The global move towards developing environmentally friendlier preparations of chemical compounds and organic or inorganic materials should be accompanied by a saving of resources through the optimization of reaction conditions and/or the introduction of new processing technologies. Over the years sonochemistry has been shown to be a green technology that can provide provide both a minimisation of energy use and efficient reaction control for industry.. Examples will be chosen from a number of fields which illustrate the wide ranging applicability of this technology in the chemical and processing industries and some practical applications which use high-power ultrasound will be reviewed.
