Method and generator for generation of hydrogen peroxide

摘要

A method and generator for generation of hydrogen peroxide which operate on the principle of conveying air-liquid or vapor flow through a corona discharge zone in air. Such devices can be used for disinfection of air and of various objects for industrial and home uses.

主权项

1. Device for generating hydrogen peroxide, the device comprising:
a housing having inner walls containing an inlet for an air-liquid or a vapor and separate outlets for H2O2 and air outflow, first and second electrodes positioned within the housing so as to create a space within which the air-liquid or the vapor is able to flow, and a high AC voltage supply connected to the first and second electrode configured to generate between the electrodes a corona discharge having a straight segment; wherein: a hollow centrifugal fan rotor is mounted inside the housing and is operatively coupled to a motor for rotating about an axis; an open end of the hollow rotor faces the inlet so that incoming air-liquid or vapor flows into the hollow rotor; a corona discharge zone is formed between an inner wall of the rotor and an outer wall of the second electrode which is at least partially disposed within a cavity of the rotor; the air-liquid or vapor passing through the corona discharge zone is repelled radially by the rotor to the inner walls of the housing; and the rotor changes a direction of the air-liquid or vapor flow within the straight segment of the corona discharge.
