Advanced rotational hydrodynamic cavitation system for the irreversible removal of bacteria, pathogens, viruses, and chemical bonds

A hydrodynamic cavitation system, comprising:

• a first stator comprising a fluid inlet on an external side and a plurality of front indentations on an internal side;
• a second stator coupled to the first stator, the second stator formed from a plurality of ring segments, each ring segment comprising a plurality of center stator indentations on an inner surface;
• a third stator coupled to the second stator, the third stator comprising a plurality of third stator indentations on an internal side, and a fluid outlet;
• a rotor rotatably positioned within the second stator, the rotor comprising a plurality of front side rotor indentations, a plurality of outer diameter rotor indentations, and a plurality of rear side rotor indentations, wherein:
• i) the plurality of front side rotor indentations are aligned, respectively, with the front indentations of the first stator to form a plurality of first cavitation sites,
• ii) the plurality of outer rotor indentations are aligned, respectively, with the center stator indentations of the second stator to form a plurality of second cavitation sites, and
• iii) the plurality of rear side rotor indentations are aligned, respectively, with the plurality of front side rotor indentations to form a plurality of third cavitation sites;
• a driveshaft passing through a bearing housing, through the third stator, through the rotor, and into a nose cone coupled to the rotor, wherein rotation of the driveshaft rotates the rotor within the second stator;
• a plurality of dowel pins each extending from the third stator, through the second stator, and into the first stator;
• and
• a center cover circumscribing the second stator, the center cover interposed between the first stator and third stator.
