The present invention is a method and apparatus for treating water and other liquids by removing minerals in solution and entrained gases. The entrained gases are forced into the atmosphere, while the minerals are returned to agglomerated solids for ease in removal using settling or filtration. The opposed vortex nozzle unit of the present invention collides a pair of fluid streams in a manner that the bonds holding the gases and minerals in the water are broken, thus, allowing the gases to escape and the minerals to agglomerate. The vortex nozzle tubes of the present invention are provided with slots which remove a small portion of the fluid streams as they flow through the nozzle tubes. The removed water is returned at a location beyond the impingement point of the two streams in order to enhance the removal of gases and agglomeration of minerals in solution.
