Abstract

In this paper, the effect of the irradiation of the median-frequency of ultrasonic wave on the aqueous solution have been investigated. In addition, the decomposition ability of radical species was observed using phytoncide oil of 0.1 wt %. By observing the degree of decomposition while maintaining magnetic stirring, the unirradiated aqueous solution maintained turbid condition and the particle size of the oil was the same as the initial size. On the other hand, the irradiated aqueous solution presented that the transparency degree became good after 3 days and became to the same as the original purified water after one week. The particle size of the after 3 days was about 0.1 to $0.5{\mu}m$. From these results it could be demonstrated that when a medium frequency (about 400 kHz) is applied to the aqueous solution, decomposition ability of radical species are formed and the medium frequency irradiation system can be possible to purify the turbid aqueous solution.
