ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for purifying confined liquids and slurries by means of a spark discharge wherein the inner surface of the treatment vessel is designed to include a reflector section adjacent to a pair of electrodes and a concentrating section for intensifying the shock wave generated by the discharge between the electrodes. An external power source is coupled through a pulse forming network to the electrodes. The network is impedance matched to the impedance of the plasma arc generated between the electrodes to provide a high power pulse to the electrodes. The establishment of the plasma produces an extremely high pressure shock wave, u.v. radiation fringing on X-ray and electrohydraulic pressurization to alter the characteristics of the liquid therein.
