.To all whom it may concern..-
Be it known that we, ALOYS ADRIEN NAVILLE, PHILIPPE AUGUSTE GUYE, and
CHARLES EUGNE Gurn, gentlemen, of Geneva, Switzerland, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in lElectrical Gas- Reaction Apparatus, ofwhich the following is a. speciiication.
Itis c. well-known fact that the reactions produced bythe passage of an electric spark in a gaseous mixture contained in an cudiometric tube are very often. reducedbythe fact that the electric spark-very rapidly decomposes'the products of such reactions.
Now the objects of this invention are, first, to constantly and rapidly renew the gases which are exposed to the action of the elec- -tric spark; secondly, to preserve the products formed therebyfrom its decomposing action; thirdly, to compel the whole of the gaseous mass tepass in immediate'proximity vto the spark.
A further object of the said invention is to considerably increase the produce or yield of the eudiometric reactions, which, in the apparatus used up to now, is generally limited.
Qurimproved gas-reaction apparatus realizes the above-mentioned three conditions. It can assume various forms of execution, and we will now proceed to describe one of them by way of example, reference being made to` the accompanying drawing, in which the iigure is a detail sectionalview of suicient of theapparatus to enable our invention to be clearly understood.
Ouigapparatus is constructed so as to have a seri sof sparks passing simultaneously in the same gaseous current. To this end we interpolate, as shown in the drawing, between 'two terminal electrodes Band C. a certain number of` intermediate metallic tubes B C f B" C", these tubes being insulated by means 'of tubular bearings E of insulating material and connected to a 'tubular collector D. The said electrodes may also be made tubular and be connected to thc collector D. They are inclosed ina bell A, provided with a pipe'A, through which the gases to be treated are y forcednto the bell A. The said gases pass through the tubes B C, Bf Ef; and 1li C",
where they are actcdnpon by thc sparks produced by any suitable source of electricity, .the two poles of which are connected to the said electrodes B and C. The products of the reaction escape through the tubular collector D. With this device the whole of the gases; willpass through the region where the electric sparks are prodnccd,and the products of the reaction are then led away-into any suitable apparatus.
The electrodes may be composed of any suitable material-for example, coal, platinum, bronze, copper, nickel, ferro-nickel, various alloys, beg-the selection of the materials depending essentially on the nature of the gases which are to be treatedor of the reactions to be eected, the substance of the electrodes being capable of being used in such reactions, if necessary.
Our apparatus .may be used without distinction with an kind of electric current (continuous varia le current,'alterna.ting current, &c.) provided the tension be sucient'.
The circulation of the gases in 'our appara. tus maybe obtained in any suitablemanner, for instance, 'by means of pumps orl fans, Giiards or Kortings injectors or exhausters, die., producing either an exhaustion or a compression of the saidgases.
It willbe seen that our improved apparatus fory electrical gas reactionsi'is diifereut' from the well-known eudiometers', which can only be used with a limited volume and in which the reactions are also. limited', our apparatus enabling .one to produce a constant circulation of the gases which are to be treated, to increase the number of sparks, to avoid a further decomposition of the products formed, to secure a continuous renewing of the .gases in proximity to the sparks, and to bringunder the action of the latter the whole of the gaseous mass.
By way of example of the' numerous applications of our apparatus we will point out only the production of nitric acid obtained by means of wet air circulating in an appa'- ratus the electrodes of which are made of l coal7 and the 4production of acetylene by means of hydrogen circulating in such an apparatus.
What we claim is- 1. An apparatus for electrical gas reactionY IOO ' of Aany kind of electric current, comprisinga series of independent insulated metallic tubes interposed in line between two electrodes'cennectedto, oppositepoles of a source of electricity, and gas-conduits communicating with the inside and outside of Said tubular electrodes respectively, substantially as andfor the purpose speciiied.
Thefcemhinationrin anv apparatus for electrical gas reactions, ofindependentalined tubular electrodes-a tubular' collector, insuIating-tubes connecting theytubular electrodes with the collector, and connections between said electrodes and a suitable source of electricity', substantially as shown and de scribed. f In testimony whereof we have signed our names to this specication in th'epresence of twfo subscribing witnesses. i
