A method and apparatus for degassing the cavitation medium contained within a cavitation chamber is provided. The cavitation medium is pumped through the cavitation chamber through a pair of chamber inlets and an external conduit connecting the two inlets. The external conduit is coupled to a second chamber. The second chamber is a degassing chamber and is coupled to a vacuum pump. The cavitation medium can be continuously or intermittently circulated through the degassing system during chamber operation. The vacuum pump coupled to the degassing system can operate continuously or intermittently during system degassing. The cavitation medium circulation system can include a filter, preferably for removing contaminants that could disrupt the cavitation process.
