GAS TREATMENT DEVICE AND GAS TREATMENT METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18751449 titled 'GAS TREATMENT DEVICE AND GAS TREATMENT METHOD

Simplified Explanation: This gas treatment device utilizes a plasma actuator to generate active oxygen in the airflow, treating the gas flowing through the device.

  • The device consists of a cylindrical casing with two openings, a plasma actuator, and an ozone decomposition device.
  • The plasma actuator is positioned to create an airflow from one opening to the other, while the ozone decomposition device breaks down ozone in the airflow.
  • Active oxygen is produced in the airflow, treating the gas flowing through the device.

Potential Applications: - Air purification systems - Odor removal in industrial settings - Water treatment processes

Problems Solved: - Elimination of harmful gases - Reduction of odors in enclosed spaces - Improvement of air quality in various environments

Benefits: - Efficient gas treatment - Enhanced air purification - Reduction of pollutants in the air

Commercial Applications: Title: Innovative Gas Treatment Device for Enhanced Air Quality This technology can be used in HVAC systems, industrial facilities, and medical settings to improve air quality and remove harmful pollutants.

Prior Art: Readers can explore prior patents related to plasma actuators, ozone decomposition devices, and gas treatment technologies to understand the evolution of this field.

Frequently Updated Research: Researchers are continually studying the effectiveness of plasma actuators in gas treatment devices and exploring new ways to enhance air purification processes.

Questions about Gas Treatment Devices: 1. How does the plasma actuator in this device contribute to air purification? 2. What are the key differences between this gas treatment device and traditional air filters?


Original Abstract Submitted

This gas treatment device is provided with a cylindrical casing having a first opening and a second opening on the opposite side from the first opening, a specific plasma actuator disposed in the casing, and an ozone decomposition device, wherein the plasma actuator is disposed so that the direction in which the induced current is emitted is oriented towards the second opening, and produces, by means of the induced current, an airflow in the casing such that the airflow is directed from the first opening towards the second opening, the ozone decomposition device causes ozone included in the airflow to decompose, generating active oxygen in the airflow and causing the airflow to contain the active oxygen, and a gas flowing in from the first opening is treated by the active oxygen.
