Description In recent years, there has been a surge of interest in the plasma treatment of liquids, notably water, within the field of plasma physics. This treatment yields reactive oxidizing species, both with and without nitrogen (ROS, RONS). The discharge-liquid technologies have found diverse applications across various disciplines, including pollution remediation, biomedical research, and the food industry. Despite dedicated research spanning two decades, a significant challenge remains: the development of an efficient approach for treating large volumes of liquid. In our contribution, we introduce an innovative solution known as CaviPlasma. This novel method capitalizes on the synergistic combination of hydrodynamic cavitation and plasma generation within the cavitation vapor cloud. Our approach shows promising potential for overcoming the technological barriers associated with the large-scale treatment of liquids.
