In this study, the impedance characteristic for wire-prate plused plasma reactor was analyzed by experiment. For this, rotary spark gap and MPC purse generator were used as power source. The reactor impedance decreases with increasing wire length and applied voltage. From this fundamental experiment, we deduced a method for the impedance matching between purse generator and pulsed plasma reactor.

The effect of magnetic field was measured on NOx removal for cylinder-wire plasma reactor with magnetic field applied to electric field vertically. Power was supplied to plasma reactor using rotating spark gap switch. Consumption power increased with increasing discharge voltage. When magnetic field was applied to electric field vertically, consumption power was less than that without magnetic field because of lorenz's force. NOx removal rate of plasma reactor with magnetic field were higher, 10-15%, than that of plsama reactor without magnetic field. And NOx removal rate decreased with increasing gas flow rate.

This paper presents an experimental study on the prebreakdown characteristics in $SF_6/N_2$ mixtures under non-uniform electric fields when subjected to the positive and negative lightning impulse voltages. $SF_6/N_2$ mixtures have a merit of an environmental aspect and cost reduction, and safty aspects. In order to analyze the prebreakdown processes in $SF_6/N_2$ mixtures stressed by impulse voltages, prebreakdown current and light were observed by a shunt with high sensitivity and a photo-multiplier tube, respectively. Additionally, characteristics of luminous events in flashovers were discussed.

For the application of simultaneous $DeSO_{2}\;&\;DeNO_{x}$ equipment using non-thermal plasma process to the industrial and power plants, the many types of plasma device and process were studied. The e-beam and pulsed plasma corona discharge process are outstanding for the study to apply commercial large-scale plant from among these. In this paper, non-thermal plasma of technical trends and the characteristics of system developed by Doosan heavy industries & construction Co., Ltd. are explained. We have researched pulsed plasma corona discharge process since 1994. At the basis of reasonable results for the pilot plant, we constructed the demonstration plant at a domestic coal-fired power plant in 1999, as the previous step for commercial use. In near future, enough information about designs and costs of commercial-size system will be obtained.

A lab-scale test was carried out to study the reduction of electrical energy consumption in the pulsed corona discharge process for nitrogen oxides removal. The experiment was mainly focused on 1) the activation of pollution removal reactions by chemical additives and 2) the optimization of electrical circuit for the efficient energy transfer from the power supply to the corona reactor. Hydrocarbon chemical additives used in the experiment are thought to be responsible for the enhancement of the NO conversion through the chain reactions of free radicals such as, R, RCO, and RO. Electrical energy consumption per converted NO molecule has a minimum value of 17 eV when pentanol is injected. When ethylene and propylene are injected, 30 eV and 22 eV of electrical energy consumption is required for the conversion of NO molecule respectively. The ratio of the pulse forming capacitance$(C_e)$ to the reactor capacitance$(C_R)$ plays an important role in the energy transfer efficiency to the reactor. Maximum energy transfer efficiency of approximately 72% could be obtained by using the pulse forming capacitance which is 3.4 times larger than the reactor capacitance, and also the maximum NO conversion efficiency was observed with the same condition.

The removal of nitrogen oxides(NOx) from $N_{2}/O_{2}$ gas using a pulsed corona discharge was investigated as a function of the reduced electric field(E/N) and the energy density(J/L). A kinetic model was developed to characterize the chemical reactions taking place in a pulsed corona discharge reactor. The model calculates the fractional concentrations of radical species at each pulse-on period and utilizes the radicals to remove NOx for the subsequent pulse-off period. Electron collision reaction data are calculated using ELENDIF program to solve Boltzmann equation for electron energy distribution function, and the subsequent chemical reactions are calculated using CHEMKIN-II program to solve stiff ODE(ordinary differential equation) problems for species concentrations. The corona discharge energy per pulse and the time-space averaged E/N were obtained by fitting the model to experimental data. The model calculation shows good agreement with the experimental data, and predicts the formation of other species such as $NO_{2}$, $O_{3}$ and $N_{2}O$.

