Benefits of plasma based technologies
The benefits of plasma systems are
their simplicity and flexibility in treating a
wide range of different pollutants, often simultaneously.
They are economic to use, provide instantaneous
response to the application of power, do not require
high temperatures and often avoid the requirements
for use, storage and handling of additional chemicals.
Specifically;
- Destroys pollutants at low gas temperatures
- Exhaust gas temperatures for many applications
/ operating conditions are not sufficient for
thermal or catalytic regeneration.
- Avoids the need to artificially raise the
exhaust gas by means of additives or heaters
which can be costly and inefficient
- Operates instantaneously with the
application of power
- does not need to wait for exhaust gas temperature
to rise
- gives enhanced flexibility and economy through
electronic control of the plasma for optimum
performance to best suit each particular operating
condition.
- Simultaneous removal of different
pollutants
- Simultaneous treatment of NOx, SOx, VOCs,
PFCs, hydrocarbons, dioxins and furans and tolerant
to particulates.
- Does not require additives or low
sulphur fuel
- avoids costly chemical additive systems and
associated ash production that may be required
on comparable catalytic systems.
- Can operate in markets where low sulphur fuel
is not available.
- Ease of installation and operation
- Can often be fitted to an existing application
without major modification.
- Also suitable for retrofit application.
- Scaleable technology for different
applications
