<p>An apparatus (10) and method of use for dissociating materials include a power supply (SPS), high energy capacitor (3), high energy trigger device (5) and a probe (7, 25, 25', 42) and reactor (9, 20, 23, 23', 23'', 40) arrangement for treating both solid and medium/media materials (13). A near instantaneous discharge of the electrical charge stored in the capacitor (3) via the probe (7, 25, 25', 42) can be used to dissociate the material, either medium/media or solid, for a desired result. Hazardous materials can be treated to be rendered non-hazardous, rocks or other solid material can be treated for reduction in size, plant seeds can be treated to enhance plant growth surfaces of granular material can be scored or thermally polished and milk, juices and blood could be treated for sterilization.</p> |
