Abstract

There are several important environmental problems in the world. One of them is the acid rain caused by combustionflue gases from thermal power plants, factories and automobiles. Different kinds of gas discharges, such as surface discharge, dc and ac corona discharge, silent discharge, and electron beam controlled discharge, have been studied for the removal NOx and SO2 from flue gases. The recent development of repetitive pulsed power generators gives the pulsed streamer coronadischarges a chance of success in the removal of NOx and SO2.In this paper, the experimental results of NOx and SO2 removal by a repetitive pulsed power generator are described.The actual flue gas at a thermal power plant was used. It is shown that about 90% of the NO was removed at a flow rate of0.81/min and a repetition rate of 7pps.
