An easy and effective system and method for generating a nanobubble liquid suspension through thermal shock mixing, in which two streams of gas-saturated liquid come into contact at different temperatures, and nanobubble generation is accomplished due to the solubility difference of gases in the streams, are disclosed. The apparatus includes a pair of flow channels to allow two gas-saturated liquid streams to pass through it parallelly. Each flow channel is configured with a plurality of conducting metallic fins throughout its length and parallel to the flow of the gas-saturated liquid flowing through the flow channels. A thermoelectric Peltier-element module thermally heats or cools the metallic fins to generate a heated liquid stream and a cooled liquid stream, that mix together to form nanobubbles. This system is thermally closed, resulting in negligible heat loss into the environment and making the apparatus/system thermally efficient.
