“…In the last decade, ultrasound has gained momentum in relation with micro-or milli-structured devices for the use in chemical processes (Fernandez Rivas et al, 2012;Fernandez Rivas and Kuhn, 2016). This interest originates from its ability of being a non-contact source to activate or initiate physical (Cravotto and Cintas, 2012Katou et al, 2005;Linares et al, 1987;Okadap et al, 1972;Suslick et al, 1990) or chemical effects (Cravotto and Cintas, 2006; Leonelli and Mason, 2010;Mason, 2000;Suslick et al, 1990). These effects are a result of the cavitation induced by the ultrasound in the liquid medium and are documented to contribute to many factors such as improved mass transfer characteristics (Ahmedomer et al, 2008;Monnier et al, 2000Monnier et al, , 1999Okadap et al, 1972).…”
