AB  - A microbubble generator with a cylindrical hollow ultrasonic horn (HUSH), gas 
      flow path, and an orifice inside it can produce high ultrasonic pressure around 
      the generated microbubbles. We used this microbubble generator with a HUSH as a 
      sonochemical reactor for the degradation of indigo carmine and evaluated the 
      sonochemical reaction by simply inserting the horn end into a liquid. The 
      experimental results revealed that the ultrasonic irradiation around 
      ultrasonically generated microbubbles effectively degraded indigo carmine in 
      water. In addition, degradation experiments performed by varying the ultrasonic 
      power and gas flow rates indicated that a continuous gas supply and ultrasonic 
      pressure were required for generating the microbubbles, without the generation of 
      millimeter-scale bubbles, to enhance the sonochemical reaction in water.
