The present paper reports a numerical investigation of the feasibility of a hybrid concept associating the 1-Butyl-3-methylimidazolium Acetate [C4mim][CH3COO] to sonication, in terms of cavitation formation and generated extreme conditions allowing cellulose decomposition in the second reactivity site. The results of the proposed model revealed an acoustic power threshold of 1.8 atm, in order to expect a transient cavitation in the ionic liquid, leading to harsh conditions of 1559.8 K and 49 bar within the bulk volume of the acoustic cavitation bubble. The spatial and temporal variation of the temperature was simulated within the bulk volume of the bubble as well as in the thermal boundary layer jointly with the chemical kinetics. The first stage of the polymerization reduction was clearly attained and demonstrated through the decomposition rate of cellulose and the molar rate of emergence of anhydrocellulose, reaching the respective orders of magnitude of 1.71 × 104 mol/m3â
s and 7.91 × 104 mol/m3â
s.
