Microwave Regeneration of Adsorbents and Plasma Conversion of VOCs.

摘要

A microwave torch was used in a study of the destruction efficiency of the volatile organic compounds trichloroethene and toluene that were chosen to represent the classes of chlorinated hydrocarbons and aromatic hydrocarbons respectively. These compounds were added to a flow that contained argon as a carrier gas in addition to oxygen and steam. The oxygen was necessary to ensure that undesirable by-products were not formed in the process.
