- pollutant molecules such as S H S, NI-I CH or of the type C H
- an electric device for the treatment of a gaseous fluid by the setting up of a zone with different electric potentials in a treatment space comprising at least one treatment element to be disposed in the gaseous fluid to be treated, the treatment element comprising a first electrode which in use of the device is to be connected to a source of positive unidirectional pulses of electric current, a solid dielectric material so disposed about the first electrode as to insulate electrically at least one face of the first electrode from the gaseous fluid to be treated, and a second, grid-like, electrode disposed so as to cover at least partially the dielectric material on the side to be exposed to the gaseous fluid to be treated.
- the gaseous fluid to be treated is no longer in direct contact with the positive or first electrode so that the negative ions produced in the electrical discharges generated by this device are no longer removed by the first electrode and hence there is an increase in the number of negative ions present.
- FIG. 1 represents the circuit diagram of a first embodiment of the device made in accordance with the present invention
- FIG. 2 represents the circuit diagram of a second embodiment of the device made in accordance with the present invention.
- FIG. 3 represents a cross-section through an embodiment of a treatment element of the device made in accordance with the invention.
- FIG. 1 represents an embodiment of an electric device for the treatment of gaseous fluid made in accordance with the invention, which device comprises an electric generator 1, an electrode in the form of a continuous plate 2, the so-called back electrode, and two electrodes in the form of grids or meshes, made of stainless steel, 3 and 4, the so-called front electrodes.
- the generator 1 is of the type which provides unidirectional pulses of current (or a unidirectional pulsed current).
- the back electrode or plate 2 is connected to the positive terminal HT of the generator 1, while the front electrodes or grids 3 and 4 are connected to the other, neutral terminal of the generator 1. In the illustrated embodiment the neutral terminal is connected to earth.
- the plate 2 is insulated electrically from the gaseous fluid to be treated which circulates in zones of a treatment space 20, by insulating plates or layers 5 which are represented schematically in FIG. 1.
- Each dielectric insulating plate or layer 5 covers one of the faces of the plate 2 and is interposed between the plate 2 and the corresponding grid 3 or 4 which completely covers the insulating plate or layer 5 on the side of the corresponding zone of the treatment space 20.
- the plate 2 is surrounded by the treatment space 20 and is covered on each of its two faces by the corresponding insulating plate or layer 5, which is itself covered by the corresponding grid 3 or 4, the grids 3 and 4 being connected electrically to one another by a conductor in such a way as to be brought to the same electric potential.
- the plate 2 is equipped with projections or raised parts 2a which are uniformly distributed over the entire area of each of its faces.
- Each of the projections 2a act as a point of emission of positive polarity of an intense electric induction field giving rise within the treatment space 20 to a spike of discharges. Due to the uniform distribution of the projections 2a, the positive spikes coming from the combination formed by the plate 2 covered by the insulating plates or layers 5, are uniformly distributed over the entire area of the combination, so that the distribution of the energy set up in these spikes is substantially uniform.
- each projection 20 of one face of the plate 2 coincides with a hole 30 or 4a of the corresponding grid 3 or 4.
- Each insulating plate or layer 5 comprises substantially pin-point zones or zones of small area 5a, that is to say zones, the average diameter of which is substantially equal to or less than that of the holes 3a and 4a of the corresponding grid 3 and 4, these zones having a higher dielectric constant (in the case of FIGS. 1 and 2) or a lower thickness (in the case of FIG. 3) than that (dielectric constant or thickness, depending on the particular case) of the remainder of the insulating plate or layer.
- the zones 5a are uniformly distributed over the entire area of the plate or layer 5 and thus cause the electric energy discharged in the form of the abovementioned spikes of discharges to be distributed uniformly.
- each of the zones 5a coincides with a hole 3a or 40 of the corresponding grid 3 or 4, (see FIG. 3).
