Ecological Systems and Devices Annotation << Back The ionization plant for deep oxidation of exhaust air containing hazardous organic compounds Shcherbina A.M. Voropay L.М. Gitelman Е.B. Plekxanov А.А. This article describes the development and designing of the laboratory unit for cleaning hazardous air emissions containing organic compounds by means of corona discharge, as well as effectiveness determination of the oxidation of these compounds. The author shows the rationale for the use of corona discharge during cleaning of gas-air mixtures. The paper describes the design concept, operating principle of ionization unit forming a corona discharge. The factors affecting the efficiency of the purification method are considered. Schematic circuit of the electrical part of the unit with description of its operation, gas discharge in action, computer model of laboratory unit are also presented in this paper. Experimental research of the cleaning process at ionization unit show quite high purification efficiency. Keywords: Gas-air mixture; organic compounds; ionization cleaning; corona discharge; ionization chamber; corona-forming electrode; purification efficiency.
