Abstract:
1. A method of treating a fluid, comprising: positioning a first vortex nozzle in a housing; positioning a second vortex nozzle in the housing in opposed relationship to the first vortex nozzle; inletting a first fluid flow into a cavity defined by the housing and surrounding the first vortex nozzle; inletting fluid from the first fluid flow into the first vortex nozzle to create a first rotating fluid flow; inletting a second fluid flow into a cavity defined by the housing and surrounding the second vortex nozzle; inletting fluid from the second fluid flow into the second vortex nozzle to create a second rotating fluid flow; and impinging the first rotating fluid flow with the second rotating fluid flow in a collision chamber.
