Abstract:
A plasma generator (1) comprises: a liquid containing part (3) which contains a liquid (6) including water; a gas containing part (4) which contains a gas; and a partition wall part (5) that separates the liquid containing part and the gas containing part from each other and is provided with a gas passage (5a) through which the gas in the gas containing part is led to the liquid containing part. The plasma generator (1) is also provided with a first electrode (10) that is arranged in the gas containing part and a second electrode (11) that is arranged so as to be in contact with the liquid in the liquid containing part. The plasma generator (1) is further provided with: a gas supply unit (9) which supplies the gas to the gas containing part; a plasma power supply unit (13); and a liquid inflow prevention device (a control unit (14)) which prevents the liquid from flowing into the gas containing part from the liquid containing part through the gas passage.
Abstract:
An object of the present invention is to provide a downsized ozone generation unit including control means having plurality of means for outputting an ozone gas, and the ozone generation unit. In the present invention, a gas pipe integrated block (30) has a plurality of internal pipe paths (R30a to R30f). The plurality of internal pipe paths are connected to an ozone generator (1), control means (an MFC (3), a gas filter (51), and an APC (4)), a raw gas supply port (14), an ozone gas output port (15), and cooling water inlet/outlet ports (13A, 13B), to thereby form a unit in which a raw gas input pipe path and an ozone gas output pipe path are integrated. The raw gas input pipe path extends from the raw gas supply port through the APC to the ozone gas generator. The ozone gas output pipe path extends from the ozone generator through the gas filter, the ozone concentration meter 5, and the MFC 3, to the ozone gas output port.
Abstract:
An ozone generator cartridge 60 suitable for a sterilization, decontamination and/or sanitation device. The cartridge comprises a sealable housing 60 for providing a corona discharge, the housing containing at least one power supply unit 64 and at least one inlet 65 for connection to an oxygen or air supply, the cartridge including at least part of at least one ozone conversion cell 63 attached to and extending from an external surface of a wall of the sealed housing, the conversion cell extending into a delivery conduit 52 of a decontamination device that leads to at least one discharge outlet 16.
Abstract:
Provided is a disposable capsule. The capsule provided with a safety pressure valve configured as a weak-point section of the capsule housing such that the weak-point ruptures in the event of pressure build-up within said capsule due to blockage of the opening of the capsule. Further, the capsule is provided with a lance that is fluidly connected to one end of the capsule. One end may be configured to conduct external manipulation of the capsule through the lance to the impermeable barrier.
Abstract:
Ozone generator cells that include two thermally conductive plates that maintain contact between various layers of the cells in the absence of a bonding agent. The cells lack aluminum-containing materials in the discharge region of the cell.
Abstract:
A reaction vessel and an ozonated liquid dispensing unit are described herein. The unit produces and dispenses an ozonated liquid that may be used to clean and sanitize a variety of articles or used in conjunction with cleaning processes and other apparatus. The reaction vessel is incorporated into the unit to reduce bubbles of ozone gas and to break up bubbles of ozone gas in the ozonated liquid to provide a more effective and longer lasting cleaning and sanitizing solution.
Abstract:
A current-limiting reactor that regulates a short-circuit current, a controller that controls an action of an inverter, and a detection unit that detects a short circuit. The controller causes the inverter to stop when a short circuit has occurred.
Abstract:
A system including: an ozone generating device including discharge electrodes forming a discharge space; a gas supplying device; a power source device that supplies power to the discharge electrodes; a temperature adjustment device that adjusts temperature of the discharge electrodes; a control unit that controls the ozone generating device; and a detection unit that detects an ozone generation parameter in the ozone generating device. The control unit increases temperature of the discharge electrodes up to a vaporizing temperature of dinitrogen pentoxide by controlling the temperature adjustment device and the gas supplying device or the temperature adjustment device and the power source device, based on the output ozone generation parameter, to thereby switch operation from a normal operation mode to a cleaning operation mode in which surfaces of the discharge electrodes and the discharge space are cleaned up while continuing generation of ozone in the discharge space.
Abstract:
A system for performing ozone water treatment comprises a voltage supply circuit and a plasma eductor reactor. The voltage supply circuit includes an H-bridge controller and driver, a transformer, and an output port. The H-bridge controller and driver are configured to switch the electrical polarity of a pair of terminals. A primary of the transformer is connected to the H-bridge driver and controller. A secondary of the transformer connects in parallel with a first capacitor and in series with an inductor and a second capacitor. The output port connects in parallel with the second capacitor. The plasma eductor reactor includes an electric field generator, a flow spreader, and a diffuser. The electric field generator includes a pair of electrodes that generate an electric field. The flow spreader supplies a stream of oxygen. The diffuser supplies a stream of water. The streams of water and oxygen pass through the electric field.
