The high-voltage electrode was placed above the surface Of the wastewater while the ground electrode was submerged in the wastewater. The electrical discharge starting at the tip of the high voltage electrode propagated toward the surface of the wastewater, producing various oxidative radicals and ozone. Oxygen was used as the working gas instead of air to prevent nitrogen oxides from forming. The simulated wastewater was made up with amaranth, which is a kind of azo dye. The results obtained showed that the chromaticity of the wastewater was almost completely removed within an hour. The ultraviolet/visible spectra of the wastewater treated by the electrical discharge revealed that the total hydrocarbon level also decreased significantly.展开更多
The emission spectra of excited radicals（OH（A^2E）,O（3p^3 P）,Hα（3P）） and emissive species（N2^＋（B^2∑u^＋）,N2（C3Πu）） produced by positive pulsed high-voltage needle-plane corona discharges in atmospheri...The emission spectra of excited radicals（OH（A^2E）,O（3p^3 P）,Hα（3P）） and emissive species（N2^＋（B^2∑u^＋）,N2（C3Πu）） produced by positive pulsed high-voltage needle-plane corona discharges in atmospheric N2 and O2 flows wetted with 10%H2O at 80 ℃ are used to investigate the relative concentrations of the produced radicals.The results indicate that the tendencies of the concentrations of radicals with discharge conditions are similar to each other due to their similar excitation processes by electron collision.The influence of oxygen flow mixed with the nitrogen flow on the emission intensities of O（3p^5P → 3s^5S2^0.）,Hα（3P → 2S）,N2＋（B^2∑u^＋ → X^2∑g＋0-0）,and N2（C^3Πu → B^3Πg 1-0） is presented.When the flow rate of oxygen addition is varied from 0-30 ml min^-1,the emission intensities of O（3p^5P → 3s^5S2^0.）,Hα（3P → 2s）,and N2^＋（B^2∑u^＋ →X^2∑g 0-0） increase and reach a maximum.Then,if the oxygen flow rate increases further,the emission intensities tend to decrease.However,the intensity of N2（C^3Πu → B^3Πg1-0） decreases monotonously with the increasing oxygen flow,which indicates that the electron density decreases with the increasing oxygen flow.By the tendencies of the relative intensities to N2（C^3Πu → B^3Πg 1-0）,the concentrations of the total produced O,H,and N2^＋ are shown to increase with the oxygen flow.Based on the reactions for the production of H and O without and with the addition of O2,the analytic solutions for H and O production are derived in accordance with the experimental results.展开更多
