Abstract:
An ozone generating device includes three or more cooling channels each having a through-hole formed in a central region thereof and a coolant flow path formed therein. The cooling channels are arranged side by side such that the through-holes thereof overlap with one another. The ozone generating device further includes electric discharge units interposed between the cooling channels adjoining each other and configured to generate electric discharge when applied with a high voltage. Each of the electric discharge units has a central hole formed in alignment with the through-hole. The ozone generating device is configured such that, when the electric discharge units are applied with a high voltage with the cooling channels kept grounded, oxygen supplied to the electric discharge units is decomposed into ozone which in turn is discharged through an internal space defined by the through-hole and the central hole.
Abstract:
An ozone generator in which a discharge region may be enlarged without damaging ozone generating performance. In the ozonizer, an alternating current is applied between a first electrode and a second electrode, and a discharge is produced in a gap into which oxygen is injected. In the first electrode, an ozone gas passage for retrieving ozone gas generated in the discharge region is located between an electrode surface facing the discharge region and a side. The ozone gas passages are dispersed in the first electrode. The ozone gas passages collect ozone generated at discharge region locations inside the first electrode.
Abstract:
An ozone generator system (1) in which a multitude of plate type ozone generators (2) are arranged adjacent to each other in a block (3). Each ozone generator comprises a chamber, adapted for converting oxygen to ozone by a corona discharge, and each chamber is provided with an inlet for oxygen or an oxygen-rich gas and an outlet for ozone. Said ozone generators are arranged in a block module (26) in which they are affixed by a block rack (4). Said block rack comprises an inlet port (5) adapted for introduction of oxygen gas, and an outlet port (6) adapted for discharge of ozone created through conversion within the generators comprised in the block module. A multitude of first conduits (7), each running between said inlet port and one chamber inlet, and a multitude of second conduits (8), each running between said outlet port and one chamber outlet, are provided within said block rack. Said conduits are arranged so that the flow distance between the inlet and outlet ports has the same length, regardless of which generator the introduced gas passes through, thereby achieving an even gas pressure and gas flow, through parallel connection of the generators.
Abstract:
A high efficiency system for generating ozone includes a high frequency, high voltage AC power supply, preferably 20 khz at 100 watts. The ozone generator in the system comprising a pair of conductive plates mounted parallel and opposed to each other and a pair of dielectric films. Preferably fused quartz, adhesively secured to the opposed faces of the plates by a heat-conductive, electrically-conductive adhesive. The dielectric films are spaced from each other to define an air space for flow of an oxygen containing air stream there through. The air space encloses corona discharges created when power is delivered to the conductive plates, the corona discharges converting a portion of the oxygen flowing there through to ozone. Cooling means are also provided to the plates.
Abstract:
A process and reactor for chemical conversion is taught. The process allows the selective breaking of chemical bonds in a molecule by use of fast rise alternating current or fast rise pulsed direct current, each fast rise portion being selected to have a suitable voltage and frequency to break a selected chemical bond in a molecule. The reactor for carrying out such a process includes a chamber for containing the molecule and a generator for generating and applying the selected fast rise current.
Abstract:
The present invention discloses an ozone generator with reduced NOx comprising an air stream generating device; a drying device; an electrical field generating unit; a high-voltage generating device; and a cooling device. The flow velocity of the air stream in the ozone generating area can be increased by the air stream generating device up to 700 s.c.c.m. The temperature in the ozone generating area can be lowered by the cooling system to lower than 10° C. The amount of NOx produced by the disclosed ozone generator can be reduced substantially.

Abstract:
A device for generating ozone from oxygen-containing gases by a silent discharge includes an arrangement with at least one gap through which the gas flows. The arrangement includes an electrode and a dielectric that separates the gap from another electrode. The gap is filled up with an electrically and thermally conductive gas-permeable arrangement that is in electrical and thermal contact with the adjacent electrode and that the oxygen-containing gas flows through. The gas-permeable arrangement includes a multiplicity of discharge spaces wherein the oxygen-containing gas is exposed to a high field strength and converted into ozone, and the reaction heat occurring in the gap is dissipated to the adjacent electrode by the electrically and thermally conductive gas-permeable arrangement.
