Abstract

The application of corona discharge technology in gas purification and wastewater treatment has been received great attention in recent years. The configuration of discharge electrode and the discharge types directly affect the discharge power and the power density, and then affect the generation of active species as well as the removal efficiency of pollutants. A novel cylinder-type discharge reactor with saw-wheel-array electrodes was developed for removal of SO2/NOx from flue gas, and influence factors such as electrode structure (ratio of spacing of saw-wheel slices and discharge distance, herein defined as R) and power supply types (positive DC, negative DC, and pulse power) on discharge characteristics and the output power was discussed. The experimental results show that the current and output power of three types of discharges firstly increased with R increasing from 0.3–1.7, and then tended to a stability from 1.7–2.5; while the power density reached a maximum at the ratio of 1.7.
