The results of studying the regularities of cavitation destruction of organic compounds in hospital wastewater are presented. It was found that under cavitation conditions, the effective reaction rate constant for the destruction of organic compounds increases by ten times compared to the action of oxygen itself. It is shown that the process of cavitation destruction of organic compounds can be described by a first-order kinetic equation. The efficiency of wastewater treatment with a high content of penicillin G sodium salt under cavitation conditions in the presence of oxygen is 70%, compared to 15% under the action of oxygen alone.
