Patent ID: 11946278

Abstract:
A cuvette for treating and characterizing water via ultrasonic waves and optical measurements comprises at least one ultrasonic transducer for treating said water by introducing at least one ultrasonic pulse into the water. The at least one ultrasonic pulse either varies parameters of the water, and/or moves and repositions particles within the water. The cuvette further comprises a spectrometry device for measuring spectral components of light and at least one light source for irradiating the water with irradiation light. The at least one of the parameters of the water is determined via: (a) measuring the spectral components of light prior to treating the water with said at least one ultrasonic transducer, (b) treating the water with said at least one ultrasonic transducer, (c) remeasuring the spectral components of light to get the difference in said spectral components of light, and (d) determining the value of the at least one parameter of the water based on the difference in said spectral components of light.
