Claims20
A method of removing contaminants from liquid comprising:
- providing a liquid including contaminants into a containment;
- applying acoustic pressure shock waves to the liquid with a shock wave applicator comprising a reflector guiding the liquid to push contaminants downward in a direction of gravity;
- and
- collecting decontaminated liquid from the containment.
1 more element
A system for removing contaminants from liquid comprising:
- a liquid containment;
- one or more acoustic pressure shock wave applicators including a reflector guiding the liquid, positioned to apply shock waves into the containment in a direction of gravity;
- and
- at least one of a channel and an outlet coupled to the containment for receiving decontaminated liquid.
