Flue gas treatment by pulsed power

Abstract

Removal of NO/sub x/ has been studied using both pulsed, intense relativistic electron beam (IREB) and pulsed corona discharge. The dependence of NO/sub x/ concentration and the removal efficiency of NO/sub x/ on the number of IREB shot have been investigated within a distant gas chamber spatially isolated from the electron beam source. In the pulsed corona-discharge experiment, an SI-thyristor has been used in the pulsed power generator.
