APPARATUS FOR THERMOCHEMICALLY TREATING ORGANIC RAW MATERIAL Russian patent published in 1997 - IPC

FIELD: chemical engineering. SUBSTANCE: invention consists in the following. Discharge electrode is made in the form of sharp equal- size protrusions 4 disposed on inner side surface of precipitation chamber 3. Positive electrode 5 is hollow and has means to fill it with cold water, which offers possibility, in operation, of its functioning simultaneously as condenser to settle liquid particles of air sol formed when raw material is thermally decomposed in casing 1. Electrode 5 is disposed in precipitation chamber 3 in such a way as to allow it to form, with apexes of protrusions 4, channel 11 to remove air sol formed in casing 1. Protrusions 4 become higher in direction along channel 11 toward removal of air sol. Apparatus has two identical precipitation chambers 3 located on opposite sides of casing 1. EFFECT: increased processing degree and degree of purification of gas fractions of processing products. 2 cl, 2 dwg
