have been authored by renowned and active workers of five countries.

Theoretical and Experimental Sonochemistry Involving Inorganic Systems is a comprehensive and exhaustive description of sonochemical studies of aqueous systems starting from its origin to the present day studies including the synthesis of nano materials, degradation of pollutants, standardization of analytical techniques, behaviour of mono and multivalent metallic cations, green waste water management and the details of sonoluminescence in a single volume. The effects of ultrasound in combination with other techniques such as microwave, photocatalysis and catalysis are indeed attention-grabbing.

Interestingly, few chapters in the latter half of the book, including the last chapter, are aimed at

introducing this relatively new but a very compatible source of energy, at the University level teaching and research which is yet to be exploited and harnessed in almost all fields of chemistry.

[...] I do hope and wish that this book would attract the attention of students and researchers alike and benefit the world of chemistry and chemical technology in more than one way” (Dr. G.C. Saxena, Indian Council of Chemists, Agra, India, 2010).
