SINGLET OXYGEN GENERATOR USING FORMING THREADS Russian patent published in 2005 - IPC

FIELD: chemical technology; development of chemical lasers.

SUBSTANCE: proposed singlet oxygen generator has case, chlorine injector, throttling valve, and solution injector. Inserted in each hole of injector are at least two forming threads disposed at hole ends with gap formed in-between. Solution jet escaping the hole is then formed in its downward motion over surfaces of threads and between them. When chlorine flows between solution jets, chlorination reaction of alkali solution of hydrogen peroxide takes place; in the process singlet oxygen is produced and chlorine is recovered. Threads may pass from one hole at certain angle to one another, or they may cross one another, or come in contact with threads of other hole in solution injector. At least two threads provided in solution injector hole make it possible not only to guide the thread but also to control its flow and to form desired geometry of jet characteristic by varying relative position of threads in jet. Such design enables development of various types of singlet oxygen generators characterized in enlarged reaction surface and operating effectiveness with added advantage of enhanced operating reliability due to steady flow of jet between threads.

EFFECT: enlarged functional capabilities.
