Researches on the elimination of sulfur and nitrogen oxides with catalysts and absorbents reported many problems related with elimination efficiency and complex devices. In this study, decomposition efficiency of harmful gases was investigated. It was found that the efficiency rate can be increased by moving the harmful gases together with SPCP reactor and the catalysis reactor. Calcium hydroxide($Ca(OH)_2$), CaO, and $TiO_2$ were used as catalysts. Harmful air polluting gases such as $SO_2$ were measured for the analysis of decomposition efficiency, power consumption, and voltage according to changes to the process variables including frequency, concentration, electrode material, thickness of electrode, number of electrode winding, and additives to obtain optimal process conditions and the highest decomposition efficiency. The standard sample was sulfur oxide($SO_2$). Harmful gases were eliminated by moving them through the plasma generated in the SPCP reactor and the $Ca(OH)_2$ catalysis reactor. The elimination rate and products were analyzed with the gas analyzer (Ecom-AC,Germany), FT-IR(Nicolet, Magna-IR560), and GC-(Shimazu). The results of the experiment conducted to decompose and eliminate the harmful gas $SO_2$ with the $Ca(OH)_2$ catalysis reactor and SPCP reactor show 96% decomposition efficiency at the frequency of 10 kHz. The conductivity of the standard gas increased at the frequencies higher than 20 kHz. There was a partial flow of current along the surface. As a result, the decomposition efficiency decreased. The decomposition efficiency of harmful gas $SO_2$ by the $Ca(OH)_2$ catalysis reactor and SPCP reactor was 96.0% under 300 ppm concentration, 10 kHz frequency, and decomposition power of 20 W. It was 4% higher than the application of the SPCP reactor alone. The highest decomposition efficiency, 98.0% was achieved at the concentration of 100 ppm.

The superposing effect of SPCP(Surfoce Induced Plasma Chemical Process) and corona discharge has been studied for rerroval of NOx from industrial flue gases. NOx rermval rates by SPCP, corona discharge and superposing discharge were monitored and compared. Parameters were the concentration and the flow rate of gas, frequency and the type of discharge. Experirrental results showed that NOx removal rate by sUIffPOSing discharge was 10-15[%] higher than that by the other two modes. The higher NOx. rermval rate was observed with the lower frequency of upper electrode in the combined reactor and with the higher frequency of lower electrode. 'The maximum obtainable NOx. rerroval rate by SPCP (18 [W]) and corona discharge (8.5 [W]) was 80[%] and 10[%], respectively. With the combination of the two modes, however, 90[%] of NOx removal rate was observed with the discharge power of 14 [W].14 [W].

In this paper, characteristics of ozone generation by using coil and SPCP + DC corona reactor was studied. The ceramic-based surface discharge electrode, which was first invented as a high-efficiency ozonizer, has been used as an experimental plasma chemical reactor.(Surface Induced Plasma Chemical Processing, SPCP.) The electrode, however, has a structural disadvantage that a highly energetic plasma region is localized near the electrode surface, which may make it impossible for higher efficiency to realize. In an attempt to overcome this advantage, we have developed a hybrid reactor which employs a corona discharge unit together with the surface discharge unit. Experimental results suggest that the efficiency of the ozone production rate is improved when positive corona discharge is added.

The decomposition performance of the Surface induced Plasma Chemical Processing(SPCP) for benzene, toluene, xylene and $NO_2$ were experimentally examined. Discharge exciting frequency range was 5kHz and 10kHz, and low frequency discharge requires high voltage to inject high electric power in gas and to decompose contaminants. The decomposition rate of dioxide nitrogen for 5kHz power in gas and to decompose contaminants. The decomposition rate of dioxide nitrogen for 5kHz power supply is only 85%, but it’s rate for 10kHz power supply is very high, more than 96% when peak voltage is 12kv. Aromatic hydrocarbon vapor of up to 1000ppm is almost throughly decomposed at the flow rate of 1000$\ell$/min or lower rate under the discharge with electric power of several hundred watts. High decomposition rate is shown in every case, that is, for SPCP reactor is necessary to obtain the decomposition rate of more than 80~98%. The decomposition rate of benzene, toluene and xylene were 90~98% and dioxide nitrogen was 45~96%.

The Decomposition of NO$_2$ (nitrogen dioxide), one of the Hazardous Air Pollutant (HAP), was studied by utilizing the SPCP (Surface induced discharge Plasma Chemical Processing) reactor so as to obtain optimum process variables and maximum decomposition efficiencies. Experimental results showed that for the frequency of 10kHz, the highest deco position efficiency of 84.7% for NO$_2$ was observed at the power consumptions of 20W. The decomposition efficiency of $NO_2$ was found to be: 1) proportional to the residence times, and inversely proportional to the initial concentrations of $NO_2$; 2) the maximum when the electrode diameter was 3mm; 3) influenced by the electrode material, decreasing in the order of W>Cu>Al; and 4) proportional to the $CH_4$ content, due to which the highest efficiency of 98% was obtained with almost all the $NO_2$ removed.
