FURNACE ATMOSPHERE ACTIVATION METHOD AND APPARATUS

摘要

A gas injector including in which a gas is passed through high-voltage/low - current electrical discharges before being discharged into the chamber of a thermal treatment furnace. The electrical activation of the gas accelerates desirabl e reactions between the gas, gases in the furnace chamber, and the chamber workload. Preferably, a hot electrode is electrically charged and the other parts of the gas injecto r and the furnace are grounded.