- FIG. 3 also shows the plate 2, each of the insulating plates or layers 5 and associated grids 3 and 4 are in contact with each other.
- the element 5 shown in FIG. 3 is an insulating layer made of a thermoplastics material with a high dielectric constant and low dielectric loss such as polyethylene or polystyrene.
- the projections 2a of the plate 2 consist of pushed-back or stamped-out portions of small circular cross-section relative to the total area of the plate 2; the stamped-out portions 20 project relative to the median plane of the plate 2 on either side of this median plane.
- the combination of the plate 2, dielectric 5 and the grids 3 and 4 represented in FIG. 3 can be manufactured very simply by casting or softening thermoplastics material placed on each of the faces of the plate 2,
- the grids 3 and 4 being then applied with a certain pressure onto the thermoplastics material in such a way as to spread the latter over the entire area of the plate 2.
- the electric generator 1 shown in FIG. I comprises a step-up transformer 6, the primary winding of which is connected to a source 7 of alternating voltage such as the mains.
- the generator 1 also comprises means for half-wave rectifying the alternating voltage, which consists, in the case of FIG. 1, of a diode 8 having its anode coupled in series with the secondary winding of the transformer 6 and its cathode coupled to the terminal HT of the generator 1.
- the other terminal of the secondary winding is connected directly to earth, via a conductor.
- the diode 8 only allows the positive halfwaves of the alternating high tension voltage provided by the transformer 6 to pass and thus acts as a halfwave rectifier.
- the electric generator 1 includes a switch 10 associated with the primary winding of the transformer 6.
- the switch 10 can be actuated in such a way as to vary the transformation ratio by varying the number of turns of the primary supplied with a constant voltage by the mains 7.
- An adjustable, variable resistor 11 is also connected in series with the primary winding of the transformer 6 and makes it possible to adjust with precision the high tension voltage provided by the secondary of the transformer 6.
- the device represented in FIG. 1 also possesses means which make it possible to discharge the static electricity collected on the plate 2 and the grids 3 and 4 during the polarization of the latter by the half-wave rectified voltage provided by the generator 1.
- These discharge means are interposed between the plate 2 and the grids 3 and 4 and comprises in the present case, a resistor 9 of a few megohms.
- the circuit associated with the primary winding of the transformer is identical to that of FIG. 1.
- the transformer 6 comprises two secondary coils 6a wound as a pair in the opposite sense on the same core and having a common terminal 13 connected to earth.
- the anode of a diode 8 is connected to the other terminal of each secondary coil 60.
- a series of plate 2/dielectric S/grids 4 combinations, connected in parallel, is thus supplied from the HT terminal of each secondary coil 6a, each HT being connected to the cathode of its associated diode 8. It is possible for each element of these combinations to be identical to that shown in FIG. 3.
- the device can comprise a cylindrical metal tube 14 which is connected to earth and which acts as a pipeline for the gaseous effluent to be treated.
- the metal tube 14 surrounds coaxially a central electrode 15 of cylindrical shape which is connected to the terminals HT of the generator 1.
- a tube 21 made of a dielectric insulating material is placed coaxially inside the tube 14, and the tube 21 is surrounded by a cylindrical grid 16 which is itself connected to a terminal HT of the generator 1 via a resistor 17.
- an adjustable resistance 22 is interposed between earth and the grids 3 and 4 of each plate 2/dielectric S/grids 3 and 4 combination.
- the device represented in FIG. 2 comprises a plurality ofjuxtaposed elements in the general form of a plate 23, parallel to one another and delimiting between them zones of a treatment space 20 where the gaseous fluid, such as air, to be treated circulates, each element 23 consisting of a plate/dielectric/grids combination.
- the device for the treatment of air described above makes it possible to treat the air in a building very economically by only consuming of the order of 3 to 5 watts to treat m to 200 m of air per hour.
- This device can also treat residual effluents of local concentrations of pollutant gases in streets, crossroads, tunnels and the like.
