Abstract:
In an ozone generating system which performs intermittent operation, that is, an operation in an ozone generating operation period in which ozone is generated by discharging gas including oxygen at a discharge electrode part and an operation in an ozone generating operation standby period in which ozone is not generated by stopping discharge are alternately repeated, a gas circulating device which circulates gas in the ozone generating apparatus and removes at least nitric acid from the gas which is circulated is connected to the ozone generating apparatus.
Abstract:
An ozone generating apparatus includes a base container for holder water and a head assembly connected to the upper edge of the base container, the head assembly containing ozone generating cells, each having a dielectric tube and an electrode assembly coaxially disposed with the associated dielectric tube. The dielectric tubes and electrode assemblies are disposed and connected such that the tube and/or electrode assembly of each ozone generating cell can be accessed and replaced independently of all other ozone generating cells, and such that the possibility of cascade failure of all remaining ozone generating cells upon failure of a single cell is substantially eliminated.
Abstract:
An oxidation catalyst, an ozone injection nozzle, a urea-based fluid injection nozzle, and a selective reduction catalyst are arranged in an exhaust pipe of an engine in this order towards its outlet. An exhaust gas purifier includes an air flow sensor that detects an air intake amount of the engine, a NOx sensor that detects a NOx concentration in the exhaust pipe, and first and second temperature sensors that detect inlet temperatures of the catalysts. An ozone generation device to which the ozone injection nozzle is connected includes a compressor, a dryer that dries compressed air, a flow rate sensor that detects a flow rate of this air, an ozone generator that converts this air into ozone, and an ozone concentration sensor that detects a concentration of the ozone. A controller controls the compressor and the ozone generator based on respective detection outputs of the respective sensors.
Abstract:
A gas pipe integrated block includes a plurality of internal pipe paths. The plurality of internal pipe paths are connected to a nitrogen-free ozone generator in which a photocatalytic material for generating ozone is applied to a discharge surface, a controller (an MFC, a gas filter, and an APC), a raw material gas supply port, and an ozone gas output port. Thereby, a raw material gas input pipe path extending from the raw material gas supply port through the APC to the nitrogen-free ozone gas generator, and an ozone gas output pipe path extending from the nitrogen-free ozone generator through the gas filter and the MFC to the ozone gas output port, are formed in an integrated unit.

Abstract:
A compact, inexpensive, large-capacity ozone generator with increased ease of apparatus maintenance. An ozone power supply includes an n-phase inverter for obtaining an AC voltage having a predetermined frequency and outputting an n-phase AC voltage waveform; n reactors and an n-phase transformer for converting an n-phase AC voltage to a high AC voltage; n high-voltage terminals for outputting the n-phase high AC voltage; and a low-voltage terminal having a common potential. Ozone generator units are electrically divided into n pieces within a discharge chamber. Each ozone generator unit includes n high-voltage electrode terminals and one low-voltage electrode terminal, common to all ozone generator units. Each ozone generator unit supports an n-phase AC discharge to generate ozone.

To enable to reduce a manufacturing cost and to generate high-concentration ozone gas, in a plate-type discharge cell for ozonizer. To improve ozone concentration without depending on reduction of a gap amount in a discharge gap. Dispose dielectric bodies between a high-voltage electrode and a low-voltage electrode to form a discharge gap. On a back surface side of the high-voltage and the low-voltage electrodes, a high-voltage insulating plate and a low-voltage insulating plate are disposed, respectively, for insulating the electrodes and from cooling water. A thickness of the high-voltage insulating plate is set to not less than 0.5 times and not more than 3.5 times the total thickness of the dielectric bodies, which are disposed between the high-voltage and the low-voltage electrodes. Opposed surfaces of the dielectric bodies, which contact the discharge gap, are smoothed such that a roughness Ra thereof is not larger than 2 μm.
Abstract:
This is a discharge cell used for an ozonizer. A space where a discharge gap amount is determined between the first electrodes 10 and 10 is formed by stacking a couple of upper and lower first electrodes 10 and 10, constituted by the plate-like rigid body, in both sides with sandwiching a couple of rigid body spacers 20 and 20. In this space, a dielectric body unit 30 that consists of a rigid body of the sandwich structure of sandwiching a second electrode 32 is arranged between glass plates 31 and 31. The dielectric body unit 30 is supported in a neutral position in the space by a plurality of spacers 40, 40, . . . for discharge gap formation that are inserted between the upper and lower first electrodes 10, and forms discharge gaps 50 and 50 in both sides. The minimum discharge gap amount G of 0.4 mm or less is stably secured. It is possible to prevent the damage of a cell component and a pressurizing mechanism.

Abstract:
A method and apparatus for improving the yield of ozone gas in a closed ozone generator unit. In a closed ozone generator unit, oxygen gas is transformed into ozone gas by means of alternating current, the oxygen gas being substantially pressurized before entry into the unit. The unit is exposed to an external pressure substantially equal to or higher than the pressure of the oxygen gas.
