アブストラクト
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are widely used in various fields such as medicine and industry. However, since these VOCs are often harmful to the human body and are also causative agents of photochemical oxidants and suspended particulate matter, it is necessary to decompose them to below the standard value before releasing them into the atmosphere. Traditionally, VOCs have decomposed using combustion and photocatalytic methods. The combustion method decomposes VOCs with fuel at high temperatures of 600-800°C. This method is suitable for gas decomposition at high flow rates and high concentrations but is not suitable for gas decomposition at low concentrations due to the high energy consumption. The photocatalytic method, on the other hand, is a method of decomposition by the oxidizing action of photocatalyst, which has low running cost and is suitable for gas decomposition at small flow rates and low concentrations but is not suitable for large flow rates. In recent years, atmospheric pressure and low-temperature plasmas have been attracting attention as a low-energy method for decomposing gases with large flow rates and low concentrations. We are developing a large volume processing system using a large dielectric barrier discharge.