We analyzed theoretically the removal efficiency and the particle growth inside the pulse corona discharge reactor to remove $NO_x$ and investigated the effects of process variables such as the NO and $NH_3$ input concentrations. Most of NO is converted into $NO_2$ and $HNO_3$ and the $HNO_3$ reacts with $NH_3$ to form the $NH_4NO_3$ particles. About 6.4% of NO is converted into $HNO_2$ which form the $NH_4NO_2$ particles by reaction with $NH_3$. Some of $NO_2$ follows the reaction pathway to form $NO_3$ and $N_2O_5$. The amount of particles formed inside the reactor is basically determined by the input $NH_3$ concentration. The ratio of NO to $NH_3$ affects the reactor length for particle formation significantly. The higher the input concentrations of NO and $NH_3$ are, the faster the particles grow.

대기환경 규제가 강화됨에 따라 기존 기술 대비 획기적인 성능과 가격 경쟁력을 갖춘 새로운 대기환경 기술에 대한 수요가 지속적으로 요구되고 있다. 특히 최근에는 종래의 분진, 이산화황가스 및 질소산화물에 대한 규제와 더불어 지구온난화가스인 이산화탄소, 과불화화합물 (Perfluorocompounds, PFCs), 메탄가스 등에 대한 규제가 강화되면서 이에 대응할 수 있는 대기환경 기술의 수요가 늘고 있다. 한국기계연구원에서는 지난 10 여 년간 지구온난화가스이자 난분해성 가스인 메탄 및 PFCs 가스를 플라즈마 화학반응 공정을 통해 분해하는 연구를 수행해왔으며, 이를 바탕으로 산업에 적용할 수 있는 기술개발도 병행하여 수행하였다. 현재 개발된 기술 가운데 일부는 산업에 실제로 적용되고 있으며, 이를 통해 산업현장에서는 지구온난화가스는 물론 질소산화물과 같은 다른 종류의 규제물질도 동시에 저감할 수 있었다. 본 발표에서는 플라즈마를 활용하여 난분해성 가스인 메탄과 PFCs를 분해하는 기술의 특성을 살펴보았으며, 이를 바탕으로 산업현장에 적용된 대기환경기술이 어떻게 활용되고 있는지를 소개하고 있다. 본 발표에서 다루게 될 플라즈마 발생기술은 펄스 코로나, 유전체장벽방전, 마이크로웨이브 토치, 아아크 토치 등이며, 플라즈마 발생조건은 수 torr 이하의 진공조건부터 및 대기압 조건에 이르고 있다.

The selective catalytic reduction(SCR) system used to reduce NOx in diesel engines requires an NO/$NO_2$ ratio of about 1 in exhaust emissions to realize the fast SCR mode at temperatures lower than $300^{\circ}C$. This study investigated the characteristics of a plasma system as a pre-active apparatus for the fast SCR reaction mode of an SCR system. Plasma was generated by the pulse corona discharge(PCD) method with a four-channel wire-cylinder reactor. This study showed that plasma was easily generated in the exhaust gas by the PCD system, and the peak voltage of the normal state condition for plasma generation was generally 12 kV. The PCD system easily converted NO into $NO_2$ at lower temperatures and the NO/$NO_2$ conversion ratio increased with the discharge current for plasma generation. But the PCD system could not convert NO into $NO_2$ at higher engine speeds and higher engine loads due to the lack of oxygen in exhaust gas. The PCD system also activated the diesel oxidation catalysts(DOC) system to reduce CO emissions.

A conventional electrolyzing cell has been made by an ion exchange membrane inbetween parallel plate electrodes. A low dc voltage is applied to the electrodes for electrolyzing and the efficiency is remained in low. in this study, a novel electrolyzing cell with a pair of slit-type third electrodes installed inbetween parallel plate electrodes has been proposed and investigated experimentally. And pulse power wa supplied to between each electrodes. This slit type of third electrodes can concentrate the strong electric fields at the every its edges to accelerate the electrolyzing powers, and to generate oxygen bubble discharges for generating oxidants. And moreover the slits eliminate the space charge limiting action and the temperature of the water by leaking out through the slits from electrolyzing region to outside of the main electrode region. As a result, it was found that a strong electorzed water of pH 2.8 and pH 10.5 and oxidants dissolved water of 1 [ppm] in acidic water were obtained with a tap water fed at the electric current of 2 [A], which however were several times higher oxidant and ion concentration quantity compared with the conventional cell.
