By reacting these radicals with harmful components in exhaust gas, CO is converted into CO 2 , SOx is converted into SO 3 , NOx is converted into NO 2 , and changes into a harmless form or a form easily collected. Further, when the gas to be treated is the exhaust gas from the refuse incinerator, dioxins and the like contained in the gas are decomposed and rendered harmless. When ammonia, lime, etc. are blown into the reactor where these reactions occur or in the downstream of the reactor, the SOx component and NOx component change to solids such as ammonium sulfate and ammonium nitrate or calcium sulfate and calcium nitrate. An exhaust gas purification is achieved by providing an electrostatic precipitator or a bag filter and collecting them.

In the case of using the wire type discharge electrode and the plate type counter electrode shown in FIG. 5, the plate is elongated in the passage direction of the exhaust gas and a large number of wires are installed. By forming one electrode unit and arranging multiple electrode units in the direction perpendicular to the passing direction, it is possible to scale up, and it has the advantage that a large amount of exhaust gas can be treated. Since the plasma has a characteristic of being intermittently generated, there is a problem that the generated plasma has a sparse portion and the contact efficiency between the plasma and the exhaust gas is not good.

Since the progressing direction of the generated plasma (21) is parallel to the direction of the exhaust gas flow channel (30), the exhaust gas (18) and the plasma (21) are constantly in contact with each other, and the treatment efficiency is improved. Furthermore, the rate of progress of the generated plasma (21) is

According to the plasma-type exhaust gas purifying apparatus of the present invention, since the density of the discharge needles can be adjusted so as to prevent sparse areas in the plasma, the contact efficiency between the plasma and the exhaust gas is good. Moreover, since the progress direction of the generated plasma is parallel to the flow of the exhaust gas and the exhaust gas comes into contact with the plasma in multiple stages, a sufficient contact time between the exhaust gas and the plasma is obtained, and the treatment efficiency is improved. Also, when scaling up,
Since it suffices to increase the area of the support plate, it is possible to easily scale up.
