SINGLET OXYGEN PRODUCTION PROCESS Russian patent published in 1996 - IPC

FIELD: multipurpose continuous-action chemical iodine-oxygen laser. SUBSTANCE: process involves absorption of gaseous oxygen by solution and uses reduced form of oxidizer, electrochemical reduction of dissolved oxygen to superoxide O-2

, and also electrochemical oxidation of recovered oxidizer form, and oxidation of superoxide O-2 by product obtained to singlet oxygen O₂(1Δg). which is then extracted to collector; used as reduced oxidizer form are anions of chlorine Cl in inorganic solvent; gas phase above liquid solution surface is used as collector and does not absorb gaseous oxygen. EFFECT: facilitated procedure.
