SpringerBriefs in Molecular Science Ultrasound and Sonochemistry

Series editors Bruno G. Pollet, Faculty of Engineering, Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Trondheim, Norway Muthupandian Ashokkumar, School of Chemistry, University of Melbourne, Melbourne, VIC, Australia

SpringerBriefs in Molecular Science: Ultrasound and Sonochemistry is a series of concise briefs that present those interested in this broad and multidisciplinary field with the most recent advances in a broad array of topics. Each volume compiles information that has thus far been scattered in many different sources into a single, concise title, making each edition a useful reference for industry professionals, researchers, and graduate students, especially those starting in a new topic of research.

About the Series Editors Bruno G. Pollet is a full Professor of Renewable Energy at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) in Trondheim. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), an Executive Editor of Ultrasonics Soncohemistry and a Board of Directors’ member of the International Association of Hydrogen Energy (IAHE). He held Visiting Professorships at the University of Ulster, Professor Molkov’s HySAFER (UK) and at the University of Yamanashi, Professor Watanabe’s labs (Japan). His research covers a wide range of areas in Electrochemical Engineering, Electrochemical Energy Conversion and Sonoelectrochemistry (Power Ultrasound in Electrochemistry) from the development of novel materials, hydrogen and fuel cell to water treatment/ disinfection demonstrators & prototypes. He was a full Professor of Energy Materials and Systems at the University of the Western Cape (South Africa) and R&D Director of the National Hydrogen South Africa (HySA) Systems Competence Centre. He was also a Research Fellow and Lecturer in Chemical Engineering at The University of Birmingham (UK) as well as a co-founder and an Associate Director of The University of Birmingham Centre for Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Research. He has worked for Johnson Matthey Fuel Cells Ltd (UK) and other various industries worldwide as Technical Account Manager, Project Manager, Research Manager, R&D Director, Head of R&D and Chief Technology Officer. He was awarded a Diploma in Chemistry and Material Sciences from the Université Joseph Fourier (Grenoble, France), a B.Sc. (Hons) in Applied Chemistry from Coventry University (UK) and an M.Sc. in Analytical Chemistry from The University of Aberdeen (UK). He also gained his Ph.D. in Physical Chemistry in the field of Electrochemistry and Sonochemistry under the supervision of Profs. J. Phil Lorimer & Tim J. Mason at the Sonochemistry Centre of Excellence, Coventry University (UK). He undertook his PostDoc in Electrocatalysis at the Liverpool University Electrochemistry group led by Prof. David J. Schiffrin. Bruno has published many scientific publications, arti
