Claim Text:
1. An electrolytic cell for the generation of a plasma field on an active surface of a plasma electrode in an electrolyte, the electrolytic cell comprising: a vessel containing a liquid electrolyte, a first cylindrical body immersed in the electrolyte, a plasma electrode (cathode) immersed in the electrolyte, a second coil electrode, which is shrouded with dielectric material (anode) immersed in the electrolyte spaced from the plasma electrode, a power supply, and a circuit extending from the plasma electrode and the second electrode to the power supply and electrically connecting the plasma electrode, the second electrode, and the power supply; the anode electrode being a toroidal body comprising an inner wall defining an opening extending through the body and comprising a first end, the first end is spatially concentric and perpendicular to the second electrode, at least a portion of the inner wall being disposed in contact with the electrolyte; the anode electrode being shrouded with an electrical insulator comprising an inner wall defining an opening through a first tubular body, at least a portion of the inner wall of the first tubular body being disposed in contact with the electrolyte; the plasma electrode being totally submerged in the electrolyte; the said at least a portion of the inner wall of the first tubular body being adjacent to the said at least a portion of the inner wall of the anode electrode wherein the said wall portions cooperatively define a flow path extending there through that is surrounded by said wall portions.
