  • Patent number: 9579614
    Abstract: In a method and to a device for treating a compound, such as a chemical and/or organic and/or microorganism compound, which is carried by a liquid, the liquid is driven axially through an axial inlet (21) into a central inlet portion of a radial cavitation chamber (18) having a peripheral outlet (30), such that the liquid is diverted into the central inlet portion and flows into the radial chamber in various radial directions towards the peripheral outlet; and the liquid flow conditions between the inlet and the peripheral outlet of the radial chamber are capable of generating cavitation bubbles or pockets (31) and subsequently causing the collapse or implosion of the bubbles or pockets in order to treat the compound at least partially.

  • Publication number: 20100247374
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device for making a liquid safe, that comprises a sterilizer including an ultraviolet lamp, and a sensor for measuring the ultraviolet radiation and connected to an electronic board. An actuator is connected to the electronic board driving the opening of an electrovalve in order to dispense or stop dispensing the liquid, said electrovalve being provided upstream from the sterilizer relative to the liquid flow direction. The electronic board controls the opening of the electrovalve when the sensor measures an ultraviolet amount higher than a predetermined threshold for a given amount of liquid. The device is further fitted with a flow rate adjustment means adapted to the predetermined threshold. The invention also relates to a method for implementing said device.
