Abstract:
A corona discharge apparatus comprising: (a) an elongate inner electrode, (b) an elongate dielectric sleeve mounted on the inner electrode, (c) an elongate outer electrode mounted on the dielectric sleeve, and (d) an ozone-producing region over which the outer electrode extends, the ozone-producing region having an inlet end and an outlet end, the ozone-producing region defined by three sealing members at the inlet end thereof and three sealing members at the outlet end thereof, the sealing members forming a seal between the inner electrode and the dielectric sleeve.
Abstract:
The present invention concerns an apparatus for corona treatment, the apparatus including a corona treatment unit (1) with an inlet side (2) and an outlet side (3), wherein the unit (1) includes one or more sets of transverse electrodes ( 10, 11), at least one electrode (10) in each set being connected to a high voltage source and at least one second electrode (11) connected electrically to earth, wherein the second electrode connected to earth includes a rotatable roller. The new feature according to the invention is that the apparatus is a through-flow apparatus adapted for corona treatment of material in sheets (9), and including at least one conveying table (4) with a transverse direction and a longitudinal direction, where the at least one conveying table (4) includes mechanical conveyor means. By such a solution is achieved an apparatus through which sheets (9) of material can be conveyed and corona- treated without holding the material and pulling it through the apparatus.
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 method is proposed for generating a non-thermal plasma having a predetermined ozone concentration, with the following steps: providing an at least approximately closed volume as a reaction region (5); activating a plasma source (3) and generating a non-thermal plasma in the reaction region (5), wherein the plasma is held in the reaction region (5) at least until a predetermined ozone concentration is reached or the ozone concentration falls below a predetermined upper limit.
Abstract:
An electric energy conversion/storage system includes an ozone generating means (12) for producing an ozonized gas from a raw material gas containing oxygen by utilizing electric energy, an ozone adsorbing/desorbing means (15) for adsorbing ozone contained in the ozonized gas and desorbing ozone from the adsorbed state, a gas circulation system for causing the raw material gas and the ozonized gas to flow through the ozone generating means (12) and the ozone absorbing/desorbing means (15) while feeding back to the ozone generating means (12) a residual part of the oxygen gas remaining after adsorption of ozone, a coolant supply means (16) for cooling the ozone adsorbing/desorbing means (15), and an ozone discharging means (29, 30) for taking out an ozone containing gas which contains ozone molecules from the ozone adsorbing/desorbing means (15) to thereby supply the ozone containing gas to an ozone consumer (23). The ozone discharging means (29, 30) includes an ozone concentration control means (29) for enabling supply of the ozone containing gas to the ozone consumer (23) substantially at a predetermined ozone concentration and substantially at a predetermined constant flow rate.
