ELECTRODE AND REACTION CHAMBER FOR USE IN GENERATION OF NON-THERMAL PLASMA

摘要

An electrode for use in reaction chambers (1) where purification is performed by the effluent which has to be purified being conducted through one or more cells formed by electrically conductive tubes (2) and where at least one electrode (3) is mounted inside the tube or tubes. Non-thermal plasma is created by means of electrical discharges between electrode and tube, thus provoking natural purification processes through chemical oxidation and reduction. The electrode (3) consists of an electrically conductive core (5) surrounded by a resistive material (6), where at least on or near the surface of the resistive material there is provided at least one electrically conductive body (7; 7b).
