In this paper, a 3D numerical simulation of a downdraft plasma gasifier with plasma reactions is conducted. The effects of the equivalence ratio (ER) on the syngas properties in the presence of the plasma reactions are investigated. The boundary conditions for the air plasma inlet of the gasifier are obtained from the outlet of a 10 kW microwave plasma generator. A conventional gasification analysis is carried out to validate the model. In the second part of the study, plasma reactions are added to conventional gasification equations. Mole fractions of the constituents of the syngas and temperature contours are obtained for different ER values. According to the results, with the increase of ER from 0.20 to 0.45 the lower heating value of the produced syngas decreased from 1536.6 kcal/m3 to 751.8 kcal/m3. 相似文献

The present study measured plasma viscosity using three different viscometers: Ostwald capillary-tube viscometer, Brookfield rotating viscometer, and scanning capillary-tube viscometer (SCTV). The plasma viscosity data obtained using Ostwald viscometer at 37 °C with the conversion constant provided by its manufacturer were in good agreement with those obtained using Brookfield viscometer at 37 °C. In addition, the plasma viscosity data obtained using SCTV were in excellent agreement with those from Brookfield viscometer. However, when the Ostwald viscometer is used for plasma viscosity measurements at the room temperature, one should be cautioned because the conversion constant provided by manufacturers may not be applicable to the room temperature as the surface tension of plasma depends on temperature, affecting the accuracy of the plasma viscosity measurement. 相似文献

The initial transition state in the plasma decomposition of disilane was investigated by measuring the electron energy in a disilane plasma, and by studying both optical emission spectroscopy and film properties.At the beginning of the discharge, the emission of SiH* was not observed, and the electron energy in the plasma was about 10 times lower than in the steady state. These phenomena were caused by an abrupt increase of the pressure just after the ignition, followed by disilane decomposition.Under insufficient energy conditions, production of silylene is highly favoured by the disilane decomposition which gives porous hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) films.We shall prove the importance to shorten the initial transition period in which the plasma energy is insufficient for disilane decomposition. Keeping the gas pressure constant at the beginning of the reaction enables to avoid the depression of the plasma energy and to obtain a-Si:H films with good optoelectronic properties. 相似文献

A simple analytical method is proposed for particle-gas mass transfer calculations under plasma conditions. This method, called the Z-potential method, fully accounts for the temperature variation of the gas transport properties while permitting use of the convenient isothermal expression Sh = 2.0. The Z-potential approach is also found to be extremely useful in ascertaining the Knudsen discontinuum effect on mass transfer between the plasma gas and a small particle. A predictive model for the Knudsen effect, developed by combining the Z-potential approach with the jump theory, is illustrated in detail by means of a case study on a nitrogen plasma system. 相似文献

This paper describes a study of molecular hydrogen production from ethanol decomposition by argon microwave discharge at atmospheric pressure. Different Ar flows (in the 0.50–1.5 L/min range) were tested while ethanol was constantly supplied at 0.22 g/h. Plasma showed a great stability throughout the whole operation range and in all cases, full ethanol conversion was obtained, the major product being hydrogen (2.1–2.5 mol per mole of ethanol). Other products were carbon monoxide, methane and acetylene with traces of some heavier molecules (e.g. diacetylene) and carbon deposits. The fact that heavier molecules are only present as traces is explained as the result of the high electron density (thus inducing multiple collisions) whereas gas flows determine the residence time of particles into the plasma and consequently the temperature, which in turn affects the different reactions. As Ar flow decreases (i.e. residence time increases), more carbon deposits (which were found to have some soot origin) are obtained. 相似文献

A method for manufacturing metal-supported SOFCs with atmospheric plasma spraying (APS) is presented, making use of aqueous suspension feedstock for the electrolyte layer and dry powder feedstock for the anode and cathode layers. The cathode layer was deposited first directly onto a metal support, in order to minimize contact resistance, and to allow the introduction of added porosity. The electrolyte layers produced by suspension plasma spraying (SPS) were characterized in terms of thickness, permeability, and microstructure, and the impact of substrate morphology on electrolyte properties was investigated. Fuel cells produced by APS were electrochemically tested at temperatures ranging from 650 to 750 °C. The substrate morphology had little effect on open circuit voltage, but substrates with finer porosity resulted in lower kinetic losses in the fuel cell polarization. 相似文献

As the world races toward its urban future, the quantity of wastes, one of the vital by-products of an enhancement in the standards of living, is exponentially rising. The treatment of wastes employing plasma is an upcoming area of research and is globally used for the simultaneous processing of diverse wastes coupled with the recovery of energy and materials. Ground-breaking and cost-effective thermal plasma technologies with high efficiencies are a prerequisite for the growth of this technology. This paper delivers an evaluation of the fundamentals such as the generation and characteristics of the thermal plasma along with the various types of wastes treatable by thermal plasma and the related issues. Furthermore, the authors discuss different types of advanced technologies as well as the material and energy recovery techniques and their present status worldwide, at lab-scale and industrial scale. The application of different thermal plasma technologies is discussed as a means to promote this technology into alternative applications, which require higher flexibility and greater efficiency. Mathematical modeling studies are also assessed with an objective to derive ideal conditions and permissible limits for the reactors and to test a variety of waste materials. A strategy to improve the feasibility and sustainability of waste utilization is via technological advancement and the minimization of environmental effects and process economics. This paper sheds light on diverse areas of waste utilization via thermal plasma as a potentially sustainable and environmentally friendly technology. 相似文献

