Abstract
A process for evaluating a cleaning solution is described. The process includes: (a) subjecting a solution, including a solute and a solvent, to sonic energy to create a sonicated solution; (b) measuring UV absorption of the sonicated solution to produce a sample UV absorbance spectra; (c) obtaining a reference UV absorbance spectra; (d) scaling the reference UV absorbance spectra to the sample UV absorbance spectra at a lower range of the UV spectrum; (e) subtracting from the reference UV absorbance spectra the sample UV absorbance spectra to produce a differential UV spectra; and (f) evaluating at or near a peak of the sample UV absorbance spectra the differential UV absorbance spectra to determine whether the sonicated solution is activated.
