Abstract :
The application of Pulsed electric field (PEF) is a method for liquid treatment in the food industry and for water decontamination. To process water and study this phenomenon, we have developed a pulsed high voltage generator. The parent project for this generator is to ascertain the benefits of nanosecond generators over other methods against E. coli and Legionella in water.
