Claim:
1. Device for generating hydrogen peroxide, the device comprising: a housing having inner walls containing an inlet for an air-liquid or a vapor and separate outlets for H first and second electrodes positioned within the housing so as to create a space within which the air-liquid or the vapor is able to flow, and a high AC voltage supply connected to the first and second electrode configured to generate between the electrodes a corona discharge having a straight segment; wherein: a hollow centrifugal fan rotor is mounted inside the housing and is operatively coupled to a motor for rotating about an axis; an open end of the hollow rotor faces the inlet so that incoming air-liquid or vapor flows into the hollow rotor; a corona discharge zone is formed between an inner wall of the rotor and an outer wall of the second electrode which is at least partially disposed within a cavity of the rotor; the air-liquid or vapor passing through the corona discharge zone is repelled radially by the rotor to the inner walls of the housing; and the rotor changes a direction of the air-liquid or vapor flow within the straight segment of the corona discharge.
