An apparatus for applying electromagnetic energy to a dielectric fluid includes a chamber to contain the dielectric fluid. At least three parallel or coaxial electrode plates are arranged within the chamber to apply substantially equal electromagnetic energy per unit volume of the dielectric fluid between neighboring ones of the at least three electrode plates. Electrical conductors are electrically connected to electrode plates to apply a radio frequency electric field between neighboring ones of the at least three electrode plates. In one embodiment the electrode are connected in series and in another embodiment the electrodes are connected in parallel.

RF heating of a dielectric fluid

An apparatus and method for comminution of ore material includes a radio frequency multi-input, multimode processing resonant cavity arranged for radio frequency electromagnetic irradiation of a stream of ore material passing therethrough. A multi-input measurement resonant cavity, located upstream of the processing resonant cavity may be provided to determine an impedance of ore material to be irradiated in the processing resonant cavity. The radio frequency electrical field generated in the processing resonant cavity is matched to the determined impedance.
