Description

Ionization Gas Generator Using High Voltage Discharge

The present invention relates to an ionizing gas generating device using an electric discharge, in particular does not require a separate chemical or biological means, and has a simple configuration and effectively effective ionizing gas without equipment having a separate complicated configuration such as an ozone generator The present invention relates to an ionization gas generating device capable of generating a device, and reducing a manufacturing cost of the device and a treatment cost of air / wastewater.

Environmental pollution is a serious problem that threatens the survival of humanity in modern times, and it has become a very minor concern to mankind worldwide. Among the environmental pollution problems, air pollution is the root cause of global warming and the El Niño phenomenon, which has caused global extreme weather recently, and not only directly affects human health but also damages the ecosystem. .

As one way to solve this air pollution problem, various devices have been developed to electrically remove pollutants in the air. Electrical removal is an effective technique for removing particle-type impurities from air, which can remove contaminants in the air by passing contaminated air through an electromagnetic air filter. However, these devices fail to properly remove odors, such as odors generated from decaying cigarettes, and pose a problem that is harmful to the human body such as making a person feel sweating.

In contrast, ozone gas generators have been developed that are effective in supplying ozone to air to oxidize the microstructure of contaminants. However, the ozone generator is a very expensive equipment, which greatly increases the overall cost used for air purification.

On the other hand, water pollution is just as serious as air pollution, and the protection of increasingly depleted water resources has emerged as a problem facing mankind around the world. In order to protect the water resources essential for human survival, the protection of the natural water resources itself is important, but the effective use of water resources, saving water, and regeneration treatment such as sewage wastewater are more important.

When wastewater or wastewater is disposed of or discharged into nature without undergoing treatment, it is not only mixed with natural water resources, but also polluted, and contaminates other environments, thereby causing serious damage. Therefore, in order to prevent the occurrence of such environmental pollution problems, various efforts have been made to treat sewage or wastewater.

As part of such efforts, Korean Patent Publication No. 96-34103 (method of decolorization of dyeing wastewater using chlorine compounds and electrolysis; hereinafter referred to as Prior Art 1) or 97-74670 (organic wastewater using an immobilization carrier) Various sewage or wastewater treatment devices or methods have been developed, such as the methods and devices disclosed by the biological treatment methods and apparatus of the following;

However, the above-described conventional wastewater treatment method or apparatus has the following problems. That is, firstly, in the chemical treatment method as in the prior art 1, since a separate substance such as chlorine compound such as hydrochloric acid and calcium chloride must be added to the waste water in order to cause a chemical reaction, it is not only expensive but therefor, There is a risk that chemicals may cause unexpected secondary contamination. In addition, since an ozone generator by an ultraviolet lamp is used to cause a chemical reaction, the overall cost of wastewater treatment is greatly increased.

In addition, in the biological treatment method as described above in the prior art 2, there is a problem of an increase in cost due to the need for a separate microorganism for water purification, and a separate facility for cultivating such microorganisms. And various problems.

The present invention has been made to solve the conventional problems as described above, the object of the present invention is to provide pollutants in the air while having a simple configuration without having a separate complex configuration, such as ozone generator The present invention provides an ionization gas generator using an electric discharge that can effectively purify and reduce the manufacturing cost of the device.

Another object of the present invention is to provide an ionization gas generator using an electrical discharge that can be effectively used for the purification of sewage or wastewater without the aid of a separate chemical or biological means.

Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings will be described in detail with respect to the ionization gas generator 10 using the electric discharge according to an embodiment of the present invention.

1 is a schematic configuration diagram of an ionization gas generator 10 using electric discharge according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 1, the ionization gas generator 10 using electric discharge according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a housing 11 made of an electrically nonconductive material. The air inlet 12 and the air outlet 13 are formed in the housing 11. Preferably, the air inlet 12 is provided with a first blower 40 to blow air into the housing 11 at a predetermined pressure. Moreover, the 2nd blower 42 is provided in the air outlet 13, and the air which flows out from the housing 11 can be blown to a desired place by predetermined pressure.

In the housing 11, a plurality of first electrodes 16 and second electrodes 17 are vertically disposed. The second electrode 17 is disposed around the first electrode 16 at 90 degree intervals. As a result, a dense flow of electrons can be formed between the first electrode 16 and the second electrode 17. At this time, the interval between the first electrode 16 and the second electrode 17 may be selected according to the voltage applied between the first electrode 16 and the second electrode 17, the voltage between them is about 10,000 In the case of ˜150,000 Volts, the spacing between the two electrodes is preferably about 30-100 mm.

On the other hand, the first electrode 16 is wrapped by the insulating insulator 18. The insulating insulator 18 may be made of an electrical dielectric or insulator such as glass or ceramic. The first electrode 16 and the second electrode 17 are each connected to the power source 20 through a transformer 22 for generating a high voltage. Therefore, a high voltage is applied between the first electrode 16 and the second electrode 17. In addition, a capacitor 30 is provided between the first electrode 16 and the transformer 22 to stabilize the applied voltage and prevent the loss of the voltage. Preferably, transformer 22 is made of a high voltage insulator capacitor.

Hereinafter, the operation of the ionization gas generator 10 using the electric discharge according to an embodiment of the present invention having the above configuration will be described.

First, the operator operates the transformer 22 connected to the power supply 20 to apply a high voltage between the first electrode 16 and the second electrode 17. The applied voltage is preferably about 10,000-150,000 V. At this time, electrons are emitted from the cathode to the anode due to the high voltage applied between the first electrode 16 and the second electrode 17. When an alternating voltage is applied as shown, electrons are emitted from both electrodes. . The second electrode 17 is arranged at intervals of 90 degrees around the first electrode 16, so that a dense flow of electrons is formed between the first electrode 16 and the second electrode 17.

Next, air is introduced into the housing 11 through the air inlet 12. Air introduced into the housing 11 passes between the first electrode 16 and the second electrode, at which time contaminants in the air are purified by the action of electrons discharged therebetween. That is, in the air flowing into the housing 11, ions such as OH ⁻ , O ^{2 −} and oxidizing gas components such as ozone (O ₃ ) and hydrogen dioxide (HO ₂ ) are generated by the action of the discharged electrons.

The purified air in the housing (11) is discharged through the air outlet (13), and the operator can use the treated air containing this ionized and oxidizing gas component for a predetermined purpose by using the second blower (42). Can be. That is, the above-mentioned process air ionized and containing the oxidizing gas component can be used directly for air cleaning or as an oxidant of the material.

Alternatively, treated air containing ions or oxidizing gas components may be used for purification of wastewater. In other words, the air pressurized and blown into the housing 11 by the first blower 40 is purified as described above. When the purified air is extracted from the housing 11 to the outside and permeated into the waste water, the polymer carbon is mainly used. Pollutants in the wastewater composed of compounds are converted into low-molecular substances such as inorganic compounds by collisions, disturbances, dissociation, or substitutions with emitted electrons, thereby purifying water. On the other hand, when used as a waste water purifier, it is also possible to use a method of passing the waste water after the treated air is bubbled using a bubble generator as in the conventional method.

As described above, in the ionization gas generator 10 according to the present invention, an oxidizing gas component such as ozone and the like can be generated without the need for expensive equipment such as an ozone generator by an ultraviolet lamp. These components can be used to purify the contaminated air, there is an advantage that can reduce the cost of the air purification process. In addition, it is possible to reduce the treatment cost of sewage and wastewater that can be used for the purification of sewage or wastewater without requiring a separate chemical or biological means.
