Abstract:
A coated article, in particular a tool for cutting machining, has at least one titanium diboride layer which has been deposited by a thermal CVD process and has a thickness of at least 0.1 μm. The titanium diboride layer has an extremely fine-grained microstructure with an average grain size of not more than 50 nm.
Abstract:
An air conditioning apparatus with an air cleaning function. In the apparatus, an electric dust collector is provided in the air passage on the rear side of a heat exchanger. A heater for self-cleaning is combined with a dust collector electrode of the electric dust collector. A heat shield plate is combined with the heater. Air flow resistance is not increased although the dust collector electrode is plane in shape. An increase of air flow resistance caused by the use of the heat shield plate is also suppressed.
Abstract:
A dust collection electrode with catalyst to be provided on the electronic dust collector is manufactured simply at low cost without using a furnace. To the surface of the metal tube of the sheathed heater a low temperature curing type heat resistant inorganic adhesive is applied. Thereafter, a catalyst such as Zeolite is adhered to the heat-resistant inorganic adhesive. Next, the sheathed heater is energized to make self-heating, and using said heating, the heat-resistant inorganic adhesive is heated to cure, thereby fixing the catalyst layer to the surface of the metal tube.
Abstract:
A device for treating an exhaust gas containing particles includes: an exhaust gas line, an emission electrode and an electric supply line for the emission electrode. The electric supply line is at least partially surrounded by an electric insulator and the electric insulator has an outer diameter, the electric insulator extending from the exhaust gas line substantially in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the exhaust gas line. The outer diameter measures at most 20 mm in the terminal region towards the longitudinal axis.

Abstract:
A method for converting soot particles of an exhaust gas includes providing at least nitrogen dioxide or oxygen in the exhaust gas, ionizing soot particles with an electric field, depositing electrically charged soot particles on inner channel walls of at least one surface precipitator, and bringing at least nitrogen dioxide or oxygen into contact with the deposited soot particles on the inner channel walls of the at least one surface precipitator. A device for carrying out the method includes at least one surface precipitator having a plurality of channels through which the exhaust gas can flow and extending between an inlet region and an outlet region, and at least one deposit inhibitor for electrically charged soot particles provided in at least part of the inlet region, especially allowing the soot particles to be evenly deposited and the surface precipitator to be continuously regenerated.

Abstract:
Provided is a plasma assisted exhaust emission control device with less electric power consumption and with no harmful gas discharged into atmosphere. A filter body 7 is constituted by porous members through which exhaust gas 2 passes for capturing of particulates in the exhaust gas 2 and is provided with rod-like and cylindrical electrodes 9 and 10 so as to generate plasma in the filter body 7, thereby providing a plasma regenerative particulate filter 11. The particulate filter 11 is accommodated in a filter casing within an exhaust pipe 3. Oxidation catalysts 16 and are arranged respectively upstream and downstream of adjacent to the particular filter 11 in the filter casing 12 so as to obtain heat insulation effect to the particulate filter 11.
Abstract:
A device for cleaning of gases of electrically conductive particles, like soot and the like, in particular for cleaning of exhaust gases of fossil fuels, like exhaust gases of Diesel motors and the like, with a coagulator admitted by the gases is suggested, whereby for preventing the formation of a short circuit bridge between electrode and housing of coagulator caused by deposition of agglomerates the insulator which provides for an insulated conduct of electrode through housing is provided with a ring segment at the location where the electrode exits into the inside of the housing extending in axial direction from the insulator, whereby at least one preferable ring like annealing zone is provided thereon. Due to the prevailing temperature of about 450.degree. C. at annealing zone all depositing agglomerates are burned off.
