    Abstract: Micro-organisms are destroyed in a liquid medium such as water or sewage by a process comprising passing the unpurified liquid into an electrohydraulic chamber, charging a capacitor to a desired level of electric energy and initiating within the liquid at least one electro-hydraulic shock at a voltage less than 14 kilo-volts and a minimum energy of 50 joules per shock by discharging the capacitor. The capacitor may be discharged across a spark gap immersed in the liquid to be treated; alternatively, either a chamber divided by a diaphragm is used and the capacitor is dis-charged into liquid in one part of the chamber, the liquid to be purified being at the other side of the diaphragm, or the liquid to be treated is contained in a bottle or can which is immersed in the liquid being shocked. If more than one type of micro-organism is present, the initial shock may be at a sufficiently high energy level to kill the most resistant organism, and subsequent shocks may be at a lower energy level.
