20.500.12556/RUL-114098 Effects of cavitation on different microorganisms the current understanding of the mechanisms taking place behind the phenomenon : a review and proposals for further research A sudden decrease in pressure triggers the formation of vapour and gas bubbles inside a liquid medium (also called cavitation). This leads to many (key) engineering problems: material loss, noise, and vibration of hydraulic machinery. On the other hand, cavitation is a potentially useful phenomenon: the extreme conditions are increasingly used for a wide variety of applications such as surface cleaning, enhanced chemistry, and wastewater treatment (bacteria eradication and virus inactivation). Despite this significant progress, a large gap persists between the understanding of the mechanisms that contribute to the effects of cavitation and its application. Although engineers are already commercializing devices that employ cavitation, we are still not able to answer the fundamental question: What precisely are the mechanisms how bubbles can clean, disinfect, kill bacteria and enhance chemical activity? The present paper is a thorough review of the recent (from 2005 onward) work done in the fields of cavitation-assisted microorganismʼs destruction and aims to serve as a foundation to build on in the next years. cavitation microorganisms destruction mechanisms reviews kavitacija mikroorganizmi mehanizmi razgradnja true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Članek v reviji 2020-02-14 12:11:52 2020-02-14 12:11:57 2022-08-26 03:49:06 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2019 0 0 Str. 147-165 Vol. 57 Oct. 2019 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 532.528(045) 1350-4177 10.1016/j.ultsonch.2019.05.009 16633627 RAZ_Zupanc_Mojca_2019.pdf RAZ_Zupanc_Mojca_2019.pdf 1 40CD86DBBA21C1ECE36A4BC981794813 bb4f397b6c26123955ac9d86bb31b208cb3022c11e25028224f003c574c5c940 2e49af03-a1b8-11eb-a523-00155dcfd717 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=126222 RAZ_Zupanc_Mojca_2019.docx RAZ_Zupanc_Mojca_2019.docx 1 18550EF9E11A6BD13A080FF7B085B125 3c47279be01f8ba3a8cb4b21a0ef5a9d6dcdb022c96a46dbfeb2b2e0bbaf90a8 e318b6da-a1bb-11eb-a523-00155dcfd717 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=142230 https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1350417719302305 0 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=126221 Fakulteta za strojništvo Biotehniška fakulteta 0 0 0
