Treatment of NOx from Diesel Engine Exhaust by Dielectric Barrier Discharge Method
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper reports improved performance of discharge plasma in filtered engine exhaust treatment. Our paper deals about the removal of NOX emissions from the diesel exhaust by electric discharge plasma. For the treatment of diesel exhaust a new type of reactor referred to as cross-flow dielectric barrier discharge reactor has been used, where the gas flow is perpendicular to the corona electrode. Experiments were conducted at different flow rates ranging from 2 l/min to 10 l/ min. The discharge plasma assisted barrier discharge reactor has shown promising results in NOX removal at high flow rates.
