ARC DISCHARGE TYPE REACTION FACILITY

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an arc discharge type reaction facility capable of surely generating a decomposition reaction and a synthetic reaction, or the like, by expanding an area in which arc exists, and effectively promoting these reactions. SOLUTION: The arc discharge type reaction facility 1 has a housing 3 whose one end has a gas inlet 8 and the other end has a gas outlet 9, two electrode plates 10 and 11 installed inside the housing 3 so as to oppose to each other in order to introduce gas to be reacted from the gas inlet 8 to the gas outlet 9 and forming a gas flow passage P between the opposing faces, and a power supply 12 for applying a discharge voltage between both the electrode plates 10 and 11 in a state that the gas to be reacted is circulated in the gas flow passage P. An arc discharge generating area A1formed by approaching the gas inlet 8 side to both the electrode plates 10 and 11 and an arc discharge generating area A2formed by gradually increasing the distance (d) between both the electrode plates 10 and 11 from the arc discharge generating area A1toward the gas outlet 9 side exist in the gas flow passage P.
