Research Abstract

Two different types of reactors are constructed for gas purification ; (1) Deposition type reactor and (2) Sweep-out type reactor. In the deposition type reactor, the negative ions produced by corona discharge deposit on the anode surface after they lose the electron there. The anode of the sweep-out type reactor is a porous cylinder made of sintered metal. Through this cylinder a certain amount of gas is swept out to remove the gas with high concentration of electrophilic component from the anode. The following results on the removal of sulfur compound, oxygen and iodine were obtained.
1. Deposition type reactor
Hydrogen sulfide, dimethyl sulfide, methyl mercaptan, sulfur dioxide, carbonyl sulfide and carbon disulfide can be removed in the deposition type reactor, and the influence of discharge current, inlet concentration and gas flow rate on the removal ratio can be explained using the proposed simulation model. When oxygen coexists, the removal ratio of sulfur compounds becomes high and reaction by-products are produced. The by-products can be neglected as the discharge current becomes large. The sulfur deposited on the anode surface was observed by an electron probe micro-analysis (EPMA).
2. Sweep-out type reactor
Oxygen and iodine can be removed by the sweep-out type reactor, and the removal ratio can be simulated using the proposed model. The simulated results show that the removal ratio depends on the reactor shape and the larger radius of reactor gives a better removal ratio under a given reactor volume. The optimum operating conditions are determined from the balance of inlet concentration, gas flow rate, rate constant of electron attachment and deposition probability of negative ions on the anode surface.
