    Abstract: A corona discharge device is provided in which a corona discharge region is formed between the very narrow and small surface area line edges of two electrodes. The electrodes may be generally sheet form and each have a base portion and N protruding portions extending from the base portion (N being an integer and ≦1). The protruding portions of the electrodes are shaped and positioned to inter-mate with another to define a serpentine shaped region between the electrodes, wherein edges of protruding portions of one electrode and edges of protruding portions of the other electrode are disposed in parallel to and directly opposite one another so as to form 2N−1 corona discharge region segments therebetween. When the electrodes are energized by a high voltage AC signal a corona discharge is formed in each discharge region segment. Preferably a dielectric wafer lies about half way within each corona discharge region, and is oriented perpendicularly to the plane of the electrodes. When mounted within a chamber, an oxygen containing gas can be fed through the corona discharge regions of the device to conveniently and efficiently generate ozone. The HVAC power circuit which provides the driving AC voltage to the electrodes may also have a corona adjustment level circuit that adjusts the mark-space ratio of the AC voltage.

    Abstract: In an electrical discharge reactor for facilitating chemical reactions, power consumption and yield of chemical reactions are optimized, and heat dissipation is improved, by filling an interspace between a first electrode (1) and a second electrode (2) of the discharge reactor with a block (4) of rigid, open-pored dielectric material. The material preferably has a porosity of 80-90%. The skeleton of the block can consist of glass, quartz or ceramic. The diameter of the pores in the block, in which micro-discharges occur, represents an effective gap width that is critical for the progress of the silent discharge. The diameter of the pores can, for example, be between 0.05 millimeters and 0.2 millimeters to optimize power consumption. As a safeguard against breakdown, a barrier layer (5) of a nonconductive, solid material can be provided between the electrodes (1, 2). To facilitate a reaction of CO.sub.2 and H.sub.2 to form methanol and water, or to facilitate a reaction of CO.sub.2 and CH.sub.4 to form synthesis gas, the skeleton of the block can be coated with a suitable catalyst. The catalyst can include, for example, Cu and ZrO.sub.2, or Cu and ZnO, or nickel compounds.

Gas flow between the top and bottom chambers (12, 14) is along radially inner and outer annular passageways within the assembly (16) and the top chamber (12) is partitioned into two chambers which respectively communicate with these passageways. The generator (10) may have a plurality of similar assemblies (16) extending in parallel between common top and bottom chambers (12, 14).

    Abstract: An ozone generation cell operating by corona discharge in an annular passage with regions of corona discharge alternating with corona-free regions where cooling takes place is improved by the incorporation of corrugated, deformable heat transfer walls in the corona-free regions. These corrugated walls impart flexibility to the structure, and thereby relieve the strain on the structural components. This permits the heat transfer wall, which is the outer of the two cylinders defining the annular passage, to center the inner of the two cylinders inside it and thus achieve a more uniform gap width in the corona regions. This is of value since the inner cylinder is preferably made of a ceramic material and not perfectly straight. The corrugations also promote turbulent flow in both the coolant medium and the gas mixture in which the ozone is generated.

    Abstract: An ozone generator utilizes one or more cylindrical anodes having disposed centrally therein an elongated cylindrical dielectric tube. The dielectric tube is filled with an inert gas at low pressure and contains at a first end thereof beyond the encirclement of the anode a relatively short electrode. In a preferred embodiment, the electrode takes the shape of a cone having the small end thereof coupled through the first end of the dielectric envelope to a source of high energy alternating electric power. The large end of the cone is open and directed toward the far end of the dielectric envelope. Electrons are emitted from the electrode and focused down the length of the dielectric envelope, creating an electron haze which induces a variety of electron focusing phenomena in an annular reaction space between the dielectric envelope and the encircling anode. These electron focusing phenomena include a corona on the outside of the dielectric envelope, high voltage spikes between the dielectric envelope and anode, and a virtual plasma filling the annular reaction space. The electron focusing phenomena induce ozone formation when oxygen bearing feed gas is pumped down the length of the reaction space. The exterior of the anode is provided with a water jacket for heat removal. Use of the ozone generator in a water purification system is disclosed for illustrative purposes.