A novel approach in hydrogen production via reforming of hydrocarbons that will use catalytic properties of non-equilibrium plasma gas discharge is presented. CH4/CO2 mixtures are heated to a temperature of 900°C, so that mixture will have approximately 80% of the energy required for thermal reforming. Preheated mixtures are then processed in a Pulsed Corona Discharge type plasma source and the catalytic effect of a non-equilibrium plasma is observed for promotion of hydrogen generation. 相似文献

The correlation between phase composition hydride forming alloysZr-V-Fe and Zr-V-Fe-B-O, their hydrogen sorption characteristics, and electrotransfercharacteristics, in the gas phase of alloy-hydrogen systems under gas discharge burning in planarmagnetron whose cathode was covered with a powder metal hydride layer, has been established.It has been shown that the balance of gas discharge particles is primarily determined by thepeculiarities of the discharge plasma interaction with metal hydride. 相似文献

Plasma is receiving attention as a prospective tool for the reforming process of obtaining synthesis gas and hydrogen. Although many reports on plasma-induced reforming have been introduced, detailed correlations between the reaction paths and plasma parameters remain unclear. Therefore, to figure out the relative role and dominance of plasma-controlled chemistry in the reforming process, we investigate diverse reaction paths in reforming CH4. The arc column length is proposed as a universal process parameter of the plasma-reforming process, and a rationale to support the proposition is provided As a result, the dependence of the reforming process on the arc column length is explained. Three different reaction regimes, defined according to the arc column length and plasma chemistry in each regime, are addressed. The arc column length controls the thermal environment of the reaction and activates different reaction pathways depending on its length. This concept of control also enables the discovery of efficient ways of reforming. The increase in thermal efficiency by controlling the arc column reveals possibilities for optimizing the plasma-induced reforming process. 相似文献

Refining of metallurgical-grade silicon by inductive plasma 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

A new process combining inductive plasma torch and electromagnetic stirring of molten silicon in a cold crucible has been developed to refine upgraded metallurgical silicon. The addition of reactive gases to the plasma leads to volatilisation of impurities at the liquid silicon surface. The concentration of boron impurities decreased from 15 ppmw in the raw material to less than 2 ppmw after the plasma treatment. The most volatile form of boron was BOH, which was obtained by simultaneous treatment with oxygen and hydrogen. The limitation in boron volatilisation is due to the formation, at high oxygen flow rate, of a silica layer at the surface of the molten silicon, which results in a dramatic drop of the volatilisation rate. In contrast to boron, the concentration of phosphorus was reduced by only a factor of two, although the remainder seems to be electrically neutral. Thermodynamic studies suggest that phosphorus could be trapped as phosphate in combination with metallic impurities. Cells made of material produced using this technique exhibited a conversion efficiency of 12.4%. 相似文献

High temperature plasma gasification of wood is evaluated for the production of a fuel gas (syngas) for combined heat and power production. The advantages of plasma by comparison with existing thermochemical processes are in the high heating value gases, process control and the lower energy consumption per unit of output. From one kilogram of 20% moisture wood it is possible to obtain 4.6-4.8 MJ of electricity (net of electricity input) and 9.1-9.3 MJ of thermal energy when using wood with average elemental composition and with a LHV energy content of 13.9 MJ, when using a combined Brayton and Steam cycle generating plant. Experimental data from an air plasma gasification plant using alternating current (AC) plasma torches was integrated with a thermodynamic model showing that the chemical energy in the produced syngas was 13.8-14.3 MJ kg−1 with a power input of 2.2-3.3 MJ kg−1. 相似文献

Nowadays hydrogen is considered as a clean energy carrier and fuel of the future. That is why the interest in production and storage of hydrogen is still increasing. One of the promising technology is using microwave plasma for hydrogen production. In this study we propose two types of an atmospheric pressure microwave plasma source (MPS) for hydrogen production via methane conversion. The first one was a nozzleless waveguide-supplied coaxial-line-based. The second one was a nozzleless waveguide-supplied metal-cylinder-based. They can be operated with microwave frequency of 2.45 GHz and power up to a few kW with a high gas flow rates (up to several thousands l/h). We present experimental results concerning electrical properties of the MPS, plasma visualization, spectroscopic diagnostics and hydrogen production. The experiment was carried out with methane flow rate up to 12,000 l/h. An additional nitrogen or carbon dioxide swirl flow was used. The absorbed microwave power was up to 5000 W. Our experiments show that MPSs presented in this paper have a high potential for hydrogen production via hydrocarbon conversion. 相似文献

The paper shows, that a low-temperature plasma initiated in liquid media in interelectrode discharge gap is able to decompose hydrogen containing organic molecules resulting in obtaining gaseous products with volume part of hydrogen higher than 90% (up to gas chromatography data). Tentative assessments of energy efficiency, calculated with regard for hydrogen and feedstock heating value and energy consumption, have shown efficiency factor of 60–70%, depending on the source mixture composition. Theoretical model calculations of discharge current and voltage have been performed; the values are in good accordance with experimental data. 相似文献
