Corona discharge and ozone generation characteristics of a wire-plate plasma reactor, with a biased third electrode, have been investigated with an emphasis on the role of the bias voltage and frequency applied on the third electrode. It was found that the wire-plate plasma reactor, with the biased third electrode, had a switching characteristic on its I-V characteristics for negative and positive discharges, which is very different from that of a conventional wire-plate plasma reactor without the third electrode. As a result, the corona discharge and ozone generation characteristics of the proposed plasma reactor could be controlled by adjusting the bias voltage and frequency of the third electrode. The corona onset and breakdown voltages, and ozone generation and yield, were increased compared with those of without the third electrode. These, however, reveal the effectiveness of the biased third electrode.

The purpose of this paper is to study the removal of nitrogen oxide(NOx) using a wire-plate type plasma reactor with magnet attached for indoor air purification. In order to produce a more effective reactor, we conducted magnetic field simulations. The results of the magnetic field simulations show that NOx can be removed more effectively. The results from the magnetic field simulation show that when 7 magnets were applied to the reactor, the magnetic flux density was at its highest amount than when using 0, 3, or 5 magnets. From the data obtained by the simulation results a plasma reactor was made and thus, several experiments were conducted. The best removal efficiency was obtained with 14 W AC power to the reactor with 5 magnets.

Corona discharge and ozone generation characteristics of a slit dielectric barrier discharge type wire-plate plasma reactor with a third electrode have been investigated. When a third electrode is installed on a slit of the slit barrier, where an intense corona discharge occurs, it is found that a significantly increased ozone output could be obtained. This, however, indicates that the third electrode can activate the corona discharges both of the discharge wire and the slit of the slit barrier in the plasma reactor. As a result, a thin stainless wire, used as the third electrode has a strong effect to influence the corona discharge of the slit and corona wire, especially to the negative corona discharge. Higher amounts of the output ozone and ozone yield, about 1.27 and 1.29 times for the negative corona discharge, can be obtained with the third electrode, which reveals the effectiveness of the third electrode.

Simultaneous effects of $C_2H_4$ injection and heterogeneous chemical reactions on non-thermal plasma process to remove $SO_2$ and NOx from flue gas were investigated in the present experimental study. The present results showed that 40% of the electrical power can be reduced in $C_2H_4$ injection and heterogeneous chemical reaction are simultaneously included in the non-thermal plasma precess. As an effort to apply the non-thermal plasma technique to practical flue gas treatment system, a wire-plate type reactor which has technically similar geometry of industrial electrostatic precipitators is used instead of other types of reactors, such as wire-cylinder, packed-bed and surface discharge which are inappropriate to industrial application. In the present study, the photo pictures of positive streamer corona taken by ICCD camera, voltage and current oscillograms, and design criteria of a wire-plate type reactor are also shown, which are needed for industrial application of the non-thermal plasma process.

Due to advancement of industrialization, the flue gas from the combustion of industrial factories and various means of transportation have polluted air. Therefore, it is necessary to develop new techniques of air purification. In order to produce a more effective reactor, simulation were conducted using the Flux-II D program. The condition of the simulation were as follows: The height of the plate electrode was 0 mm or 2 mm higher than that of the wire electrode. The distance between the electrodes was 12 mm, and the diameter of the wire electrode was 0.5 mm or 1.0 mm. The results of the electric potential and electric field simulations show that pollutants will be more effectively removed due to the dielectric strength between wire electrode and plate electrode which was strong, and wire electrodes which were concentrated in a high electric field.

A wire-plate discharge system with a slit barrier has been proposed and investigated experimentally by focusing on the discharges on the slit barrier and ozone generation characteristics. This wire-plate discharge system with a slit barrier can generate an intensive corona discharges, and produce corona discharge twice, once from the corona wire electrode and second time from the surface and the slits of the slit dielectric barrier. As a result this propose wire-plate discharge system with the slit barrier can produce greatly increased ozone than without the slit barrier. This type of wire-plate discharge system with the slit barrier could be used for effective ozone generation as a means with retard to the removal of pollutant gas

Basic characteristics of non-thermal plasma process to remove C2H4 and NO have been experimentally investigated with a packed-bed type reactor and an ac power supply. The performance of the non-thermal plasma generated by ac power supply was compared with that of a wire-plate type reactor equipped with a pulsed power supply. The result shows that the non-thermal plasma can be effectively generated with an AC power supply that can be easily fabricated with conventional techniques. In order to understand the basic reaction mechanisms of the non-thermal plasma process, parametric tests for different carrier gases(air and nitrogen) and for different reaction pathways have been performed. The test results show that O3 generated by non-thermal plasma plays an dominant role to oxidize C2H4 and NO over N and O radicals when these pollutant gases are carried by dry air under room temperature condition. Experimental observations, however, indicate that N and O radicals can significantly affect on the removal process of the pollutant gases under certain conditions.

산업화에 기인하여 공장 및 수송수단 증가로 대기배출가스량이 증가 그 결과 대기오염이 심화되어 가고 있다. 그러므로 실내오염가스의 정화가 우선적으로 고려되어야 하므로 이러한 오염된 공기를 제거 할 수 있는 장치의 개발이 절실히 요구되어지고 있다. 본 연구는 환경오염물질 제거를 위한 선 대 평판형 플라즈마 반응기 제작에 필요한 최적조건을 도출하기 위하여 반응기 내부의 전위 및 전계분포에 대한 시뮬레이션을 하였고 여기서 도출된 결과를 바탕으로 플라즈마 반응기를 제작하고자 한다.

본 연구는 저온 플라즈마 탈질 기술의 전력소모량 절감과 처리율 향상을 모색하고자 저온 플라즈마 조건에서 NOx와 반응제의 반응 특성을 고찰하였다. 실험은 $20Nm^3/hr$의 실제 배가스와 wire-plate type 플라즈마 반응기를 이용하여 진행되었으며, 반응제로는 파라핀계와 올레핀계 탄화수소 및 $NH_3$를 사용하였다. 저온 플라즈마 조건에서 올레핀계 탄화수소는 파라핀계 탄화수소에 비하여 NO의 산화에 탁월한 효과를 보여 다량의 $NO_2$를 생성할 뿐만 아니라 미량의 CO도 생성하였다. 또한 NOx의 초기농도가 높아지면 NO의 산화율은 감소할 뿐만 아니라 올레핀계 탄화수소의 소모량도 두드러진 증가를 보였다. 한편 $NH_3$은 저온 플라즈마 조건에서 NO와의 환원반응이 촉진되지 않았지만 올레핀계 탄화수소에 의하여 산화된 $NO_2$의 제거에는 효과적인 경향을 보였다.
