Abstract:
An improved apparatus for generating a negative charge effect in the environment, in which opposite charged spaced electrically conductive plates are dielectric material. A relatively high alternating voltage is applied between alternate spaced plates with sufficient dielectric strength and dielectric constant to withstand the generation of a cold glow discharge or plasma, and withstand the deposit of dirt on them, and withstand exposure to corrosion, humidity, high temperatures, corrosive gases and fumes. A process is disclosed for the separation of undesirable gases and particulates in polluted areas or airstreams. The present invention relates to the excitation, dissociation, and breakdown of gases and other pollutants.
Abstract:
An improved means for generating a negative charge effect in the environment, in which oppositely charged electrically conductive plates are coated with secondary emissive material and are enclosed in a sealed container such as glass that is preferably filled with an inert gas such as argon.
