Coating of Ti0 with TiO2 nanocrystalline shell reduces sonocatalytic activity. Pristine TiO2 anatase nanoparticles do not show a sonocatalytic activity in studied system. Suggested mechanism of EDTA sonocatalytic degradation involves two reaction pathways (i) sonochemical oxidation of EDTA by OH/HO2 radicals in solution and (ii) EDTA oxidation at the surface of Ti0 NPs in the presence of oxygen activated by cavitation event. Ultrasonic activation most probably occurs due to the local heating of Ti0/O2 species at cavitation bubble/solu
