METHOD AND DEVICE FOR TREATING AND/OR REFORMING GASEOUS FUELS, USE OF THE SAME IN A POWER PLANT, AND CORRESPONDING POWER PLANT

摘要

It is already known that fuels can be reformed by means of non-thermal plasmas. According to the invention, electrons are used to produce the non-thermal plasmas for reforming the fuels. The corresponding device is provided with an electron beam source (21 - 26) and a reactor vessel (30), with which means for generating and injecting the electron beam (27) into the reactor vessel (30) are associated. A specific device (110) can be advantageously associated with a gas turbine (120) for treating the burnable gas introduced into the same, thus especially creating an improved gas/steam turbine power plant (100).
